Rapid Recap: Suns fall short in Dallas, 123-113
Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY SportsThe Phoenix Suns dropped a tough one on the road in Dallas to a red-hot Mavericks team. The second half was all Dallas after the Suns took a three-point lead into the half.
The three-point shooting from Dallas along with the lack of perimeter defense from Phoenix was the ultimate difference in this one. It was a Luka Doncic masterclass, and the Suns missed Bradley Beal in this one.
That makes it 7 straight wins for Dallas and gives them the season series lead, which could play a factor in playoff seeding down the road.
