Mavericks, once again, could have used a "born closer" like Kyrie Irving. Here's a quick wrap-up. nba.com/mavs/news/mave…

Late-starting game. Of course it goes to overtime, as the Mavericks and Warriors are tied at 126 after 48 minutes. Loads of missed opportunities by both sides down the stretch.

All five Mavericks' starters have scored and they lead 17-14 midway through the first quarter.

Moses Moody will return tonight for Golden State. Mavericks still without Brandon Williams (concussion protocol) and Caleb Martin (heel contusion).

Walking into AAC before tonight's late game (8:30 tip), saw lots of jerseys. Most popular? Saw several No. 31 Klay Thompson Maverick jerseys, but only about half as many as his Warrior No. 11. Mavs' fans need to bring it with Dub fans in the house (despite Steph Curry's absence).

Overtime at AAC as P.J. Washington's follow shot comes just a shade after the buzzer. Kawhi Leonard with a drive to tie it in the final seconds before Cooper Flagg's midrange jumper was off and Washington's follow swished a moment too late.

Mavericks fight through a big lull in the third quarter to regain some momentum. They trail just 100-99 going into the fourth after trailing by 10 during the middle of the third.

Mavericks slow out of the gate in the third quarter. Clippers have outscored them 13-3 to go ahead 76-75 barely three minutes into the quarter. Darius Garland with 24 for the Clips.

Mavericks keeping their foot on the gas, leading 54-42 with 7:25 left in the half. Cooper Flagg with 11-4-3.

Mavericks with maybe their best offensive quarter of the season. Klay Thompson hits four triples without a miss and they own a 42-32 lead over the Clippers. Mavs shoot 60 percent overall.

Mavericks off to a splendid offensive start with lots of guys involved as they lead 30-26 with 2:26 left in the first. Four players with five points or more, led by Naji Marshall with seven.

Clippers are starting both Darius Garland and Kawhi Leonard. This is only the sixth time since the Feb. 4 trade for Garland that they have been in the starting lineup together. Former Maverrick Derrick Jones Jr., occasional Mavs' nemesis John Collins and Brook Lopez also start.

Cooper Flagg's ROY argument? It's etched in the history books. nba.com/mavs/news/mave…

Holy crap. Just when I was about to tweet out, Viva Steve Nash., That happened.

Looking svelte and moving great, Kyrie Irving taking advantage of a rare practice day for the Mavericks after a relentless string of games. Shooting over the long arm of the law.

Big win for the Mavericks, 130-120 at Cleveland. Cooper Flagg and PJ Washington both go big to key the Mavericks’ second road win in a row.

Mavericks really moving the ball well today at Cleveland. And another gem of a game by Cooper Flagg. Mavs up 110-90 and Flagg with another stat-stuffing game.
