Maxi Kleber sprang to life in Game 2 of the Dallas Mavericks’ first round series with the Utah Jazz. Kleber had been mired in an extended shooting drought but looked as sharp as ever Monday night.
He poured in 25 points–all three-pointers–in 31 minutes of action off the bench. Kleber made Utah’s defense pay for leaving him open and helped Dallas win the game, 110-104, and even the series at one game apiece as the series shifts to Salt Lake City.
“Every time I was open, I just shot the ball,” Kleber said.
