The Golden State Warriors faced the Dallas Mavericks in one of the best games on Thursday night in the NBA, as it was the duel between two of the best goalkeepers in the league. Stephen Curry, who is finally recovered from his injuries, faces Luka Doncic, the man of records.
In addition to what drew the game from the last name, it proved to be fundamental to the playoff qualifiers. Both the Warrios and the Mavericks came into play outside the top eight in the Western Conference, so a victory or a defeat, being a direct rival, could change things a lot.
The game began the first quarter virtually defenseless. As was customary throughout the season, the two teams were free on the sidelines to avoid points, although very effective when it came to scoring. 36-34 at the end of the first 12 minutes in favor of the visit are proof of this.
The Mavericks adjusted a few things and hit a high in the second quarter (66-59), taking the first half 110-95. However, the Golden State Warriors returned to the indictment in the second half and scored a 36-20 run in the third quarter.. Too much difference, Stephen Curry and company took the game 147-116.
Stephen Curry also scored more than Luka Doncic
Stephen Curry signed a list of 28 points and 6 assists, although the top scorer of the game was Kelly Oubre Jr. The striker surprised everyone and scored 40 points, while Juan Toscano did his job with 14. On the other hand, Luka Doncic added 27 points and was not even close to a double-double.
