Luka protagonist with 23 points, 8 rebounds and 10 assists in the success of the Mavs over the Kings
While America celebrates Halloween, Doncic disguises himself as Harry Potter and with some magic of his drags the Mavericks to success on Sacramento. Dallas eventually wins 105-99.
NOW LUKA MAGIC
–
Kristaps Porzingis still in the pits, always struggling with a back problem. The Mavericks want to try to quickly forget Friday’s boarding in Denver and start off with their foot on the gas. The usual Luka Doncic takes care of giving the distracted defense of Sacramento a headache and after only four minutes the Texan team is already ahead 17-3. With the passing of the minutes, however, the Kings find a minimum of rhythm in attack. Fox and Barnes limit the damage, Dallas then slows down on an offensive level as the Slovenian takes his breath on the bench and Sacramento returns to the match in the final of the first quarter. The production of Haliburton also arrives at the beginning of the second period the Californian team, which also receives a good contribution under the basket from Thompson, so it returns to -1. With Doncic on the court, however, Dallas takes over the reins of the match. A couple of triples from Hardaway Jr. help, the Mavs return to play their basketball and with a good first half finish they reach the break ahead 53-47. The visiting team that relies on Barnes restarts with the right spirit and takes back Dallas. Holmes and Thompson make themselves felt in the painted area, the Kings seem ready to accelerate but the excellent impact from Ntilikina’s bench allows the hosts to close the third fraction in crescendo, with a partial 10-2, and to reach the double-digit advantage.
THE TRIPLE WITH THE LOGO
–
The Mavs seem able to reject the attempt to return sacrament, they arrive at +12 at 8’13 ” from the siren but suddenly they lose security in defense and the Kings with a quick break of 10-1 return to -3, with the triple of Hield. It is up to Doncic to wear the role of the magician, then, and with a spatial play he changes the direction of the match. The Slovenian, in fact, in the most important moment of the match finds the basket with a conclusion from the Mavs logo, just past the halfway point, causing the American Airlines Center to explode. 10 ” later, Finney-Smith’s dunk on the counterattack knocks Sacramento out. The rest is academy.
