The offensively challenged Mavericks are down 49-37 at halftime. But Luka and KP look good on the sideline in street clothes. Mavs shooting 7-of-23 from both inside and outside the arc. That’s .304 if you didn’t have your calculator handy. – 9:37 PM

The Mavericks have been stuck on 24 points for what seems like an eternity. They are down 38-24. Actually, it’s only been 2 1/2 minutes of clock time. But seems longer. – 9:23 PM

Classic Boban: He somehow forced Steven Adams into an offensive foul by running as fast as he could to get back on defense and then not being able to slow down his 7-4 body before toppling over.
Boban wrapped his arm around Adams’ cheeks after they got up. – 9:04 PM

During that break, Luka was looking over papers and talking with Igor Kokoskov on the court.
Back to being what he called “the 10th coach,” though Luka admitted he doesn’t know the exact number of coaches the Mavs actually have. – 8:58 PM

Jason Kidd said Luka got an MRI on his left ankle today, but didn’t say what scans showed. Injury is “lingering” from original sprain Nov. 15.
“He’s been sore. It’s just been a busy stretch of games.”
Also, Kristaps Porzingis is still “getting treatment” on left knee contusion. – 7:09 PM

Per Mavs coach Jason Kidd, Luka Doncic had an MRI today on the sore left ankle that he sprained recently and will be day-to-day after sitting out tonight.
Kristaps Porzingis (knee contusion) will also be day-to-day after sitting out the second straight night. – 6:57 PM
