The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 121-114 Wednesday night as they start off a long five game home stand. Dwight Powell led all Mavericks with 24 points while both Andrew Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns each scored 26 for Minnesota in defeat.
The Mavericks took it to the Wolves early in the first quarter, as Luka Doncic repeatedly found Dwight Powell for looks both inside and out. After a Minnesota timeout, the Wolves settled some and began to chip away at the Dallas lead. Meanwhile, the Mavericks kept trying to deep threes but only found the bottom of the net twice in ten attempts during the frame.
