Dallas Mavericks vs. Sacramento Kings Watch FREE Live Streaming Online NBA Basketball from Sleep Train Arena at 6:00 PM ET
The Mavericks try to extend their road winning streak to five for the first time in three seasons Sunday when they meet the lowly Kings.
After alternating wins and losses during a franchise-record eight-game homestand, Dallas (46-31) has opened a crucial four-game trek with back-to-back victories. One night after handing the Clippers just their sixth home loss by beating the Pacific Division champions 113-107, the Mavericks beat the Lakers 107-95 on Friday.
"You know, I said last night that a win against the Clippers doesn't mean anything if we lose today, and I thought that's how we came out," Dirk Nowitzki told the team's official website. "We got the early lead. And when we establish ourselves early and come ready to play, I always like our chances at home or on the road."
Nowitzki is averaging 28.7 points and 10.3 boards in three games this month while shooting 64.2 percent, including 11 of 17 from 3-point range.
He's led Dallas to seventh place in the West, one-half game ahead of Memphis and Phoenix.
The Mavericks have one of the league's top road records since Dec. 23 at 17-8, including a trio of four-game win streaks. The current one has been by an average of 12.0 points and includes a victory over Oklahoma City.
They haven't posted five consecutive victories away from home since 2010-11, when it went on to win the NBA championship.
While the Mavs are 25-4 against Sacramento since April 2006, the Kings have hung tough this season. Sacramento pulled out a 112-97 home victory Dec. 9 before narrowly losing the last two meetings in Dallas, 107-103 on Jan. 31 and 103-100 last Saturday.
Sacramento (27-49) followed with back-to-back wins over New Orleans and the Lakers before getting blown out 102-69 at Golden State on Friday. The Kings, outscored 59-27 over the first two quarters, posted season lows in points and field-goal percentage (32.1).
