The Dallas Mavericks (6-3) defeated the Brooklyn Nets (4-7), 96-94 at home on Monday evening. Dallas was led by, who else, Luka Doncic who added another 30+ point game to his streak, finishing with 36 points, six rebounds, and six assits. Kevin Durant helped the Nets build an early lead and hang around throughout the game by contributing 26 points of his own.
This was a difficult back and forth game. The Mavericks started off slow, once again, getting down early in the first quarter by double digits, only to rally back in the same period.
