The Golden State Warriors will travel to Dallas to take on the Dallas Mavericks at the American Airlines Center on Wednesday night.

The Warriors are second in a highly competitive Western Conference. They have a season record of 43 wins and 19 losses, and are seven games behind leaders Phoenix Suns.

They have an imperious home record this season, but on the road, the Warriors have won only 17 of their 29 games. They are on a two-game losing streak, and have won four of their last ten games.

Meanwhile, the Mavericks are fifth with a 37-25 season record as they look to close the gap on fourth-placed Utah Jazz, who are three games ahead. The Mavericks are coming into this game with momentum. They have won eight of their last ten games, and have won 20 of their 31 outings at home.
