Nor is everything rosy at the Dallas Mavericks. Its market is pure growth with the addition of a world star. The first sensation supports any movement. But with Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving together on the track, the first victory still does not rise to the accountant. 0-2, after a chaotic final against the Minnesota Timberwolves in an important game within the West (121-124).
The Mavs had possession to tie the game, and disaster struck between the two world stars. Neither Irving nor Doncic manage to shoot because they They run into some terrific perimeter defense between Jaden McDaniels and Anthony Edwards.

More with a game that was once again consistent between the two players. Kyrie Irving went to 36 points and 6 assists, while Luka Doncic took off to 33 points, 12 assists and 6 rebounds. His shooting cards are just as tremendous, with 15/23 for the Australian-trained point guard and 10/20 for the Real Madrid youth academy player.
Doncic, along with Irving, scores 30 points in two nights. For his part, Kyrie reaches 32 on average. Never in history a debuting duo went to averages of 30 points in their first two games.

Kyrie is amazing. They all looked at him without knowing how he did it
The game against Minnesota should be an accident. “They were playing ‘catch and shoot’ with each other, and the next step is to figure out who’s going to shoot it. It took too long,” team coach Jason Kidd said. And despite the defeat Doncic praised his new partner. “It’s incredible. In the last quarter the entire bench was wondering how he could do all those things. Incredible”, he sentenced.
