Even in a year where the team is surpassing most any reasonable expectation placed upon them, you still can’t quite take any win for granted with this Mavs team — especially at home. However, in this bout against the KAT-less Timberwolves, the Mavericks jumped out ahead early and kept the Wolves safely in the rear-view for the remainder of the game.
Dallas got a glut of scoring from starters and bench players alike. Luka led with a respectable line of 20/9/7, bolstered by solid scoring games from Tim Hardaway Jr’s 23 and double digit scoring off the bench from Kleber, Barea, and Wright.
