The Dallas Mavericks fell in overtime to the Detroit Pistons Thursday night in Detroit, losing 131-125. The Mavericks had a hot night from the floor, shooting over 50 percent on field goals and 41 percent from three. Luka Doncic led the way with 35 points and Christian Wood looked good against his former team after a down game at home against the Warriors.
For Detroit, Bojan Bogdanovic poured in 30, and Killian Hayes contributed a season-high 22, including back-to-back dagger threes in OT that put the game out of reach.
What started by looking like a fun shootout where both teams disregard defense to run up the score, quickly morphed into Dallas getting pushed around by the worst team in the NBA.
