Poku isn’t in OKC’s planned rotation tonight.
Daigneault: “It’s been up and down for him. Right now the most important thing is that he’s working … I still think he’s a much better player right now than when he got here, but we’re gonna have to help him work through this.” – 8:10 PM

Jason Kidd talked before tonight’s game about some Mavs guards often asking him for advice or picking his brain about certain situations.
But not Luka, he joked.
“Picasso, you make sure the paints are there and the brushes are clean and let him go.” – 7:40 PM

Mark Daigneault says he takes the cues from the other coaches on if they want to talk or not he says he doesn’t feel like he is in a position to just say “hey Pop, come on over. I’m just coaching the Thunder.” “Head down” he described – 7:25 PM

Ice-cold night outside. Hopefully it’ll be a little warmer inside American Airlines Center as Mavs take on the Thunder. We’ll bring you the in-game nuggets. OKC without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Mavs without Kristaps Porzingis, Sterling Brown and Tim Hardaway Jr. – 6:38 PM
