Dallas Mavericks file protest over Hawks game: Will they win?
The Dallas Mavericks loss against the Atlanta Hawks on Feb. 23 set off owner Mark Cuban who officially fired a protest on Sunday. Will they win?
The Dallas Mavericks dropped the second of a back-to-back against the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday night. Both Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis sat out for Dallas. The Mavs got out to a big lead but faltered down the stretch resulting in a 111-107 loss.
The game ended on a bit of a wild play. Trae Young had his driving layup blocked by Dorian Finney-Smith. John Collins grabbed the ball and tipped it in with 8.4 seconds remaining to put the Hawks up by four. There was an inadvertent whistle after the block, though.
