Mavericks End Losing Streak Against Spurs

The Dallas Mavericks ended a four-game losing streak with a 110-93 victory against the San Antonio Spurs, who were without star player Victor Wembanyama due to a bruised right knee. Wembanyama, the NBA Rookie of the Year, was injured in a recent game against the Los Angeles Lakers, leaving Zach Collins to lead the Spurs with 20 points. Kyrie Irving and Daniel Gafford each scored 22 points for the Mavericks, who capitalized on Wembanyama's absence, particularly dominating in the paint with a 46-22 scoring advantage. Luka Doncic contributed 16 points but played a season-low 28 minutes. The Spurs are set to start a three-game homestand against Oklahoma City, while the Mavericks will also face Oklahoma City next. This match showcased the Mavericks' ability to adjust and perform in critical situations, as they aim to improve their season performance.
