Dallas Mavericks vs San Antonio Spurs Predicted Starting Lineups and Depth Chart for Mar. 12 | NBA 2024-25 Season

Dallas Mavericks vs San Antonio Spurs is one of countless matchups on a jam-packed NBA slate for Wednesday. It features a pair of teams who had their playoff aspirations crushed due to devastating injuries.

At the trade deadline, the Spurs looked ready to make a push for the postseason when they acquired De'Aaron Fox. However, things ended up taking a turn for the worse after the All-Star break. Upon returning to the team, it was revealed that Victor Wembanyama would miss the remainder of the season due to a blood clot.

All eyes were on the Mavs following the Luka Doncic trade, but the injury bug has derailed their season. First, Anthony Davis got hurt in his Dallas debut, then Kyrie Irving suffered an ACL tear that will have him sidelined for the foreseeable future.

Wednesday will be the fourth and final meeting between these Texas rivals. The Mavericks have a commanding lead in the season series and have a chance to pull off a sweep.
