The Dallas Mavericks went to Salt Lake City desperately searching for a win, having lost their last three games, all in clutch situations. To pick up a win against the Utah Jazz, they'd have to do it without Kyrie Irving, who was a late scratch with a shoulder sprain.

The Dallas Mavericks and Utah Jazz will go head-to-head on Thursday night, but the Mavs received a concerning update before the game. Luka Doncic (right knee contusion) and PJ Washington (right knee sprain) were already among the Mavericks on the NBA injury report.
