Seeking to snap a five-game not-winning streak, the Spurs’ wild comeback came up short as they fell to the Mavericks, losing their sixth straight 117-110. Luka Doncic had a triple double (42 points, 11 rebounds, 12 assists) and Dorian Finney-Smith paced the Mavericks with 22 points.
The good guys were down huge early on but battled back behind the gritty theatrics of DeMar DeRozan, who led the Spurs with 36 points while LaMarcus Aldridge had 16.
Observations
- The Mavericks’ duo of Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis look good individually; their chemistry when both are on the court together seems to be a work in progress but coming along.
