The Charlotte Hornets overcame a 40-point outing from Luka Doncic to defeat Dallas 110-104, their second win over the Mavericks in three days and another costly blow to Dallas' playoff hopes.
110-104, their second win over the Mavericks in three days and another costly blow to Dallas' playoff hopes.
The Mavericks entered the day tied with Oklahoma City for the 10th best record in the Western Conference but were still outside of the play-in tournament bubble because the Thunder hold the head-to-head tiebreaker. Things didn't start well Sunday for the Mavericks in the rematch. Dallas fell behind 30-12 in the first quarter after missing 15 of its first 18 shots from the field. Doncic went 0 for 6 in the first quarter.
The Mavericks stormed back in the fourth quarter with Tim Hardaway Jr. and Irving draining back-to-back 3s before Doncic nailed a step-back 3 with 5:44 remaining to give Dallas its first lead of the game.
