How Victor Oladipo not playing impacts the Dallas Mavericks in Orlando

Dallas Mavericks: Impact of Victor Oladipo not playing in NBA Disney

The Dallas Mavericks have already begun their preparations for the NBA’s restart. They are working out at their practice facility before departing for Orlando next week. One of the 22 teams will leave as NBA champions.

It will be the first of its kind event. Every organization will be in one place. After the eight seeding games per team, there is going to be a play-in for the final spot in each conference as long as the ninth-seeded team is within four games. Then, the traditional playoffs begin with the kicker that there will be no home-court advantage. Every game happens at Disney World.

The Mavericks will be ready. Luka Doncic is leading the team into the uncharted waters. The tightly packed schedule should favor the Mavs. The time off also allowed the team to get fully healthy. Kristaps Porzingis should be playing at his peak. Couple that with Luka being unstoppable, and the Mavericks will be a feared team in Orlando.
