Slovenia was one step away from triple double and led by the Dallas Mavericks (6-4) 104: 93 (32:16, 28:27, 27:29, 17:21) beat the Charlotte Hornets (6-6).
Dončičius, 21, scored 34 points (9/16 double, 5/9 trit., 1/2 penalty), bounced 13 balls, distributed 9 assists and scored 43 utility points.
The defender blocked 4 pitches and set a career record.
After recovering from knee surgery in October, Porzingis scored 6 of 16 pitches in the first game of the season, scored 16 points, grabbed 4 balls and blocked 2 pitches.
“I tried to do everything I could in the minutes I spent on the field,” Porzing said after the game. – Sometimes you can’t make the best decisions when you want to play aggressively. But everything is fine, that’s part. I wanted to be energetic as soon as I entered the square. “
“Kristaps is a wonderful basketball player,” Dončičius praised his teammate. “He will need time to get back on track, but like in the first game, he played wonderfully.”
19-year-old Hornets talent, LaMelo Ballas, scored 2 shots of 8 in the game, missed the penalty and scored 4 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 errors and 3 personal fouls.
After scoring five straight points at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Dallas team gained a 20-point lead: 92:72. After Ballo’s colon, the Hornets were still 14 points closer – 78:92, but the team led by Rick Carlisle did not get close to the rivals and kept the initiative in their hands.
For the Mavericks club, this was the fourth consecutive victory after the start of the 2-4 season.
The Dallas team competed in five COVID-19 safety protocols without five basketball players: Jalen Brunson, Dorian Finney-Smith, Maxi Kleber, Dwight Powell, and Josh Richardson.
Hornets: Terry Rozier 18, PJ Washington (10 backs, 6 res.) And Gordon Hayward 16, Devonte Graham 12 (7 res).
Mavericks: Luka Dončičius 23 (13 reps, 9 res.), Timas Hardaway 18 (3/10 trit.), Kristaps Porzingis 16 (4/9 trit.).
