The Dallas team defeated the Utah Jazz with a score of 122: 114 (30:38, 24:32, 34:30, 34:14), which is its direct competitor in the fight for sixth place in the Western Conference.
The Mavericks team is expected to play a match with the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday, so the unit’s leading forces Dončič and Porziņģis were given a rest so as not to aggravate the previous injuries. Dorian Finley-Smith, the Mavericks principal, did not take part in Monday’s match due to a hip injury.
Tim Harvard Junior was the winner with 27 points, Seth Curry scored 22 points, and Boban Marjanovich had 20 points.
“Jazz” also did not play in the optimal line-up, because Donovan Mitchel watched the match from the bench due to the injury of his left leg. Jordan Clarkson scored 18 points for the Salt Lake City team.
The Mavericks only made their first long shot at the end of the first quarter, but that didn’t stop them from leading the first twelve minutes of the match. In the continuation of the game, both “Jazz” moved away and gained a 22-point lead at the beginning of the second half.
The Dallas basketball players took the lead at the turn of the third and fourth quarters, with a 16-point break led by Harvard and Max Clawler. The result of the next attacks was similar, but after Treja Berk’s long shot, the Dalasians did not give up the reins in the middle of the fourth quarter.
Both teams have already secured a place in the playoffs. The Mavericks are in seventh place in the Western Conference with 43 wins in 73 matches, while the Jazz is in sixth place with 43 successes in 71 battles.
NBA teams take eight matches before the playoffs to determine the final place distribution before the playoffs begin.
