The Dallas Mavericks face the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday, May 7, 2024 (5/7/24) at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander gestures to fans as he celebrates at the end of the team's NBA basketball game against the Sacramento Kings, Tuesday, April 9, 2024, in Oklahoma City.
Dallas beat LA for the first time in three first-round tries over the past five seasons — and Irving improved to 13-0 in closeout games for his career. Instead, injuries and inconsistencies kept the chemistry from developing, and Dallas missed the playoffs, unceremoniously tanking late in the regular season to try to preserve a draft pick.
“I’m just in awe each and every night,” said P.J. Washington, a trade deadline addition this year and a key provider of 3-point shooting and defense. “They’re special players and they make special plays each and every night.” Irving hasn’t been scoring early — just 10 points combined in the first quarters of the six games against LA. But he’s been scoring late.
Doncic finally beat the Clippers after losing each of the first two playoff series of his career to Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and company in 2020 and 2021.
