Sacramento Kings vs Dallas Mavericks Starting Lineups and Depth Charts for Mar. 3 | 2024-25 NBA Season

The Sacramento Kings will face their conference rivals, the Dallas Mavericks, in a crucial regular season matchup on Monday. Both teams are currently vying for position in the play-in race, with the Kings holding a slight advantage, leading the Mavericks by half a game. However, a loss could drop Sacramento below Dallas in the Western Conference standings.

The Kings are riding a three-game win streak and have been playing solid basketball. With a 31-28 record, DeMar DeRozan and his teammates are in ninth place, having won six of their last 10 games. They'll look to extend their win streak to four games with a victory over a shorthanded Mavericks team.

On the other hand, Dallas sits in 10th place with a 32-29 record. The team’s injury struggles continue, with P.J. Washington becoming the latest player to join Anthony Davis and others on the sidelines.
