None involved loved the vibes that loomed over the Mavericks’ Saturday afternoon game against the New York Knicks and their first meeting against former...
For a few hours, the Mavericks ignored their continued friendship with Brunson to earn their first road win since Oct. 27 — and second in 22 games this season — thanks to a 24-for-61 three-point performance that threatened records for most attempts in an NBA game and most makes for a visiting team in this storied arena .
Doncic’s mood walking into Madison Square Garden about 2.5 hours before tipoff didn’t foreshadow the positive emotions to come. He answered a 3-of-11 shooting, 11-point, four-turnover performance in the first half by making 8 of his 9 shot attempts in the third quarter for 19 points. The production, part of a 34-9 run to close the period, ensured the Mavericks won their first game without Christian Wood in three tries this season.
They knew to prepare for his pivots in the paint and for his quick pull-up looks when in a rhythm and hoped to force the lefty Brunson into shooting layups on his right.
