The Thunder fell to the Mavericks on Wednesday night, leaving Dallas ahead 3-2 in the series.
Oklahoma City's Game 4 left little room for doubt that this team could overcome late-game leads and face any challenge thrown at them.
Doncic's 31 points on 12-for-20 from the field trumped Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's 30-point performance, but more importantly reaped the riches of a 25.0% 3-point night from Oklahoma City. Leaving Giddey to check in around the 4:30 mark, his entrance wasn't the most impactful defensively of course, but he did offer a score and helped Oklahoma City stay within striking range by the end of the frame with the score at 24-22. Gilgeous-Alexander had his typical hand in the scoring department, and anchored the Thunder primarily in a half-court setting.
