Utah Jazz 97, Dallas Mavericks 113 (Final)
What’s the buzz on Twitter?
If there was any question about the idea that “Dunks Are Fun,” check out this video from our @wfaa broadcast of the game, with highlights of the team record 18 dunks in the Mavs win vs Utah… pic.twitter.com/utNyfdUzvb – 1:04 AM
Small moment: Taylor Hendricks using Luka’s momentum against him then using every bit of his length here at the rim is a real clear sign of him improving on offense. Every night there’s little signs of growth from Hendricks and it should make a lot of people happy pic.twitter.com/yEkuwSIg8x – 1:00 AM
Mavs win 113-97 vs Utah. 7th win in the last 8 games and a fun one as the Mavs had another fantastic paint performance. A Dallas franchise record for dunks in this one with 18. The rundown….

Lively 2
Jones Jr. 2

Last season’s Mavericks were credited with 304 dunks in 82 games, led by Christian Wood’s 86.
Tonight they had a franchise record 18 dunks, 10 by Daniel Gafford. – 11:10 PM
I think there’s a real argument that’s the worst three-point shooting night in @UtahJazz history.
First time they’ve attempted at least 20 threes and shot below 14%.
Just so happens they shot 30 threes, made only four, good for 13.3%. – 11:08 PM
Dallas was -14.5 tonight vs. Utah. The Jazz miss a three-pointer with 22 seconds left. The Mavs rebound, run out the clock and win 113-97.
How do the people who set these lines do it? Seriously. – 11:08 PM
Look at that. The Dallas Mavericks keep winning the games they are supposed to. Weird. – 11:07 PM
Jazz lose 113-97 to the Mavs in Dallas. A rough shooting night for Utah, just 4-30 from 3-point range sunk them.
Markkanen had 21, Sexton 20.
Jazz have lost 11 of 14 since the All-Star break. – 11:03 PM
The Dallas Mavericks had 18 dunks tonight.
The most by a team in over 20 years. pic.twitter.com/DyUCdlS5St – 11:00 PM
Luka tonight:
34 PTS
9 REB
8 AST
Brought his averages down. statmuse.com/nba/player/luk… – 10:57 PM
18 dunks. A new franchise record 🔥

Luka Doncic had one of his worst offensive games at San Antonio on Tuesday, and he still managed to turn it into a positive moment. Here’s how:

Silver lining: the last time the Jazz were in Dallas is was a masterpiece of dog**** and Luka had a first-half triple-double.
This time, not as bad and it might take Luka the whole game to get a triple-double. – 10:48 PM
The refs aren’t the reason the @utahjazz are getting blown out, but they are clearly just guessing on some of these calls at the rim. – 10:39 PM
With Kings losing today to Wizards, Suns 7th in West. Kings 6th,
Pelicans 5th. Lost today at Magic. At Heat Sunday in 2nd of back-to-back.
New Orleans two games ahead of Kings, Suns and Mavs, who up 10 on Jazz going into 4th today.
Pelicans play Phoenix two more times. #Suns pic.twitter.com/WHAEIHzqvc – 10:32 PM
The Jazz are probably gonna lose this game, and I’m gonna write so many nice things about Taylor Hendricks – 10:21 PM
After his dunk in San Antonio Irving joked that maybe he’s like Benjamin Button, aging in reverse. Turns 32 in a fee days but couldn’t tell from that alley-oop. – 10:18 PM
Luka on the floor for a loose ball, behind the head pass from his ass to Kyrie who drives and throws up a beautiful alley-oop to DJJ … basketball beauty. – 10:10 PM
That this review isn’t a foul called on Luka Doncic is the most obvious example I have seen yet about the league altering how drives to the basket are being called. Donic impedes Lauri route and steps toward Lauri making contact. – 9:58 PM
“That aggressiveness comes with confidence and confidence comes with experience.”
Quin Snyder on Grayson Allen, who played for him in Utah. #Suns pic.twitter.com/SMKUgFSnTa – 9:52 PM
I’m going to go hate-watch this Jazz v Mavs game.
GO JAZZ GO DAMMIT pic.twitter.com/vNRGUCCbfM – 9:45 PM
“He’s somebody that’s demanding of himself, and so to see him having the kind of year he’s having, I’m sure it’s rewarding to him.”
Quin Snyder has enjoyed watching Grayson Allen, who played for him in Utah his rookie year, grow “tremendously” since then: pic.twitter.com/ZpNCbhSe9h – 9:42 PM
he just 𝗰𝗮𝗻’𝘁. 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽. 𝗗𝗨𝗡𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 🫡
that’s a first half 10-piece for Walker. pic.twitter.com/3dnf9xIIRE – 9:37 PM
strong float game from the rook, with the help of the bank 🏦 pic.twitter.com/lYEJa25ZWy – 9:33 PM
Kings lose to the 12-58 Wizards. It is now a 3-way tie at 29 losses with the Suns and Mavericks. Dallas is taking on Utah tonight. – 9:32 PM
Knock, knock. Double opportunity at the door for Dallas after losses tonight by the Pelicans and Kings. – 9:24 PM
Oh man, Daniel Gafford was just helped by teammates off the court and went straight into the tunnel. – 9:23 PM
A 1-point lead over the Mavs after shooting 16.7% from deep in the first is just about as good an outcome as the Jazz could imagine – 9:09 PM
Kessler is playing with intent on the offensive end which I suspect is both a result of Jazz guards looking for him, but also just him putting in better effort.
He should be a walking double-double based solely on size and athleticism and he’s showing that’s possible tonight. – 8:56 PM
Vital data for Mavs vs Jazz which tips off at 7:40p CDT on WFAA and our affiliates around Texas. Mavs at 40-29 and have won 6 of 7. Jazz are 29-40 and 3-14 since the trade deadline. pic.twitter.com/pwtKwajpU3 – 8:20 PM
Looks like Jazz are starting Keyonte George, Kris Dunn, Lauri Markkanen, Taylor Hendricks, and Walker Kessler tonight vs. DAL. – 8:07 PM
Mavs starters: Jones, Washington, Gafford, Irving, Doncic
Utah starters: Hendricks, Markkanen, Kessler, George Dunn
7:40 tip @971TheFreak – 8:04 PM
Max Abmas vs. Isaiah Stevens, a couple of Dallas-area kids.
Yes, they know each other. – 6:52 PM
Tonight’s game won’t be easy for the #Rockets. Bulls have won 6 of 9, including road wins over the Kings, Pacers, Jazz and Warriors. DeMar DeRozan (26.7 ppg), Coby White (21.3) and Nikola Vucevic (20.3) all averaging 20+ during that stretch. – 6:37 PM
Oregon victory is a win for KenPom, which had South Carolina as college basketball’s luckiest team. Second-luckiest in the tourney is Grambling, which may not apply against Purdue. Next-luckiest single-digit seed: Utah St – 6:19 PM
Tomorrow is an #askloj edition of the show. I have a few questions already in reaction to today’s show but want more great questions about the Jazz and the NBA. #askloj – 5:42 PM
The latest in the case for Victor Wembanyama to challenge for DPOY? The NBA’s top scorers already see him as a measuring stick.
“If you can finish on Wemby,” says Kyrie Irving, “I feel like you can finish on anybody in the world.”

Would @BYUMBB fans be happier if Jaxson Robinson went back to BYU, or, declared and was drafted by the @utahjazz with the 28th or 31st pick? – 3:49 PM
For Mavs vs Jazz tonight on WFAA, Josh Green (right ankle sprain) is the only injury for Dallas. Lauri Markkanen who did not play in OKC last night is available for the Jazz. Jordan Clarkson and John Collins are out. – 3:17 PM
I have a lot of petty ahead of me.
Texas-Oklahoma, Texas-Arkansas, Texas-Texas A&M. Longstanding, big petty coming my way.
But, Utah-BYU petty is special, man. Just body-slamming each other when they’re down bad. It’s awesome. – 3:11 PM
Since the trade deadline
Luka Doncic is averaging
33 points
10 rebounds
11 assists
on
49% FG
37% 3pt (10 per game)
