DALLAS -- The Mavericks hope to give O.J. Mayo's barber a lot of work Thursday night.

The Mavs are finally a win away from shaving their .500 beards, which several players have been growing since they made a pact to put down the razors until their record reached the break-even point again.

Seven players -- Mayo, Dirk Nowitzki, Vince Carter, Chris Kaman, Elton Brand, Jae Crowder and Dahntay Jones -- were part of the pact.

Only Jones has shaved, and that happened a couple of weeks after he was traded to the Atlanta Hawks -- and his new teammates weren't too keen on him sporting a beard as a tribute to his former team.

The Mavs made the pact when they were seven games under .500. They're 35-36 after winning nine of their last 12 games, including Tuesday night's thrilling overtime victory over the Los Angeles Clippers.

Omar the barber is coming to Thursday night's home game against the Indiana Pacers.

"Man, everyone is going to have their clippers in their locker Thursday and hopefully you guys can watch us shave them off," said Mayo, who said he doesn't know his barber's last name. "The barber will be here. We're going to leave him tickets and give ourselves a chance to shave them off.
