The Dallas Mavericks kept their playoff momentum alive with a nail-biting 107-103 victory over the Sacramento Kings 🏟️, tying Kyrie Irving’s ‘Uncle Drew’ flair to their sixth consecutive win! Luka Dončić faced relentless double teams but still orchestrated the offense, while Irving’s clutch plays sealed the deal in the final minutes.
Sacramento brought the heat early 🔥, with Domantas Sabonis bullying the paint (6 points, 4 assists in Q1) and Harrison Barnes/Keon Ellis combining for 22 first-half points. But the Mavs’ defense tightened up late, forcing critical turnovers to snap the Kings’ comeback hopes.
‘When Kyrie’s in his bag, it’s like watching art,’ said Mavs coach Jason Kidd postgame.
The win locks Dallas into 6th place in the wild Western Conference race. Can they keep this energy for the playoffs? 👀
