The Dallas Mavericks are on course for the playoffs in the North American professional basketball league NBA.
The Mavericks won 108:106 (52:54) against the Golden State Warriors without their ailing star player Luka Doncic and the German national player Maxi Kleber. PJ Washington scored 32 points, including the two decisive points a few seconds before the end.
The Warriors, who are currently in tenth place in the Western Conference, had previously won six games in a row. Since pursuers Houston Rockets lost 104:119 to the Miami Heat, Stephen Curry’s team only needs one more win to at least reach the play-in tournament. Thanks to the Rockets defeat, the Los Angeles Lakers and Sacramento Kings certainly have that.
Theis and LA Clipper are also on track
The Los Angeles Clippers with German world champion Daniel Theis, like the Mavericks, are currently on course for the playoffs. In the clear 131:102 win against the Utah Jazz, eight players scored in double figures, including Theis, who scored eleven points and grabbed five rebounds.
In the Eastern Conference, the playoff field is narrowing behind league leader Boston Celtics. The Orlando Magic with the Wagner brothers lost, as did the New York Knicks with Isaiah Hartenstein. Orlando surprisingly lost to the Charlotte Hornets 115:124, Franz Wagner scored 22 points and grabbed seven rebounds, Moritz Wagner had eight points and four rebounds in just over ten minutes of playing time. The Knicks lost 100:108 to the Chicago Bulls, Hartenstein recorded ten points and seven rebounds as well as three turnovers, but also four turnovers.
