The Dallas Mavericks held off the Denver Nuggets, winning 116-115 Tuesday night on the road in Denver. It’s hard to imagine a more impressive road win for this Dallas team that’s managed just a 2-8 record away from home this season.
Luka Doncic had a “quiet” triple-double, his 52nd, with 22 points, 10 rebounds, and 12 assists, but it wasn’t always pretty. His five turnovers, especially his two in the fourth as Dallas struggled to score and gave up a 10-point lead late in the frame, were uncharacteristic. It was Tim Hardaway Jr who lead the way scoring for Dallas with 29 points, continuing his hot shooting streak with a 6-of-8 night from deep.
