Mavs Dominate Clippers in Playoff Opener
Doncic's Triple-Double Leads Mavericks to 2-0 Series Lead
The Dallas Mavericks have taken a commanding 2-0 lead in their Western Conference Finals series against the LA Clippers, thanks to a dominant performance from Luka Doncic in their 113-103 victory in Game 2.
Doncic, the reigning Rookie of the Year, put up a monster triple-double with 28 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. He led the Mavericks' offense, which shot 50% from the field and hit 13 three-pointers. Kristaps Porzingis added 23 points and 12 rebounds for Dallas.
The Clippers, who were playing without injured star Kawhi Leonard, struggled to keep up with the Mavericks' potent offense. Paul George led the Clippers with 26 points, but he was inefficient, shooting just 9-of-24 from the field. Montrezl Harrell added 22 points off the bench.
The Mavericks will look to take a commanding 3-0 lead in the series when they host Game 3 on Tuesday night.
