Last season's performance by the Mavericks provides a glimpse into what can be expected from them. With an overall field goal percentage of 46 and free throw percentage of 77, they demonstrated efficiency on offense. Their true shooting percentage stood at 57 while their three-point and two-point percentages were 35 and 55 respectively, indicating a balanced attack from beyond the arc and inside it.


The team's average per game included about 108 points scored, backed by approximately 23 assists which show their ability to share the ball effectively. On defense, they managed nearly four blocks and seven steals per game – numbers that reflect their defensive prowess. However, with an average of almost 20 personal fouls per game last season, discipline might be an area for improvement.


Rebounding was another strong suit for Dallas with an average of around 43 rebounds per game; this aspect will be crucial against Oklahoma City Thunder who are known for their physicality under the rim. The fast-break points averaged close to four per game last season; thus quick transitions could be key in securing a win.


Turnovers were relatively low with an average of almost twelve per game suggesting that ball security is one of their strengths. As they face off against OKC Thunder at BOK Center, maintaining possession and capitalizing on scoring opportunities will be vital.


Fans can catch all the action on October 6th as these two teams battle it out on court. The match promises excitement and competitive spirit as both teams look to start off strong. For those looking forward to witnessing this encounter live or from home – keep your eyes peeled as these athletes showcase their talents in Tulsa!
