A minute and a half before the end of the fourth quarter, the Bucks had a sure advantage of 7 points (119: 112), but the Mavericks, who are already used to playing in the NBA bubble, won the last minute stretch 7 : 0, and the team relationship was clarified in another extension.
From the first attacks, the outsiders in the duel fired, hit three triples in a row and sent the Bucks to a knockout.
Dorian Finney-Smith, who became a surprise factor, scored an important three-point goal late in the fourth quarter, as well as two overtures, after playing the game of his career: he scored 27 points (6/12 trit.) He bounced 11 balls and made 5 assists. The striker, who played the most for the team (43 minutes), didn’t even know if he could play because of a minor injury.
However, all the spotlight turned to Lukas Dončičius, who is not among the three nominees for NBA regular season MVP.
Slovenia scored 36 points, bounced 14 balls and had 19 assists for the first time in his career; critics of the NBA considered that this could be the best game in the career of L. Dončičius.
With 17 triple-doubles, Slovenia is unbeatable among all NBA basketball players this season. LeBron James and Nikola Jokičius share second place with 13 of those achievements.
“If it wasn’t the best game of his career, it was very close. The list of even better matches than this is very short. “We probably won’t see more impressive passing than here, and let’s score 36 points,” famous NBA journalist Zach Lowe said.
For the Mavs, this was the third time in the renewed NBA season and the second they managed to win.
The Bucks, like the Lakers, have been stuck lately, winning just once in four games.
Dallas Mavericks: Luka Dončičius 36, Dorian Finney-Smith 27, Kristaps Porzing 26 (Rev. 11), Maxi Kleber 15, Trey Burke 10.
Milwaukee Bucks: Giannis Antetokounmpo (13th ed., P. 5) and Brook Lopez 34, Chris Middleton 21 (11th ed.), Eric Bledsoe 15.
Results of next Saturday’s meetings:
Portland Trail Blazers – Los Angeles Clippers 117: 122 (CJ McCollum 29 / George 21);
