Preview: Mavs end short road trip at Miami
MIAMI — Before the season started, making the playoffs was one of the primary goals the Dallas Mavericks established for
themselves.
That mission has been accomplished.
The Mavs clinched a Western Conference playoff spot with Tuesday’s 130-104 win over the Charlotte Hornets coupled with the Phoenix Suns’ 105-92 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. In the process, the Mavs have won 15 of their last 17 games and will carry a 49-30 record into Wednesday night’s road game against the Miami Heat.
The victory over the Hornets was meaningful for several reasons. For one, point guard Luka Don\u010di\u0107 passed Mark Aguirre and became the Mavs’ single-season scoring champion.
