Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving has played in two straight games, but he has not looked himself. He struggled to find his jumper and admitted that he is still dealing with a foot injury, but the eight-time All-Star is out there because every game matters if the Mavs are going to make the playoffs.

Dallas is on the second night of a back-to-back set on Monday evening as they travel to Indiana to face the Pacers. The Mavericks lost to the Hornets in Charlotte on Sunday afternoon, and things went from bad to worse as Luka Doncic picked up his 16th technical foul and an automatic one-game suspension. Luckily, the NBA rescinded the technical on Monday afternoon, so Doncic can play on March 27. Indiana has lost four of their last five, but Dallas has dropped four straight. Who gets the win on Monday night?
