The Dallas Mavericks ask a lot of their role players. While Luka Doncic is the engine, Jalen Brunson and Spencer Dinwiddie, to a lesser extent, are expected to carry the offensive load. The duties of not only exerting immense defensive pressure but also knocking down timely shots fall elsewhere.
It’s up to Reggie Bullock, Dorian Finney-Smith, and Maxi Kleber to perform at a high level on both sides of the ball night in and night out. If one or more of them isn’t up to the challenge, it can be the difference between a win and a loss.
