My friend and I are looking at flying into DFW for a Saturday night Mavs game.

We would be flying in Friday afternoon/evening and leaving Sunday morning.

I would appreciate any recommendations on areas to stay or avoid for hotels/airbnbs, and some activities to do saturday during the day and prior to the game. Also, any good areas for bar hopping for friday night and post game saturday would be helpful too.

Honestly, just any helpful tips for this type of trip to the DFW area would be helpful.
