What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Mavs win 111-101 tonight vs the Nuggets. Critical run fueled by a mix of bench & starters in late 3rd/early 4th as Dallas erases a 13 pt 3Q deficit & took lead for good on a Reggie Bullock 3 w/ 11:06 left. Porzingis w/ 29 pts & 11 rebs. Hardaway 13 of 19 pts in 4Q. Luka 23P/11A – 11:55 PM

Trae Young, on teams guarding him lately with players who are essentially power forwards (Gordon in DEN, Wagner tonight).

Asked Austin how MPJ is doing: “He wants to play well really badly, obviously just because he loves the game, first and foremost. Forget his contract. … This dude, whether he got paid $200 million or $2 million would approach it the same way. It’s what I love about him.” – 11:12 PM

Kristaps Porzingis said he talked with Luka for a bit after the game: “He’s always just, ‘Hey, I’ll be good. I’ll be good.’ Hopefully he is good. I don’t think we know yet what it is, but we’re hoping he’s healthy.” – 11:07 PM

We won’t hear from Doncic tonight because he is getting treatment on his ankle. Also, the Mavs have cancelled tomorrow’s practice, so we might not get an update on Doncic’s condition before the team flies to Phoenix tomorrow afternoon. – 10:55 PM

On that injury to Luka with just 44 seconds left in the 111-101 win over Denver, Jason Kidd said: “Luka walked off on his own power. I think he got rolled up on his lower left leg, so we’ll see how he feels tomorrow.” – 10:54 PM

Jason Kidd said Luka Doncic walked off on his own power at game’s end. Said he got his left lower leg rolled on. “We’ll see how he feels tomorrow.” – 10:52 PM

Tim Hardaway Jr. on Mavs fourth-quarter lineup: “I think it was funky.” – 10:46 PM


Jason Kidd on Luka Doncic’s ankle injury w/44 seconds left to play tonight: “Luka walked off on his own power. I think he got rolled up on on his lower left leg. We’ll see how he feels tomorrow.” – 10:44 PM

Mavs build on their best game of the year in SA, with their best game of the year in beating DEN. They’re starting to gain momentum, and it’s needed because these next couple of weeks are going to be brutal. – 10:41 PM

Kind of a bloodbath tonight. Injuries from the game action this evening so far:
Evan Mobley (sprained right elbow), Time Lord (sharp pain in left knee), Mitch Robinson (ankle), Kevin Porter Jr. (thigh), Bones Hyland (ankle), Kevin Huerter (hamstring) – 10:39 PM

Luka Dončić finished with 23 points, 8 rebounds and 11 assists tonight.
Dončić has now recorded at least 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in each of his last six games.
It is now the longest streak of 20-5-5 across the @NBA season (previous: Paul George, 5 games). pic.twitter.com/tlS4BYgms6 – 10:32 PM



Heading to the Loser’s Lounge. Come join. Let’s crack jokes and break this all day.
✅ Injuries adding up
✅ At least we have Jokic
✅ Monte rising
✅ Is the Nuggets bench back on the struggle bus?

Luka Doncic leaves Mavs’ win over Nuggets in final minute with apparent ankle injury dallasnews.com/sports/maveric… – 10:29 PM

Kristaps Porzingis finished with 29 points (5-8 3FG), 11 points, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block in tonight’s win. The Mavericks improved to 13-5 all-time when Porzingis goes for 25+ points and 10+ boards.
Since returning from injury, Porzingis is averaging 23.2 ppg and 9.0 rpg. pic.twitter.com/dCXBmNqUC7 – 10:29 PM

Mavericks get some payback on Nuggets, 111-101.

Final rotations for the Nuggets as they lose to the Mavs 111-101. A classic “ran out of gas” game for the starters.
Big difference is the bench has to pick you up in these situations. 10-point loss and they go:

Bones: -16
PJ: -16

Tip of the cap to Tim Hardaway Jr., who was brilliant in the 4th quarter for the Mavs with 13 points. End the end, the #Nuggets only had 1 good defensive quarter – the 2nd – and that cost them, snapping a 5-game winning streak. They’ll get back at it vs. Philly on Thursday. – 10:21 PM

That @Dirk Nowitzki fade, Halleluka! pic.twitter.com/WvkImKbifz – 10:21 PM

Looked like Rivers fell on Luka, forcing his left ankle into eversion. That stresses the medial ankle, the area opposite a “normal” ankle sprain. Hope he’s ok. – 10:20 PM

There goes Denver’s five-game winning streak. Jokic’s season-high 35 points wasn’t enough as Denver’s injuries caught up to them.
Mavs 111, Nuggets 101. – 10:20 PM

Mavs’ beat the Nuggets 111-101 for their first win over a team with a better record this season.
KP was great (29 points, 11 reb, 3 ast), but Luka turning his ankle in the final minute was less so. – 10:19 PM

Porzingis was INCREDIBLE tonight. Spectacular even as he had his best game in years.
He’ll deserve the national attention that’ll come his way as he finished with 29 points and 11 rebounds.
He was STILL the 2nd best player on the court as Nikola Jokic had a modest 35/16/6. – 10:18 PM

Nikola Jokic has scored 35 of Denver’s 98 points tonight — it won’t be enough. Nuggets’ five-game winning streak is over. Denver hosts Philly Thursday. – 10:18 PM


As Mavs are closing out their best win of the season, Luka Doncic limps off after turning his left ankle with 44 seconds remaining. – 10:17 PM

Denver got tired, Dallas played well, and a couple of bounces that either found luck or didn’t made a big difference. Fun game, now let’s try and get these teams together when neither is on a back to back. – 10:17 PM

Believe it or not, missing 3 of your 4 best players on the second night of a back to back is not easy. Nuggets five-game winning streak is on the verge of being snapped on Dallas right now. – 10:16 PM

Blazers start this game exactly the same way they began Sunday’s loss at Denver. Portland is down 13-3 not even three minutes into the game. UGLY. – 10:16 PM

Mavs’ closing lineup of Luka-Brunson-THJ-Reggie-KP has been quite productive. – 10:14 PM






Up to 28 points for Nikola.
Need one final push. pic.twitter.com/j1Qc4NsbDN – 10:05 PM

Bones Hyland is able to return if needed, I’m told, but he’s obviously dealing with a left ankle issue. – 10:05 PM

Cade Cunningham (20 yrs, 51 days) became the youngest player in NBA history with at least 25 pts, 8 rebs, 8 asts and 5 3FGM in a game. He is followed by LeBron James (20 yrs, 100 days), Trae Young (20 yrs, 163 days) & Luka Doncic (20 yrs, 248 days). #Pistons
(via @EliasSports) – 10:03 PM

Nuggets are short-handed and Malone sees his team losing momentum.
Jokic is in earlier than usual to try and get the momentum back for Denver and stop the bleeding – 9:59 PM

Bones Hyland just hobbled to the Nuggets bench. He’s got his shoe off and is holding his left ankle. – 9:59 PM


JaMychal Green just slammed Frank Ntilikinia
Finney-Smith got in his face and Green went off on him.
Now while the play is under review he is STILL going at it with Mavs guys on the other side of the court.
After the review a double-technical foul on Green-DFS. – 9:56 PM

The Jokic incident has the whole league nervous as hell whenever there’s any kind of altercation. 😂😂 – 9:54 PM

Hope everyone has someone who supports them as much as the ex-Knicks Mavs love Frank Ntilikina. – 9:54 PM

Aftermath of Green/Finney-Smith dustup. Ntilikina got knocked to the court by Green and Finney-Smith strongly objected. pic.twitter.com/kWXtDRnLKV – 9:53 PM

Mavs and Nugs haver a little dust-up with Reggie Bullock and JaMychal Green in the middle of it. Green gave a strong forearm to the chest area. – 9:52 PM

JaMychal Green looked like he wanted to dance with the whole Mavericks roster. – Ver noticia en Trending
