Luka Doncic recorded his 18th triple-double of the season on Tuesday in the Dallas Mavericks' 113-107 win over the San Antonio Spurs. Doncic had a very poor shooting night but still contributed in other facets of the game. Kyrie Irving also had a big game for the Mavs to inch closer to a potential top six finish.
Doncic ended the game with 18 points, 10 rebounds and 16 assists but went an abysmal 6-for-27 from the field. He was also 2-for-11 from beyond the arc and had four turnovers. Irving had a game-high 28 points to lead the Mavs to their 40th win of the season.
Dante Exum was huge off the bench with 16 points and Dereck Lively II added 12 points and five boards. The Mavs contained Victor Wembanyama to just 12 points, but allowed five other Spurs players to reach double digits and were lucky to get away with the win in San Antonio.

Luka Doncic prop bets results
Luka Doncic entered Tuesday's game with an over/under of 33.5 points, 9.5 rebounds and 10.5 assists. He was favored to go over his points and rebounds totals and to go under his assists total.
Due to his career-worst shooting night, "Luka Magic" went under his points prop, which might have cost a lot of people some money. He did go over his rebounds with 10 and went way over his assists with 16.
Those who took the risk and bet on Doncic to go over his assists total earned some tonight. But his 18-point performance probably destroyed a lot of parlays, as he's averaging 34.1 points per game this season.

Mavs have a shot at finishing top 6 in the West
The Dallas Mavericks (40-29) are seventh in the Western Conference. They are technically tied with the Sacramento Kings but don't own the tie-breaker. They still have a shot at getting back the tie-breaker, as they face the Kings two more times this season.
The Phoenix Suns are right behind the Mavs and Kings, but the Mavs own the tie-breaker over them. Dallas will have the higher seed if they have an identical record with Phoenix at the end of the regular season.
It also helps that the Mavs have an easier schedule than the Kings and Suns for the remainder of the campaign. Dallas has the second-easiest, while Sacramento and Phoenix are in the top 10 with the toughest schedule, as per Tankathon.
