The trip to China could negatively affect the Mavericks’ performance now and beyond

The Dallas Mavericks are having a slightly different preseason this year. Dallas will spend about a week in China and play two games against the Philadelphia 76ers on October 5th and 8th.

Their flight to Shanghai came on the wings of a plane whose interior looked like a luxury yacht from what Instagram stories showed us.

That plane is nicer than any hotel room most of us will ever stay in. The flight takes just over 15 hours so the team landed in Shanghai early in the morning for local Dallas time which was around 6 p.
