Mavs Step Back Ep. 58: Luka vs. Zion, and Porzingis Playing MVP-Level Basketball

This week, we recap Luka Doncic's first duel with Zion Williamson and Kristaps Porzingis playing out of his mind over the last month. Also, what's the 'playoff ceiling' for this Mavs team?

Welcome to Episode 58 of the ‘Mavs Step Back Podcast'. Dalton Trigg and Matt Galatzan are your hosts, and you can read all of their work here at MavsSI.com, as well as follow along with their Mavs conversations on Twitter: @dalton_trigg and @MattGalatzan.

On this episode, Dalton and Matt recap the Dallas Mavericks' thrilling 127-123 overtime win over the New Orleans Pelicans, which was the first of many duels between young superstars Luka Doncic and Zion Williamson. The guys talk about the great defensive jobs Maxi Kleber and Kristaps Porzingis did on Williamson, as well as the MVP-level Porzingis has been playing over the last month. 

From there, the conversation shifts to what the ceiling of this team could be heading into the playoffs, while also taking a quick glance at the current Western Conference standings with only 18 games remaining. Thanks for listening!
