The series between the LA Clippers and Dallas Mavericks shifts to Texas with the teams knotted at 1-1. Dallas tied the series following a 96-93 response in Game 2.
Season Series
Last season the teams split their four-game regular season series each winning twice while LA took two of the three meetings this year.
Dallas holds the all-time record between the squads with 100 victories in 173 matches.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Thursday, April 25th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Friday, April 26th.
LA Clippers
Kawhi Leonard was back on the court for Game 2 after missing nine games (out since March 31st). The superstar offered 15 points and seven rebounds in his return but his impact was more of a negative than a positive for the Clippers.
While the Clippers moved the ball and had pace in Game 1 they seemed to opt more for isolation and were looking for Leonard instead of just running their offense.
Naturally, Leonard was rusty and the team needs time to rebuild their chemistry but given they’re in a series they can’t afford to take too much time to get back on track.
Clippers Stats
LA ranks fourth offensively (117.9), and 16th defensively (114.6) while their net differential is plus +3.4 which ranks seventh in the association.
Through the second game of the playoffs, they rank 10th offensively (109.2), and fifth defensively (104.3) with a plus +4.9 net differential ranking sixth.
On the season the Clippers struggled against the spread with a 39-45 record through 84 matches.
Clippers Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Kawhi Leonard, SF (questionable—knee)
Dallas Mavericks
It was a night-and-day effort by the Mavericks in their two matches in LA. They looked unprepared and uninspired in Game 1 but in Game 2 they punched first playing with aggression and focus and a much better defensive effort.
Luka Doncic led the way with 32 points while Kyrie Irving offered 23 points and PJ Washington was the x-factor dropping in 18 points primarily in the fourth quarter to seal the victory.
Mavericks Stats
Dallas ranks eighth offensively (117.0) and 18th in defensive rating (114.9) with a net differential of plus +2.1 that ranks 15th overall.
Through the second game of the playoffs, they rank 12th offensively (1o4.3) and seventh defensively (109.2) with a minus -4.9 net differential ranking 11th.
The Mavericks were one of the better bets against the spread this season with a 49-35 record through 84 matches.
Mavericks Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Daniel Gafford, C (questionable—back)
- Tim Hardaway Jr., SG (downgraded to OUT — ankle)
- Olivier-Maxence Prosper, PF (OUT Friday—ankle)

Free LA Clippers vs. Dallas Mavericks NBA Prediction:
For Doncic this matchup is personal given LA sent him home in two of his three postseason appearances (the one time Dallas advanced they didn’t face the Clippers).
With the series now a best-of-five the team who garners victory in Game 3 will have the psychological advantage although a split in Dallas wouldn’t be surprising as this feels like a series destined to go the distance.
Expect Ty Lue to have made adjustments while Jason Kidd needs to inspire his squad to keep up their defensive focus and rebounding effort although Gafford may not be available.
