Mavericks survive against upstart Spurs with Irving leading the way

SAN ANTONIO – A couple years from now, neither the Mavericks nor anybody else in the NBA will want any part of the San Antonio Spurs.

But for this season, it was fair game against the youthful Spurs, who are rebuilding around 7-4 superstar-in-waiting Victor Wembanyama.

Not that the Mavericks didn’t get everything they wanted and more from the Spurs on Tuesday night.

The Mavericks had a tough time shaking the Spurs virtually throughout, but finally made enough plays down the stretch to pull out a 113-107 victory at Frost Bank Center Tuesday night, completing a 4-0 season series sweep against San Antonio.
