Information reaching hitztv.com.ng has it that The Dallas Mavericks were playing Xbox in the desert in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
In the trending video, Dallas Mavericks players are seen sitting on the ground with a bedsheet spread on it while preparing to play some games on Xbox.
Dallas Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd has promised UAE basketball fans will get to witness his team’s star duo Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving on court together during next week’s NBA Abu Dhabi Games.
The NBA returns to the capital for a second straight season, as part of the organisation’s multi-year deal with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi), and will see the Mavericks take on the Minnesota Timberwolves on October 5 and 7 at Yas Island’s Etihad Arena.
Irving was traded from Brooklyn to Dallas in February and got to play just 16 games alongside Doncic last season as the Mavericks failed to make the play-offs – and the play-in tournament altogether – by finishing 11th in the Western Conference.
