Luka Doncic was a game-time decision, but he ended up playing and helped the team to a 110-93 victory. The All-Star forward finished with 16 points, six rebounds, six assists and two steals while shooting 6/16 from the field and 3/9 from the three-point range in 28 minutes of playing time.

Before the season, Mavericks coach Jason Kidd insisted that Doncic’s presence will be needed on the defensive end in order for the Mavericks to be successful.
