Dereck Lively II's injuries could open the door for a center battle that the Mavericks never saw coming.
After what seemed like weeks without a Dallas Mavericks victory, the team finally ended its losing streak with a thrilling overtime 138-133 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday night. Not only was the game back and forth all night long, but for the first time in what feels like a decade, the American Airlines Center and its fans were cheering and standing on their feet.
