The Nets come into this game following a 102-101 loss at the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday in which Brooklyn nearly pulled off an upset win over a Lakers team missing Anthony Davis. Nets guard D'Angelo Russell had 19 points and eight assists in his first game against his former Los Angeles team and he had a chance to win the game at the final buzzer to give himself the kind of revenge game that players dream of.

Even without important pieces like Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Luka Doncic, Chet Holmgren, Isaiah Hartenstein and Dereck Lively II, both teams' role players simmered the beef between the ball clubs. The usually well-mannered Thunder were hit with multiple technical fouls. PJ Washington continued to poke the bear.

That decision forced the Thunder to stick close to the Mavericks' role players throughout the first quarter. Once Washington scored the first five points, Irving asserted himself and drained a 3-pointer before finishing at the basket with a finger roll to give the Mavericks an early 10-0 lead.

Kyrie Irving highlighted how one of his current Dallas Mavericks teammates can help the team reach new heights.
