The Dallas Mavericks roll into Frost Bank Center looking to snap their brutal four-game skid and salvage their playoff hopes, but they'll have to do it with a potentially depleted roster as seven key players remain questionable with various injuries.

While Dallas has historically dominated this matchup with a 9-1 record in their last 10 meetings, the Spurs' recent offensive explosion - shooting over 52% from the field in their last three games - could spell trouble for a Mavericks defense that's giving up north of 118 points on the road.

The stage is set for an intriguing clash as the home team Spurs (26-35) look to capitalize on their hot shooting against the visiting Mavericks (32-32), who desperately need to right the ship before their postseason dreams slip away.

San Antonio Spurs vs. Dallas Mavericks preview

The struggling Mavericks roll into Frost Bank Center looking to snap their brutal four-game skid, with their playoff hopes hanging precariously in the Western Conference's 10th spot.

Dallas's recent defensive woes have been painful to watch, giving up a whopping 118 points per game on the road, while Klay Thompson's been doing his best to keep the offense afloat with a solid 28-point showing in their last outing.

The young Spurs, fresh off a mixed bag of results, have found their shooting groove lately - they're knocking down an impressive 52% from the field over their last three games.

Devin Vassell's been on fire for San Antonio, coming off a monster 37-point performance where he shot a blistering 70% from the field against Brooklyn.

While Dallas has historically owned this Texas rivalry with nine wins in their last ten matchups, the Spurs' recent offensive explosion and the Mavs' defensive struggles could make this one interesting.

The injury bug's bitten Dallas hard, with seven players including Kyrie Irving questionable for this one, which might just open the door for San Antonio to buck the recent trend in this matchup.

Keep an eye on the battle of the boards - San Antonio's averaging over 10 offensive rebounds per game, which could spell trouble for a Mavericks team that's already on their heels.
