Thanks to another exceptional performance by Luka Doncic and good defensive work by national basketball player Maxi Kleber, the Dallas Mavericks have won two games in a row for the first time this NBA season.
Thanks to another exceptional performance by Luka Doncic and good defensive work by national basketball player Maxi Kleber, the Dallas Mavericks have won two games in a row for the first time this NBA season.
The Mavs went 103-100 against the Utah Jazz on Wednesday night – Kleber defended the Jazz’s last miss and Doncic scored 33 points. The 23-year-old Slovenian now had at least 30 points in each of the first seven games of the season – only two other players in NBA history had managed that before him. The last of these was the great Wilt Chamberlain in the 1962/1963 season.
The Milwaukee Bucks remain the top team in the NBA. The 116-109 win over the Detroit Pistons was the seventh win in seven games, and no other team in the world’s top basketball league is still undefeated. Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 32 points.
Two days after their first win of the season, the Los Angeles Lakers gave up a 16-point lead in the loss to the New Orleans Pelicans, but saved themselves with a three-pointer in overtime and still won 120:117. The best pitcher of the game was not one of the Stars, but Lonnie Walker IV with 28 points.
