OKLAHOMA CITY – With qualifying for the playoffs out of the picture and point guard Luka Doncic back in North Texas nursing a right thigh contusion, the Dallas Mavericks went out and simply swung for the fences Sunday afternoon against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The results were absolutely stunning as the Mavs overcame a triple-double by Russell Westbrook and shocked the Oklahoma City Thunder, winning 106-103 before a Chesapeake Energy Arena sellout crowd of 18,203. The Mavs (30-46) have now won two of their last four games – both wins were on the road – and are now 8-31 overall on the road.
