The Oklahoma City Thunder couldn’t slow down the Dallas Mavericks in a 127-106 loss Monday night at Chesapeake Energy Arena.
The Mavs (24-21) cruised, shooting 53% with 30 assists on 51 makes and just eight turnovers. The Thunder, who played short-handed, explored its roster but scored just 43 points in the second half and never delivered an answer for Dallas stars Luka Doncic or Kristaps Porzingis.
Doncic scored a game-high 25 points (9-for-17) with seven assists, while Porzingis scored 20 (9-for-15) with nine rebounds and five helpers. Tim Hardaway Jr. added 19 points (6-for-10) off the bench.
