The Clippers defeated the Dallas of “Triple” Doncic with Leonard
With Kawhi Leonard stopping at 30 points and 10 rebounds, the Paul George-less Clippers moved past Dallas and beat the Irving-less Mavericks 120-111, despite Luka Doncic’s triple-double.
The Clippers played in Dallas without Paul George, the Mavericks without Kyrie Irving. But the LA team had Kawhi Leonard and, most importantly, enough help from his teammates to lead his team to a 111-120 victory.
Leonard was great – once again – finishing the game with 30 points and 10 rebounds, while Norman Powell added 21 points and James Harden added 17 points and 11 assists as the Clippers now have a 9-game winning streak.
For the Mavericks, Luka Doncic had 28 points (but 9/25 shooting), 10 rebounds and 10 assists, with Tim Hardaway contributing 21 points (but 8/21 shooting) and Derrick Jones 19 points.
