The Mavericks are missing key players with Kyrie Irving, Dante Exum, and Daniel Gafford all sidelined. D’Angelo Russell and Max Christie are handling more touches, but the offense has lacked a court leader. Dallas needs to find more open looks from three-point territory and control the boards to avoid falling into an early-season hole.
