The Dallas Mavericks got nice contributions from most of their players. Harrison Barnes led the team in scoring, getting 25 points on 5-8 shooting from beyond the arc, while Luka Doncic scored 24 points.

DeAndre Jordan, who signed with the Mavericks in this year's free agency, got another double double for himself. Jordan is 3rd in rebounds per game in the NBA at the moment, averaging 13.6 rebounds.

The Mavs also got good production from the bench unit. J.J. Barea scored 18 points coming off the bench on 7-11 shooting from the floor. Finney-Smith got 11 points and also contributed defensively with 3 steals and 1 block.

The Mavs are looking good at the moment. They next face the bottom placed team in the NBA, Phoenix Suns, in the second game of a back-to-back run.

They will be looking to extend their winning streak and consolidate their position in the Western Conference standings.
