The Dallas Mavericks recently faced the Indiana Pacers at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Texas-based franchise lost the game 111-133, which is a shock because they had both Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving available for the game tonight. But it looks like Tyrese Haliburton and Co. had enough firepower to take down the Mavs with ease.
Both Luka and Kyrie were the standout players of the night, scoring 33 and 29 points respectively. Josh Green contributed with 14 points as well. But the difference between the two teams was the solidified effort from the Pacers, including Haliburton, Pascal Siakam, and Myles Turner.
