The Dallas Mavericks have had a dream start to their regular season campaign with two wins. The team will look to carry the momentum forward, especially after Luka Doncic’s one-handed three pointer for a win. On the other hand, the Memphis Grizzlies have had the worst possible start, losing both their games. Moreover, the team has multiple injuries looming over their heads. Let’s find out the injury reports for tonight’s game. Importantly, will Doncic and Kyrie Irving play?

With the new regulations in sight, the team can rest only one All-Star player per game and a player should play a minimum of 65 games to qualify for awards and recognition. The head coach and support staffs have a task in their hand to rotate their players accordingly to keep the engine running. Meanwhile fans are wondering whether their favorite stars will lace up for the night.

Fans witnessed one of the best finishes so far in this season, and Luka Doncic takes all the credit. With 3 seconds left in the shot clock and 40 seconds in the game clock, the Mavs were in the dire need of taking the lead.

Doncic, maneuvering against two defenders, dropped a three with one hand and eventually beat the Brooklyn Nets, scoring 49 points.

Furthermore, the Slovenian baller seemed to be celebrating his game-winner shot as he was spotted spectating Game 2 of the World Series. He sat alongside the Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki

It’s a given that fans expect the man in red hot form to play the next game and he will play the game, as per Star Telegram. Moreover, there isn’t clarity on Kyrie Irving, but Uncle Drew is also expected to play.
