Johnathan Motley had the most productive game of his career tonight, compiling his first ever double-double by scoring 26 points and pulling down 12 rebounds, including hitting a game-tying 3-pointer with 10.1 seconds left. He set a new career-high for scoring and rebounds for the second game in a row and put together one of the most robust stat lines we’ve seen in a long time. The only other Mavs to meet Motley’s stat lines tonight since 2004 are Dirk Nowitzki, Shawn Marion, and Josh Howard.
Motley faced no easy task tonight, having to bang on the block with the super-sized Andre Drummond for most of the game.
