Tough-guy Dončić, fourth-quarter mastery highlight comeback win

It’s been a long, long time since the Mavericks were thought of as tough guys.

Like, maybe, never.

But with more than a dash of humor, Jason Kidd was quick to stick up for his team in the physicality department after Monday’s 112-104 victory over Washington.

Luka Donu010diu0107 emerged with a few stitches in his chin, courtesy of a wayward elbow on Corey Kispert’s drive to the bucket. This after he broke his nose a couple games ago.

That on top of the broken schnoz belonging to Maxi Kleber and Dereck Lively II.
