Golden State Warriors vs. Dallas Mavericks last game stats and summary

The Warriors and Mavericks faced off on Tuesday at Chase Center. The Warriors won that game 104-100 against all expectations. Dallas was coming off an 11-2 run and a seven-game winning streak, but it didn't matter as Golden State handled business at home behind a solid team effort.

Andrew Wiggins dropped 23 points, while five others scored in double digits. The key difference was better defense and winning the 50-50 plays, which handed the Warriors the edge in this game. They outrebounded the Mavericks 52-42 and scored 25 points off turnovers.

The Mavericks got solid games from Luka Doncic (30 points), Kyrie Irving (27 points) and PJ Washington (20 points). But the rest of the group struggled to score freely and contribute, another area the Warriors dominated.

Friday could be another close contest, and the Mavericks could gain from the Warriors potentially missing Jonathan Kuminga and Andrew Wiggins. The Mavericks, meanwhile, will have a nearly healthy roster available.

They also got the momentum back with a 109-95 win over the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday, with Irving and Doncic continuing their hot streak.
