The recent clash between the Dallas Mavericks and the Phoenix Suns was an exhilarating display of skill, strategy, and determination. With a final score of 114-128 in favor of the Suns, both teams showcased their prowess on the court. From the tip-off, it was evident that this game would be a battle to remember. The Mavericks, led by their star player Luka Dončić, showed great offensive prowess with his exceptional ball handling and scoring ability. Dončić's efforts were commendable as he managed to score 35 points during the game. However, despite his remarkable performance, it wasn't enough to secure victory for his team.
Luka Doncic scored 50 points to eclipse 10,000 for his career and had 15 assists, lifting the Dallas Mavericks to a 128-114 win over the Phoenix Suns on Monday night.
“He’s one of the best in the world,” Mavericks coach Jason Kidd said. “As I’ve always said, we can’t take him for granted. When he’s feeling it, you’re just trying to get him the ball as much as possible.”
They sure did against the Suns and Doncic made them pay for it.
The NBA's Christmas quintuple-header ended with the Dallas Mavericks beating down the Phoenix Suns, taking a short break, then beating them down again.
Denver Nuggets topped the Golden State Warriors, the Boston Celtics steamrolled the Los Angeles Lakers and the Miami Heat held off the Philadelphia 76ers.
There wasn't a classic game like some previous Christmases, but the Celtics still managed to make a statement as the top team in the NBA. And it's always fun to watch Doncic have one of those games where he drops haymaker after haymaker.
Booker finished with 20 points and Durant added 16 points and six turnovers.
Phoenix was outscored 37-22 and committed six turnovers in the fourth quarter of the loss, falling to 14-15 on the season.
The Suns visit the Rockets on Wednesday. Next time Phoenix gets a crack at Dallas will be Jan. 24 on the road.
