It was a comfortable victory for the Dallas Mavericks Monday night, squashing the West-leading Phoenix Suns 130-111 in Dallas.
Luka Doncic led all scorers with 33 points, the Mavericks still can’t miss from three, and the defense is finally showing some life again.
Let’s just get to the fun part.
5: Number of Josh Green assists
Josh Green’s 16 points on 6-of-7 shooting were certainly nice, but his passing and five assists were what really stood out in the win Monday night.
Green was assertive and aggressive all night attacking closeouts and taking the ball to the basket — exactly what the Mavericks need more of around Luka Doncic.
