Porzingis.
The game was tied at 103 points each when Marcus Morris buried a 3-pointer with 13.2 seconds remaining. That was the game for the Knick and the defeat for the Mavericks who now lost two consecutive games.

With so many super teams in the West, the games against the teams like Knicks are important for the Mavericks to win if they are to remain relevant in the playoff battle. But Dallas are set to play four games at home and should target a positive return from these matches.

Pascal Siakam: It’s almost impossible to replace a player of Kawhi Leonard’s capability but Pascal Siakam is doing wonders in North. He is averaging a career-best 27.2 points per game this season.
Luka Doncic: Talking about wonders, Mavericks have a superstar on their roster who is racking up insane numbers despite being a sophomore in NBA. He is averaging 28.7 points per game this season.

Dallas Mavericks vs Toronto Raptors Team News:
Dallas Mavericks:
Dallas Mavericks have a clean bill of health and will go into the home tilt against the Raptors with a fully-fit squad.
But the visitors are shorthanded these days and will be without a few first-term stars. Kyle Lowry remains sidelined with a finger injury and won’t be returning anytime soon. Serge Ibaka is also out for the Raptors as he recovers from an ankle injury. Patrick McCaw, meanwhile, remains a long-term injury absentee.
In addition, the Raptors could be in for a timely boost as OG Anunoby could make a comeback from injury in this match.
