A wildly up-and down game ended with San Antonio on the wrong side of the scoreboard Thursday night as the Southwest Division rival Dallas Mavericks edged the Spurs out in the fourth quarter for a 104-99 win.
Dejounte Murray nearly earned a second-straight triple-double, scoring a season-high 23 points to go along with 10 rebounds and eight assists. Jakob Poeltl added another double-double with 14-points and 13-rebounds. Luka Doncic had a team-high 25 points for Dallas, followed by Jalen Brunson with 19 off the bench.
Observations
- The Mavericks announced a few hours before the game that Kristaps Porzingis would sit out Thursday night with lower back tightness.
