Preview Roundups
December 22, 2019
Dallas at Toronto 3:30 PM ET
The Toronto Raptors and the Dallas Mavericks are each finding ways to win despite being without some of their best players. Stars like Pascal Siakam and Luka Doncic could still be missing when the Raptors host the Mavericks on Sunday, but both teams remain confident.
Charlotte at Boston 6:00 PM ET
The Boston Celtics try for their third straight victory when they host the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday. Boston defeated Detroit 114-93 on Friday and continues to get by without key contributors Marcus Smart, who has missed the last five games with an eye infection that is not getting any better, and Gordon Hayward - day-to-day with left foot soreness.
Indiana at Milwaukee 7:00 PM ET
The Milwaukee Bucks and Giannis Antetokounmpo have been virtually unstoppable with 26 wins in 30 games to start the season as they return home to entertain the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. Milwaukee improved to 9-0 in sets of back-to-back games with a 123-102 victory over New York on Saturday as Antetokounmpo, the reigning league MVP, recorded his third triple-double of the season.
L.A. Clippers at Oklahoma City 7:00 PM ET
The Oklahoma City Thunder look to continue their climb up the standings in the Western Conference as they go for a fourth straight victory Sunday night when the Los Angeles Clippers pay a visit. The Thunder started the season 5-10, but have won nine of 13 since and captured the first three contests on a five-game homestand while averaging just over 120 points after Friday’s 126-108 triumph against Phoenix.
Denver at L.A. Lakers 9:30 PM ET
The Los Angeles Lakers closed out a five-game road trip with their first set of back-to-back losses this season and are intent on not letting the slide continue. The Lakers will try to get back into the win column when they return home on Sunday and host the Denver Nuggets.
