DALLAS, Texas — The Dallas Mavericks shot a season-low 6 of 44 from 3-point range Wednesday night losing to the New York Knicks, 107-77.
Mavericks Head Coach Jason Kidd said, “I think just our energy; we didn’t have fight there to start. But shooting wasn’t very good. We talked about it before the game. We have some guys shooting the ball extremely well – you can’t have them all go cold at once and everybody did go cold. It happens. That’s why you play 82 games.”
Luka Doncic led the Mavericks with 31 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists, his 79th career 30-point game, leaving him one shy of Rolando Blackman (80) for third place on the franchise’s all-time 30-point games leaderboard. “Next game. We won five in a row and we had one bad game, that’s it. So we move on,” Doncic said following the blowout loss.
Dallas product Julius Randle led the Knicks with 26 points, 8 rebounds and 5 assists.
