Head-to-head statistics Mavericks - Pacers
Dallas Mavericks Team Overview
The Dallas Mavericks are showing mediocre form, having won just one of their four regular season games. While their average points scored remain solid thanks to an aggressive offensive approach, their defense doesn't always meet expectations: over the last ten games, their points allowed are above the league average.
In their previous matchup, Jason Kidd's squad put up a fight against the reigning champions Oklahoma City Thunder, but ultimately fell short (94-101). Davis delivered another strong performance with 26 points and 11 rebounds, but the rest of the team struggled under the pressure of the league's best defense. Dallas managed to get few open looks and converted only 38% of their shots. They hope to get back on the winning track against less skilled opponents.

Indiana Pacers Team Overview
The Indiana Pacers find themselves in a tough spot, with a five-game losing streak (including preseason) negatively impacting their standing in the Eastern Conference. Despite the setbacks, the Pacers strive to maintain their signature high-paced play and heavily rely on long-range shooting as a key element of their offense. However, their weak performance under the basket leads to a significant number of points conceded.
At the start of the season, last year's finalists have already faced a slew of injuries-Jones, McConnell, and Nembhard are all sidelined. Considering Indiana is already playing without their leader Haliburton, it's no surprise that results have been unfavorable. Yet, in their last matchup, these issues didn't prevent them from going toe-to-toe with a strong Minnesota side (110-114). It's crucial for them to endure this rough patch and make up lost ground once all their key players return to health.
