The video was posted by the Mavs forward Maxi Kleber on his Instagram page. The caption said ’48 hours of self-isolation can‘t stop DJ Ice-o and DJ Q from turning up 🎧🎧!’.

There was music and the Mavs players could be seen having a good time from the balconies of their rooms.

Kleber was seen making the most of the two-day quarantine along with teammates Luka Doncic, Dwight Powell, etc. The Mavs followed the social distancing protocols and still were able to have a good time.

Such moments show the bond the Mavs team shares with each other.

Paul said, “To see them outside doing that, having a good time, the more we have those type of interactions and experiences I think the better we’ll make this.” Praising the Mavs positive attitude and trying to make the best of the Bubble situation.

Paul said that such a positive attitude should be adopted by each team to uplift the spirits and adapt to the unfamiliar situation of living and playing in a bubble.

Many teams and players have been criticizing the conditions and the facilities of the Bubble like the food, rooms, etc. Other teams could learn from the Mavs and try to make the most of this unusual situation.
