The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Portland Trail Blazers 100–93 on March 27 at the Moda Center, staying well below the Vegas total of 240.5 in a defensive-minded affair. Marvin Bagley III led Dallas with 26 points while Donovan Flagg added 24, as the Mavericks shot 44.4 percent from the field and made 7 three-pointers. Portland's J. Holiday and Deni Avdija combined for 43 points but couldn't overcome their team's sluggish offensive execution—the Trail Blazers shot just 39.2 percent and turned the ball over 24 times. Dallas controlled the opening quarter with 32 points, establishing early momentum that Portland never fully recovered from despite a strong second quarter (29 points). The Mavericks' ball movement proved decisive, as they dished out 24 assists while forcing 12 steals and holding Portland to a 89.8 offensive rating. The Trail Blazers' fourth-quarter collapse (17 points) sealed the outcome. Dallas's defensive rating of 89.8 versus Portland's 96.0 underscored the visitors' superiority on that end. The loss further complicates Portland's playoff positioning as the Mavericks solidify their standing in the Western Conference.
