One of the Mavericks' most controversial moves of the last few seasons may not be the disaster it was once considered.
The Dallas Mavericks held on for a gritty 107–105 win over the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday night, handing last season’s NBA Finals runners-up their fourth straight loss to open the season. Brandon Williams unexpectedly led the way for Dallas with 20 points, while Mavs rookie sensation Cooper Flagg continued his impressive start to the season, logging his second career double-double in just five games.
