3.) Bounce Back from Harrison Barnes

It’s no secret by now, but Harrison Barnes is proving to be one of the better, surprising stories in the league with his near all-star level of play. While leading the team in scoring, it’s no secret who will get the ball tonight in Orlando.

After scoring just 15 points on 5-17 shooting on Friday night, Dallas will need a bounce back game from Harrison Barnes to beat a young team in Orlando.

Likely looking at Serge Ibaka lined up next to him, Barnes will have to force the big man to move his feet and get to the rim as he looks to lead the Mavs to their third win of the season.

Harrison Barnes has scored 30 points three times this season…two of those games were the only two wins of the season for the Mavericks.
