On a night where two teams set an NBA record for most combined three-pointers made, the Portland Trail Blazers ended up on the losing end of their contest with the Dallas Mavericks, falling by a final score of 133-125. The Mavs scored 78 points in the first half alone, and all five starters finished in double-figures—led by 27 points from the recently-tabbed All-Star starter Luka Doncic.
Damian Lillard followed up his franchise-record 61-point performance on Monday with a game-high 47, but didn’t get enough help from Portland’s supporting cast as the Blazers dropped their third game out of their last four attempts.
