Now Daniel Gafford has gone down with 9:07 left in the third quarter, pounding the floor, with what looked like a non-contact leg problem. He was able to walk to the bench. – 11:30 PM

Along w/ his historic finishing, Daniel Gafford had 7 blocks last night (season high) & the Mavs had 13 total (also season high). Fun note – Mavs are 12-5 in the last 17 games (9-5 post-trades). Dallas’ paint defense is better – opps are 53.9% on paint FGs in those 17. By… – 11:13 AM
