The Dallas Mavericks lost again Monday night and again to the Phoenix Suns, 109-108. Devin Booker was the hero of the fourth quarter for the Suns and poured in 24 in the contest, but stalwart Chris Paul cooked the Mavericks to the tune of 34 points, nine rebounds, and nine assists. Luka Doncic had 25 points and Josh Richardson scored 24 in defeat for Dallas.
The return of Maxi Kleber to the court and the starting line up marked the early minutes of the game for the Dallas Mavericks. Josh Richardson led the charge early, with a number of drives to the basket and Tim Hardaway broke the lid on the basket for three pointers for the team after an eight minute drought from deep to start the game.
