Things didn’t go as planned for the Dallas Mavericks in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals on Friday night. After jumping out to a double-digit lead, the Mavericks saw the Golden State Warriors go on a run in the third quarter to grab the lead and eventually win the game, taking a 2-0 series lead.
But not everything was a disaster for the Mavericks. One player that stood out was former UNC basketball wing [autotag]Reggie Bullock[/autotag].
He played a team-high 44 minutes and scored 21 points including all six of his field goals as three-pointers. Bullock also added three free throws to his stat line.
This postseason has been a big one for Bullock and his all-around game, showing up defensively in critical times. But with the Mavericks down 0-2 in the series, they are going to need Bullock to up his offensive game and keep this going as well.
Game 3 takes place Sunday in Dallas.
