"It was very physical. 2 overtimes, a lot of minutes. We had to stay focused, but we came through. A win is a win," Doncic said in his post-game comment for TNT.

The Mavericks star forced both overtimes with a step-back 3-pointers, despite not scoring for 17 minutes in the second half.

"I get to my step-back, that's it. We were down by three, so I was going to attack with a three," Doncic said.

Spencer Dinwiddie stepped up for Dallas tonight, scoring 17 points and adding 4 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks.

Dinwiddie got praise from his team's star.

"He's an amazing player. He can dunk, he can score. He's really a great player, he helped us a lot. He won the game tonight," Doncic concluded.

Doncic averages 34.3 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 8.8 assists per game this season.
