Having won two straight entering Wednesday night’s game in Dallas, the Mavericks hosted a 7-6 Utah team that had beaten this same Mavs team a week prior (and twice already on the season). Things went a little differently this time around, though.
50 points! That was the margin of victory for Dallas, against a perhaps under-performing but still very talented team.
BENCH HUGE AS DALLAS DELIVERS SHOCKING WIN
The bench unit has tended to either be very good or absolutely terrible, and following up a strong performance against Oklahoma City, the second unit was great again Wednesday against Utah, scoring over 60 points and featuring three players in double-figures and another who nearly got there in garbage time in Jalen Brunson.
