What happened in San Antonio on Tuesday for the Mavericks was nothing less than a great bonding moment.
Not during the game, although that was a morale-boosting 113-107 win.
What showed more about the Mavericks is what happened after the game in the locker room behind closed doors after Luka Donu010diu0107 had scored a very human-like 18 points and made just 6-of-27 field-goal attempts.
Coach Jason Kidd peeled back the curtain a little to clue everybody in on it before Thursday’s game against Utah at American Airlines Center.
“One of the biggest things after the game is he thanked his teammates in the locker room for picking him up,” Kidd said.
