Meanwhile, the Blazers enter this game with a 20-22 record. Doncic is still the leading scorer in the NBA, averaging 33.8 points per game. The Mavericks enter this game with a 24-20 record. The Blazers also struggled from the charity stripe, making only 57.9 percent of their free throws. Damian Lillard returned and led the way with 36 points and 10 assists.
