The Dallas Mavericks suffered a narrow 114-113 loss to the Phoenix Suns, with Coach Jason Kidd expressing frustration over his team's lack of energy and production from the bench. Despite a strong performance from Luka Doncic, who scored 30 points, and Kyrie Irving, who added 29 points, the Mavericks couldn't overcome a slow start and missed crucial opportunities, including a last-second 3-pointer by Doncic. Kidd criticized the bench's performance, stating, "Somebody has to join the party to help Ky and Luka, and that’s just not happening right now." The Mavericks have alternated wins and losses in their last five games since a strong start, underscoring the need for more consistent team effort. Meanwhile, the Suns improved to 8-1, matching their best start to an NBA season, thanks to a pivotal free throw by Jusuf Nurkic in the closing seconds. Kidd emphasized the importance of teamwork and toughness, regardless of injuries, as they prepare to review game footage for improvement.
