The Mavericks lose their fourth straight game, all in the clutch, this time to the Utah Jazz
The Dallas Mavericks went to Salt Lake City desperately searching for a win, having lost their last three games, all in clutch situations. To pick up a win against the Utah Jazz, they'd have to do it without Kyrie Irving, who was a late scratch with a shoulder sprain.
Dallas' offense couldn't take advantage of Utah's start, and the Jazz started to chip away toward the end of the first quarter. Turnovers and missed bunnies were a huge issue as the Jazz chipped the lead down to 26-25 in the final two minutes remaining in the quarter. Dallas would lead 28-27 heading into the second, which is just their fourth time leading the game heading into the second quarter this season.
Before they knew it, though, the Mavericks were facing a 12-point hole as the Jazz were on a 25-7 run to go up 90-78. Turnovers and fouls remained an issue against a bad Jazz team, but the Mavericks were beating themselves. They were hesitant to shoot, lacking energy, and in their own heads as they faced a 99-85 deficit heading into the fourth quarter.
Dallas would retake the lead with 1:33 to go with a give-and-go between Doncic and Marshall leading to a lob for Lively. Jordan Clarkson would convert on an and-one for the Jazz to go back up 111-110, Jaden Hardy bricked an open three, then John Collins cleaned up a Jordan Clarkson miss to extend the lead to 113-110 with 36.7 seconds to go.
