Mavericks vs. Kings Preview: Dallas hosts Sacramento seeking to extend win streak

The Dallas Mavericks (4-2) host the winless Sacramento Kings (0-6) on Monday night at American Airlines Center, looking to push their winning streak to four games. Head coach Dusty May's squad enters the contest following consecutive victories over Oklahoma City and Houston. Meanwhile, Sacramento continues to struggle under head coach Doug Christie, having allowed at least 121 points in every game during their 0-6 start to the season.

Dallas could manage player minutes cautiously, with Kyrie Irving listed as questionable for injury management after scoring 35 points against Houston, while Santi Aldama is listed as doubtful with a right knee issue. The Mavericks must also prepare to contain Kings rookie Darius Acuff, who enters Monday's matchup averaging 26.3 points and attempting 24 field goals per game.
