Warriors vs. Mavericks Recap: 3 things from the Mavericks heartbreaking 127-125 loss to the Warriors

The Dallas Mavericks lost what was the must-win game of the season so far, a disappointing 127-125 loss to the Golden State Warriors Wednesday night in Dallas.

Luka Doncic led all scorers with 30 points in his first game back from a thigh injury. Jonathan Kuminga led a balanced Warriors effort with 22 points. This loss drops the Mavericks down the standings in the Western Conference, now 1.5 games behind the sixth-placed Warriors. A Mavericks win would have vaulted Dallas ahead of Golden State with nine Mavericks games left this season.

The desperation was definitely felt from the opening tip to the final whistle.
