In their last game against the Washington Wizards, the Pacers lost by 13 points (118-131). Jay Huff led Indiana with 22 points and tied a career best with five 3-pointers, while Quenton Jackson added 21 points and Jarace Walker posted 12 points and 12 rebounds.
The Pacers finished 2-4 on a six-game road trip. Pascal Siakam missed a second consecutive game to manage a nagging left hamstring injury. Indiana has dropped two in a row and continues to struggle as the worst team in the Eastern Conference.
The Pacers enter this matchup with home-court advantage and a 3-2 edge in their last five head-to-head meetings with Dallas. Though their season record does not inspire confidence, playing at Gainbridge Fieldhouse gives them an emotional lift and familiarity. Their offense relies heavily on Pascal Siakam's versatility, but with him sidelined, the burden shifts to secondary contributors.
Indiana's defense has been among the league's weakest, allowing points at a high clip, but in a matchup against a depleted Dallas squad on a 10-game skid, the Pacers have a genuine opportunity. If they control the paint and create ball movement, they can capitalize on Dallas's disarray.
The Indiana Pacers on average score 110.7 points per game, shoot 44.5% from the field and are ranked 30th in the league in FG%, and 34.4% from the arc and are ranked 30th in the league. The Pacers grab 43.1 rebounds per game and are ranked 24th in the season.
The Mavericks lost their last game against the Minnesota Timberwolves 111-122, extending their losing streak to 10 games — the longest in 28 years. Khris Middleton led Dallas with 18 points and Marvin Bagley III contributed 15 points and 13 rebounds. Dallas played without star rookie Cooper Flagg (sprained foot) for the second straight game. The Mavericks last won on January 22 against the Golden State Warriors.
The Mavericks come into this contest carrying significant momentum concerns, sitting at 19-36 and on a historic losing streak. While they have a 2-3 record against the Pacers in the last five meetings, they face this road game severely undermanned. Without Cooper Flagg and other key contributors, the offensive ceiling drops considerably, and their defense has been inconsistent all season.
On the road against a team playing at home, Dallas must find energy and execution from a short-handed roster. If Tyus Jones can create in the pick-and-roll and role players like Naji Marshall and P.J. Washington step up, they can keep it competitive — but consistency will be the deciding factor.
The Dallas Mavericks on average score 113.9 points per game, shoot 47.1% from the field and are ranked 13th in the league, and 34.2% from the arc and are ranked 25th in the league. The Mavericks grab 44.7 rebounds per game and are ranked 10th in the season.

The Indiana Pacers will host the Dallas Mavericks at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in what promises to be a matchup of two struggling franchises battling for pride. Indiana enters with a slight psychological edge given their home court and a 3-2 record in the last five meetings with Dallas. The Mavericks, mired in a 10-game losing skid and missing key players, must find a way to stop the rot and rediscover their winning formula.
Current Standings:
The Dallas Mavericks are 19-36 this season. They are 4th in the Southwest Division and 12th in the Western Conference.
The Indiana Pacers are 15-42 this season. They are 5th in the Central Division and 15th in the Eastern Conference.
| Player Name | Points | Rebounds | Assists | Steals/Blocks |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PJ Washington | 14.1 | 7.1 | 1.9 | 1/1.3 |
| Jay Huff | 9 | 3.8 | 1.3 | 0.5/1.9 |
The Indiana Pacers enter this contest with a home-court edge and better recent form against the Mavericks. Dallas's 10-game losing streak, multiple key injuries, and road travel put them at a significant disadvantage. If the Pacers play to their strengths — working the paint, pushing pace, and capitalizing on turnovers — they should be able to snap their own two-game skid and extend the Mavericks' nightmare run.
