The Dallas Mavericks edged the New Orleans Pelicans 118–115 on November 21 at the American Airlines Center in a closely contested matchup that hinged on third-quarter execution. C. Flagg led Dallas with 29 points while P. Washington contributed 24, as the Mavericks shot 47.6 percent from the field and connected on 16 three-pointers to establish control. New Orleans countered with T. Murphy III scoring 25 points and Z. Williamson adding 22, but the Pelicans' three-point drought—just 7 made—proved costly despite shooting 46.2 percent overall. Dallas' third quarter proved decisive, outscoring New Orleans 36–22 in that frame to build separation. The Mavericks' 112.0 offensive rating and 105.9 defensive rating reflected balanced execution, while New Orleans' 15 steals showed defensive intensity that went unrewarded. Dallas' 20 turnovers versus New Orleans' 13 indicated sloppiness the Mavericks overcame through superior perimeter shooting and bench depth. The victory keeps Dallas competitive in the Western Conference standings as both teams jockey for playoff positioning.
