The NBA has turned into a tag team tournament of sorts with all of the electric duo’s across the league. And to the surprise of some I’m sure, the Mavericks could have one of the best, with Luka Doncic soaring into his sophomore campaign, and Kristaps Porzingis returning from injury to look the best that we’ve ever seen him physically.
That pair got off to a terrific start Wednesday against the lowly Washington Wizards in their season opener, combining for 57 points and a victory. As the Mavs try to build chemistry between stars, the New Orleans Pelicans will look to find a rhythm of their own with a roster that goes at least 12 deep —and that’s without rookie phenom Zion Williamson.
