Tagbilaran City, Bohol – Luka Doncic assisted on made threes by Tim Hardaway Jr., Maxi Kleber, and Reggie Bullock in the overtime period that led to a nine-point cushion en route to a thrilling 129-125 victory of the Dallas Mavericks over the struggling Brooklyn Nets at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. It was Dallas’ first road victory this season, thus far.
Doncic finished with 41 points, 14 assists, 11 rebounds, and 3 steals. Four bench players scored in double figures for Dallas, led by Hardaway Jr.’s 18 markers.
Brooklyn’s one-two scoring punch in Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant once again had an explosive night. Both of them stuffed the stat sheet, as Irving finished with 39 points, 7 boards, 3 dimes, 3 steals, and 4 blocks. Durant added 37 markers, 3 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block for the Nets, who dropped to 1 win and 4 losses.
