Dallas Mavericks (27-25) will take on Houston Rockets (32-19) in a highly anticipated clash on Saturday as the fans wait for the debut of Anthony Davis, who made a trade move from the Los Angeles Lakers.

The new-look Mavericks are high on confidence after a much-needed win over the NBA champions, Boston Celtics on Thursday. With this win, they snapped a three-game losing streak. Mavericks are 4-6 in their last ten and have fallen to eighth in the West.

On the flip note, Houston Rockets are on a five-game losing streak and have slipped to fourth place in the Western Conference. Teams like Brooklyn Nets have defeated Rockets twice in one week.
