KEY GAME INFORMATION
DALLAS: Tell the world Deron Williams is coming home. The veteran point guard has lost a step (to put it kindly), but he'll be surrounded by a much better roster than he had in Brooklyn, opening things up a bit more . . . When healthy Wesley Matthews is one of the league's top 3-and-D wings. Dallas paid him despite his ruptured achilles, though he's likely going to be at least limited early in the year . . . If his toe is healthy again, Devin Harris should be able to effectively spell Williams and Matthews . . . J.J. Barea was solid in his return to Dallas last year and should head up the second unit . . . John Jenkins could never stay healthy in Atlanta, but he is an outstanding shooter and possible rotation piece when healthy . . . Raymond Felton plays in the NBA, therefore, so can you!Health is a question mark, but the Mavs will lean on Chandler Parsons as much as they can. He should take on more of a point forward role and be the focal point of the offense once he's fully reocovered from knee surgery in mid-November . . . Ideally, the Mavs would find plenty of rest for Dirk Nowitzki during the regular season. But they'll be battling for a playoff spot, and they'll need vintage Nowitzki . . . Rookie Justin Anderson might be the top wing off the bench. He's a defense first role player who looks NBA-ready . . . Charlie Villanueva could see a few additional minutes and chuck some threes . . . The Mavs are hoping to bring Dwight Powell along as a stretch 4; there are minutes available in the frontcourt . . . Jeremy Evans presumably gives them a candidate for the 2016 Slam Dunk competition. Zaza Pachulia was the consolation prize after the DeAndre Jordan debacle. He's not the physical presence that Jordan is, but he's an active 7-footer who is a starting-caliber performer on both ends of the floor . . . JaVale McGee is a reclamation project for the team. Once he returns from a leg injury in November, McGee could end up providing the type of presence that they wanted in Jordan if he stays healthy and able to learn Rick Carlisle's system.
PORTLAND: With LaMarcus Aldridge gone, Damian Lillard has free rein in Portland. He's going to get more shots, but he'll have to deal with a few more hands in his face . . . Gerald Henderson provides defensive alongside Lillard, but there will be times when Portland can't stomach his lack of an outside shot . . . Head coach Terry Stotts wants C.J. McCollum to work both guard spots. They might need his offense alongside Lillard to offset the loss of Aldridge . . . Allen Crabbe had a good summer and could break into the rotation as a deep specialist . . . Pat Connaughton could become a 3-and-D guy off the bench . . . Tim Frazier ia insurance in case McCollum doesn't work out as a back-up point guard . . . Al-Farouq Aminu has proven to be a versatile lockdown defender, something that will take the heat off Portland's guards. He's unlikely to develop into much of anything on the other side of the court, though . . . He's more of a stopgap solution, but Ed Davis gives them a serviceable veteran option at the 4 . . . They are not going to find another LaMarcus Aldridge any time soon, but Noah Vonleh has the upside to be a very good two-way player. His ability to step away from the basket is what this offense will need. He's a project after missing most of his rookie year in Charlotte, but Vonleh is the highest-upside big on the roster . . . Moe Harkless gives them another solid, defense-first wing to bring off the bench. He's a zero in the half-court offense and not much better defensively, but the Blazers seem intent on giving Mason Plumlee a shot due to his athleticism . . . With range stretching to the three-point line, Meyers Leonard should have a big role on a team searching for offense . . . Chris Kaman is Plan B at the 4 and the 5.
PREVIEW
Mavericks-Trail Blazers Preview
By JEFF BARTL STATS Senior Writer

Wesley Matthews played so well as an undrafted rookie in 2009-10 that the Portland Trail Blazers plucked the restricted free agent away from Utah with a sizable contract.

When it came time for Matthews to become a free agent again during the offseason, they didn't even bother to pick up the phone. Whatever the potential reasons - Matthews coming off a season-ending injury, LaMarcus Aldridge leaving town, C.J. McCollum ready for an expanded role - Matthews was upset.

The Dallas Mavericks, though, were willing to pay top dollar. Now Matthews prepares to make his first regular-season visit to Portland since leaving, but an illness might keep former teammate Damian Lillard from facing him Tuesday night.

Matthews signed a five-year, $34 million deal that Utah declined to match after a solid rookie season, then averaged 15.4 points in 359 regular-season games and made three playoff appearances with the Blazers.

He tore his left Achilles and missed the last 22 and all of a five-game playoff loss to Memphis last season before becoming an unrestricted free agent. Portland reportedly didn't extend an official offer to Matthews, who then signed a four-year, $70 million contract with the Mavericks.

Matthews said he hoped to return to Portland but "felt disrespected" when general manager Neil Olshey didn't even contact Matthews when free agency began. Olshey said later that the only way they would have pursued re-signing Matthews was if Aldridge returned rather than bolt for San Antonio.

That decision seems to be wise so far. Matthews has gotten off to a rough start with Dallas (10-8), averaging 11.1 points while shooting 34.7 percent in 16 games.

He's totaled 17 points while hitting just 3 of 15 from 3-point range over his last two and went 4 for 11 from the field in Monday's 112-98 loss to Sacramento.

This contest ends a stretch featuring five of six games on the road for the Mavericks, who have dropped four of the first five.

"We knew it was going to be a process," said Chandler Parsons, who had a team-high 14 points. "Every time you have this many guys that are new and haven't played together, it's going to take some time."

Portland (7-11) is in a bit of a rebuilding mode after losing Aldridge and Matthews and trading away another former mainstay in Nicolas Batum. It devoted its attention to building around Lillard, who inked a five-year, $120 million extension in July.

McCollum stepped into Matthews' starting role and has averaged 19.9 points, far better than the 6.8 he averaged in 2014-15. He scored 28 in Saturday's win over the Los Angeles Lakers to help the Blazers win for the third time in four games, but he was held to 4 of 15 from the field and a season-low 12 points in Monday's 102-87 loss to the Clippers.

Lillard had seven points in 17 minutes before leaving for good early in the third with an upset stomach.

"Obviously Damian's the center of our offense, gets everybody going," McCollum said. "Without him on the floor it's tough, but we had to adjust and make plays without him. Hopefully he'll be back soon. I could tell he was sick."

Lillard has never missed a game in three-plus seasons but is uncertain to play in this contest.

"If I'm good enough to play, I'll play," Lillard said. "I can't go out there the way I was (Monday)."

Dirk Nowitzki scored 16 points to help the Mavericks beat the Matthews-less Blazers 114-98 in the last meeting April 15.
