Victory in a match-thriller with an improbable ending for them Dallas Maverickswhich prevailed 107-105 by the Denver Nuggets thanks to his terrific buzzer beater two-pointer Kyrie Irving!
The 32-year-old guard gave his team the victory in stoppage time, sending the ball into the basket with one hand and while Jokic defended him…
The champions were in control of the match and maintained a small lead both in the first twelve minutes (34-30) and at halftime (61-58), with the Mavs gradually increasing their performance and leading in the final stretch of the match.
In fact, they went as far as +9, up 100-99 with just 4:40 to go, but saw the Nuggets respond with a blistering 14-2 run to take a three-point lead with less than half a minute left.
There, Mr Doncic tied first with a 3-pointer followed by a missed attempt by Murray before Irving took over.
The Slovenian led the winners with 37 points and nine rebounds, while Murray had 23 points for Denver – with Jokic having a double-double with 16 points and eleven rebounds.
OH MY GOODNESS, KYRIE IRVING WINS THE GAME WITH A LEFT-HANDED FLOATER!?
