In a nail-biting showdown, the Dallas Mavericks (47-30) clinched a narrow 108-106 victory over the Golden State Warriors (42-35) as P.J. Washington and Kyrie Irving starred in Luka Doncic’s absence due to a sore knee.
Washington delivered a standout performance with 32 points, including the tiebreaking layup in the final seconds, while Irving contributed 26 points.
The Mavericks strengthened their position in fifth place in the Western Conference, maintaining a two-game lead over seventh place as they strive for a playoff berth in the competitive conference.
Despite Stephen Curry’s 28-point outing for the Warriors, Golden State fell short of securing a postseason spot, missing an opportunity to clinch at least 10th place in the West. Klay Thompson added 16 points for the Dubs.
Irving’s extended playing time and all-around contribution, including eight rebounds and seven assists, were crucial in filling the void left by Doncic and guiding the Mavericks to victory.
