When Delon Wright smoked the Oklahoma City Thunder for 14 points, 12 rebounds and four assists Sunday night, coach Rick Carlisle said Wright is one of those players who is “proud to be a Maverick.”
Part of that pride is Wright’s ability to keep charging ahead, even when things don’t go particularly well. The recent road trip was a great example.
His showing against the Thunder proved it because it came about 48 hours after he had a rough finish to the loss in Utah. It was a terrific show of resiliency by Wright and all the Mavericks.
