Nikola Jokic was excellent for the Nuggets last season
The 3-0 Denver Nuggets will face a tough task as they welcome the Dallas Mavericks in their next NBA regular season game.
The Nuggets saw off a spirited Sacramento side in their last game with all of their stars chipping in with points.
Jamal Murray racked up 18 points while Gary Harris had 17 for the Nuggets.
The Mavericks lost their first game of the season against the Portland Trail Blazers in a high scoring game.
Kristaps Porzingis got 30 points and nine rebounds while Luka Doncic got 29 points and 12 boards in the losing cause.
The pair were supported by Seth Curry and Tim Hardaway Jr from the bench but lost the game by just two points.
The Nuggets have been in fine form since the start of the season but the Mavericks are a real test for the Denver side.
Porzingis and Doncic were excellent in the loss against the Blazers and the Nuggets have to be wary of the pair.
Dream 11 requires a team to feature players from both sides, and the right balance can lead to a great points haul.
There really isn’t much to think about when selecting the point guards.
Murray and Doncic were excellent for their respective sides in the previous games, and the pair should be chosen for this clash.
There are three shooting guards selected for this game as the credits need to be balanced out.
Seth Curry gets in from the Mavericks and the brother of Steph Curry can get some important points off the bench.
Harris and Malik Beasley are the other players selected for this position, and the pair could score some important points for the Nuggets.
Will Barton also recorded a double-double in the previous game for the Nuggets, and he is the only small forward for this clash.
Maxi Kleber racked up some important points for the Mavericks in the loss to Portland, and the Dallas star could do well on the boards against the Nuggets too.
Porzingis had a monster night for the Mavericks in the previous game. His 32 points almost saw the Dallas team beat the Blazers and he could record a similar score against the Nuggets.
The former Knicks star has started his career well with the Mavericks but needs to keep putting up the numbers.
Porzingis could have been the star for this clash but Doncic was close to getting a triple-double against the Blazers and should be the one selected.
This is a tough one to call given the array of talent on both sides. While Dallas can expect Porzingis and Doncic to score a lot of point Denver might have enough in the tank to get one over the Mavericks.
