Game Preview

Klay Thompson and Luka Doncic team up for the second time this season as the Dallas Mavericks take on the Phoenix Suns on Saturday night. Thompson, now with the Mavericks after 13 seasons with Stephen Curry and the Warriors, made an impressive debut with 22 points and six 3-pointers in Dallas’ 120-109 win over the Spurs. His arrival bolsters Dallas’ offensive firepower alongside Doncic, who tallied 28 points, 10 rebounds, and eight assists, and Kyrie Irving, who added 15 points.

“It’s great playing with Klay,” Doncic said. “He makes things easier for everyone.” Thompson, meanwhile, praised Doncic’s skill: “He manipulates the game like no one else.”

On the Suns’ side, Phoenix split their first two games in Los Angeles, beating the Clippers in overtime before falling to the Lakers despite a 22-point lead. Kevin Durant and Devin Booker combined for 53 points, but Phoenix coach Mike Budenholzer is pushing for more inside looks to create better shot opportunities.

Jusuf Nurkic, limited by fouls, struggled defensively as Anthony Davis scored 35 points, though Budenholzer still sees Nurkic as a key paint defender.

With both teams featuring star power and coming off games with notable performances, Saturday’s showdown is set to be an electrifying matchup for bettors and fans alike.
