The Mavericks did everything they could to get eliminated from the NBA playoffs, with Doncic, Irving and other key players watching from the bench as they lost (112-115) to the Bulls inside the American Airlines Center.
Dallas seems to have chosen not to get involved in the play-in process, since when he was in front of the score with +15, Jason Kidd threw on the floor the… DeRozan and LaVine.
For the Mavericks, Doncic, Wright and Markieff Morris each had 13 points, while White led the visitors with 24 points, Williams had 23 and Vucevic had 20.
“I can’t speak for Luca, but we all said we wanted to take our chances, until we were told otherwise. And today is the day that our organization said it wants to do something differentKidd said after the match.
