In a stunning Sunday showdown, the Dallas Mavericks completed an impressive comeback, overcoming a 22-point deficit to claim a 147-136 overtime victory against the Houston Rockets. The defeat means that the Rockets are now out of contention for a place in the postseason despite an impressive campaign.

Kyrie Irving was the star of the night with a season-high 48 points, showcasing his scoring prowess and clutch play. Luka Doncic delivered with 37 points, 12 assists, and nine rebounds, demonstrating his all-around skills and leadership on the court.

The Mavericks completed the stunning comeback but needed a dramatic buzzer-beating three-pointer from Dante Exum to send the game into overtime. The chemistry between Doncic and Irving was evident, as they trusted each other and rallied their team to victory.

 

 

Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd praised his superstar duo, emphasizing trust and teamwork:

 

“It’s just about the trust, the talk, and understanding that we have each other’s back. We’re playing for something bigger than the back of the jersey – we’re playing for one another.”

 

With this win, the Mavericks edge closer to sealing the fifth seed in the Western Conference playoffs. Meanwhile, the Rockets, despite winning 11 consecutive games earlier this season, are no longer in contention for the postseason.

NBA Twitter and Mavs fans in general however, were in absolute awe over their star duo.
