Luka Doncic and the Mavericks host Steph Curry and the Warriors.

Jamal Crawford and Quentin Richardson return for a new stream of NBA HooperVision on NBA League Pass. The duo will give their unique perspectives on Thursday’s game between the Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks (8:30 ET), taking fans inside the life of an NBA player by sharing stories from their careers and providing in-depth analysis on the matchup.

NBA HooperVision gives fans the authentic feel of watching a game with two NBA legends. Crawford and Richardson do everything from discussing the best sneakers around the league to breaking down detailed X’s and O’s during the live game. The stream usually includes a special guest, too.

Thursday’s matchup will feature two of the game’s biggest stars as Steph Curry squares off against Luka Doncic. These two teams recently met on February 27th when Luka’s 34 points helped the Mavericks erase a 21-point deficit in the 3rd quarter as Dallas stunned Golden State 111-107.

The Warriors (43-19) enter Thursday’s contest looking to end a two-game skid. Golden State most recently suffered a 129-114 loss on Tuesday night in Minnesota. Curry poured in 34 points and 5 rebounds, but no other Warriors player scored over 15. Klay Thompson has missed the last two games with an illness but made the trip to Dallas and is expected to be in the lineup. With reinforcements coming, Golden State will look to get back in the win column and remain a top 2-seed in the West.

The Mavericks (37-25) enter this matchup on a two-game win streak after beating the Warriors and Lakers on the road. Doncic has been leading the way averaging 33.2 ppg in Dallas’ last 10 outings, posting an 8-2 record during that stretch. Dallas has seen key contributions surrounding Doncic in guys like Jalen Brunson (16.1 ppg) and recently acquired Spencer Dinwiddie, who in five games with the Mavericks is averaging 14 points a contest. Dallas currently sits as the 5th-seed in the West, holding a one-game advantage over the Denver Nuggets.

It will be a great moment as two of the league’s brightest stars matchup, while two NBA legends are on the call. This NBA HooperVision stream featuring two well-rounded Western Conference playoff teams, with two MVP caliber point guards, should be no exception. Curry has averaged 23.4 ppg against the Mavericks in his career, while Doncic has averaged 28.5 ppg against Steve Kerr’s Warriors in his career. Jamal and Quentin will be delivering a good show to the viewers.

Richardson and Crawford were both selected in the 2000 Draft and combined to play in more than 2,100 NBA games.

Crawford, a guard who was picked No. 8 in the Draft by the Cleveland Cavaliers and traded to the Chicago Bulls, is tied with Lou Williams as the only players in NBA history to win the Kia Sixth Man of the Year Award in three different seasons. Crawford played for the Bulls, Knicks, Warriors, Atlanta Hawks, Portland Trail Blazers, LA Clippers, Minnesota Timberwolves, Phoenix Suns and Nets in his 20-year career.

At 39, and in his final regular-season game with Phoenix, Crawford dropped 51 points in a loss to the Dallas Mavericks. That performance made him the oldest NBA player to score 50+ points in a game, as well as the first player to score that many points off the bench in a single NBA game.

Richardson, a combo guard-forward who was picked No. 18 by the Clippers, played 13 seasons with stops in Phoenix, New York, Miami and Orlando after beginning his career in LA. He won the 2005 NBA 3-Point Contest and has gone on to a successful broadcast career, which includes co-hosting the popular “Knuckleheads” podcast.
