The Dallas Mavericks had a successful Saturday night as they got a home victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Throughout the game they were looking good, keeping their double-digit lead for the majority of the second half.
The Thunder put up a good effort, but ultimately came up short. Paul George had a double-double, having 20 points and 13 rebounds in 38 minutes of action. However, he struggled to keep his consistency when Oklahoma City needed him the most, shooting 38 percent from the field.
Most of the credit for the Thunder’s late push to stay relevant was by Steven Adams, who also put up 20 points and 13 rebounds, but shot a better 72 percent from the field.
