The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves on the road Wednesday evening, 104-99. Luka Doncic led Dallas with 25 points, nine rebounds, and 10 assists to go along with three steals. Anthony Edwards was the high point man for the Wolves with 23.
With so many key injuries plaguing the Mavericks, Dallas opted for an offense-heavy starting group. They responded with three and-one’s in the opening half of the quarter. Unfortunately, the Mavericks had difficulty slowing the Timberwolves. Dallas did, however, goad backup center and super sub Naz Reid into three first quarter fouls.
