Luka Doncic flirted with a triple-double, posting 33 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists, Jalen Brunson scored 24 points off the bench, and the Dallas Mavericks weathered a late surge to beat the Orlando Magic, 130-124, Monday at the Amway Center in Orlando, Fla.
The Mavericks led by 18 points with fewer than five minutes to go, but Orlando powered back behind Nikola Vucevic. The center scored 10 of his team-high 29 points over the game’s final 4:06.
Terrence Ross, who scored 18 points off the bench, made a 3-pointer in the final minute that pulled Orlando within five points.
Dallas’ lead proved insurmountable – as did Doncic.
