About the Mavericks: Wednesday night’s game against the Nuggets is the finale of a three-game road trip for Dallas. The trip started with Saturday’s 120-100 loss in Los Angeles to the Clippers. … After Wednesday, the Mavericks return home for one game — Friday against Denver — before hitting the road again and playing in Memphis on Monday afternoon. … Dallas is 9-17 in its last 26 regular-season games against the Nuggets and 30-48 all-time in Denver, including losses in its past three trips to Colorado. … After playing the Nuggets twice in three days, the Mavericks only play them one more time this season — April 10 in Denver.
About the Nuggets: Denver comes in riding a four-game winning streak after victories over Memphis, Minnesota, Orlando and Sacramento. … The Nuggets should be rested because they haven’t played since beating Sacramento on Friday behind 22 points apiece from Ty Lawson and Arron Afflalo.
