It is Game 6 for Clippers and Mavericks in Playoffs, which has become an interesting turn of events for the two sides. After a 154-111 in Game 5, Mavericks will be finding their way to victory. On the other hand, Clippers hold the opportunity of closing the series to ascertain a spot in the Conference semifinals.

After Dallas star, Luka Doncic knocked down the Game 4 buzzer-beater to even the series, uncertainty has unfolded for the team. Their key man, Kristaps Porzingis is not playing the rest of the series with a tear in his right knee. That leaves the young lineup with Luka leading from the front.

Marcus Morris Sr. supposedly stepped on Doncic’s ankle in the last match but that blame got denied by Morris. Luka’s presence in Game 6 was questionable before, but now he is officially going to be there on this crucial day.
