The upcoming game between the Lakers and Mavericks garners attention for Luka Dončić's return to face his former team, but the notable homecoming is that of Max Christie, who has shined since his breakout season with the Lakers. Christie expressed his excitement about seeing familiar faces, emphasizing camaraderie over competition. He aims to approach the game without hostility, focusing instead on the challenge posed by the Lakers, who are playoff contenders. This matchup presents a significant test for Christie and the Mavericks as a whole.
"I'm actually looking forward to it from a sense that I get to see old teammates, old colleagues, old coaches. I'm looking forward to just enjoying that game."
"I want to win, obviously. The Lakers are a playoff team. They're really, really good. It's a good test for us as a matchup, as a team as well."
"I'm not going in there with any bad blood or any intention of trying to drop 40 on them. I'm just going in there to try to win the game, play my game and let the game come to me."
