Luka Doncic follows up a historic week averaging more than 48 points by leading the Dallas Mavericks to an 18-point turnaround win over the Houston Rockets.
Luka Doncic finished with a game-high 39 points and engineered an 18-point, second-half comeback that allowed the Dallas Mavericks to extend their winning streak to seven games with a 111-106 road victory over the Houston Rockets on Monday .
Doncic then assisted on treys from Reggie Bullock and Christian Wood, and his two free throws with 3:33 left were part of a 14-4 run that helped the Mavericks seize control. Spencer Dinwiddie sealed it with a 17-footer with 10.5 seconds left. Kevin Porter Jr. led Houston with 25 points and six assists, while Jalen Green added 20 points but missed 12 of 17 shots. Eric Gordon scored 19 points and Alperen Sengun posted 16 points, six rebounds and five assists for the Rockets, who dropped their seventh straight home game.
The Rockets played a key role in the Mavericks’ rally with their inability to defend without fouling. Houston committed 10 fouls in the third quarter and the Mavericks finished 16 of 17 from the line, with Doncic going 9 of 10.
