After a brief appearance in the previous game against the Brooklyn Nets—where he logged 12 points and six rebounds—Davis is back and ready to make an impact. His presence on the floor instantly upgrades the Mavericks’ defense, which is crucial as they prepare to battle an Orlando Magic squad known for its aggressive offensive play. Davis’s ability to protect the rim and disrupt key scorers will be pivotal in determining the game’s outcome.
The good news for Dallas doesn’t stop there. Alongside Davis, both Brandon Williams and Caleb Martin have shaken off injuries and are available, giving the Mavericks one of their deepest rotations in recent memory. While notable players like PJ Washington, Kyrie Irving, Daniel Gafford, Dereck Lively II, Dante Exum, Olivier-Maxence Prosper, and Kessler Edwards remain sidelined, the ten active players on the roster represent the team’s strongest lineup in weeks.
Against Orlando, Dallas needs a physical defensive approach to counteract the Magic’s offensive firepower. The Mavericks will look to clamp down on key scorers and control the pace of the game. With postseason hopes on the line and tiebreaker stakes at play, every defensive stop and offensive possession carries weight. The Mavericks know what’s at stake—they need to seize this moment to keep their playoff dreams alive.
