Coming off a great win in Denver, the Memphis Grizzlies were unable to form any sort of momentum falling to the Dallas Mavericks to a score of 104-91. There were many flaws in the Grizzlies’ performance but the struggles offensively were definitely the greatest.

Other than Ja Morant nobody was able to give substantial contributions on offense. Combine that with the stellar play from Mavs duo, Kristaps Porzingis and Luka Doncic, it would be hard for any team to come away with a win.

Tip of the hat to the Dallas Mavericks

The Dallas Mavericks have been on a bit of a hot streak and after defeating the Memphis Grizzlies, that streak continues. Luka Doncic was simply sensational with his performance against the Grizzlies.

The 22-year-old superstar posted 37 points, 11 rebounds, and nine assists. His impact on this game can’t be mentioned enough and single handily pushed the Mavericks to victory.

It can’t go without saying just how good he really is, but he put on a show in his duel with Ja Morant at the point guard position. Although Luka and the Mavericks were great, let’s look at some studs and duds from the Memphis Grizzlies in this loss.
