The Dallas Mavericks went to Salt Lake City desperately searching for a win, having lost their last three games, all in clutch situations. To pick up a win against the Utah Jazz, they'd have to do it without Kyrie Irving, who was a late scratch with a shoulder sprain.

The Dallas Mavericks and Utah Jazz will go head-to-head on Thursday night, but the Mavs received a concerning update before the game. Luka Doncic (right knee contusion) and PJ Washington (right knee sprain) were already among the Mavericks on the NBA injury report.

For the game, they could be without one of their best players, as Kyrie Irving is on the injury report. The 2016 NBA Champion is averaging 25.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 4.9 assists and 1.5 steals per contest while shooting 54.
