Luka Doncic heroics not nearly enough as Suns cruise to 2-0 series lead over Mavericks

For a second straight game, Luka Doncic was spectacular against the Phoenix Suns.

For a second straight game, it didn't matter.

The matchup problems that plagued the Dallas Mavericks in a 121-114 Game 1 loss were omnipresent in Game 2 as the Suns blew open a close game in the fourth quarter for a 129-109 win to take a 2-0 series lead.

Powered by a 20 points from Chris Paul and 21 from Devin Booker in the second half, the Suns turned an 11-0 fourth quarter run into a 23-2 streak that prompted both teams to empty their benches for the game's final four minutes.
