The Mavericks are dealing with a plethora of injury concerns heading into Tuesday night's game against the Lakers.

Looking to halt their longest losing streak in four seasons, the reeling Dallas Mavericks host the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday in the second night of a back-to-back set.

Dallas looks to stop its five-game losing streak when the Dallas Mavericks play Los Angeles. Tuesday's matchup is the first of the season for the teams.

JJ Redick has made it clear: he doesn’t just want the Lakers to be a good team; he wants them to be a great team. And not only does he want them to be great, but he believes they can be. But what does it look like for Redick to hold his team to a standard of looking to become great rather than simply trying to be good?

The Los Angeles Lakers return to action on Tuesday, finishing off their Texas road trip with a game against the Dallas Mavericks. Los Angeles is dealing with multiple injuries before the NBA All-Star break as Lakers like Anthony Davis and LeBron James have often been listed on the team’s injury report to help manage these players’ workloads and prevent further injuries.
