The winless Dallas Mavericks head into Sunday’s matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks without their leader in Dirk Nowitzki, and possibly Deron Williams.

After losing to the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night, the Mavericks received news that Dirk Nowitzki will be out for at least a week due to soreness in his Achilles. With the season already starting out in a depressing manner, Dallas looks to fight through the early season struggles as they search for a winning formula.

With Nowitzki out and a plethora of veterans dealing with injuries (including a “very questionable” Deron Williams for Sunday”), Dallas will need their youngsters to take charge against an athletic Bucks team.

Prior to Sunday’s matchup against the Bucks, I chatted with Adam McGee from Behind The Bucks Pass, who covers the Bucks all year round.

Here is what he had to say in previewing the game.
