The Dallas Mavericks will take on the Miami Heat tonight at the American Airlines Center. Standing at the 8th in the Western Conference table, the Mavericks are enduring a severe inconsistent run this season. However, they will enter this contest at the back of a Warriors. Mavericks have won three of its last four games and it will be interesting to note whether they will be able to continue the momentum against the Heat, who is facing similar issues and stand at an identical spot in the Eastern table. The post-Luka Doncic era in the Mavericks has just begun and it is Anthony Davis, who has the onus of leading the Mavs to the glory days again. Davis made a scintillating debut for Dallas against the Rockets but picked up an injury in the match. Thus, as the Mavericks are in action tonight, it is imperative to take a peek at the team's injury report to figure out whether Anthony Davis will feature in the game or not.
