The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Brooklyn Nets 119–111 on December 12 at American Airlines Center, staying below the Vegas total of 218.5 in a defensive grind. A.J. Davis led Dallas with 24 points while Creighton Flagg added 22, as the Mavericks shot 48.9 percent from the field and made 10 three-pointers to control the game's rhythm. Brooklyn's Mikal Porter Jr. erupted for 34 points and D. Wolf contributed 17, but the Nets' 17 turnovers and fourth-quarter collapse—they scored just 19 points in the final frame—proved fatal. Dallas's 33 assists and balanced offensive approach (109.5 rating) overwhelmed Brooklyn's 108.4 rating despite the Nets' three-point volume (17 made). The Mavericks' 10 steals and stout fourth-quarter defense (25 points allowed) sealed the outcome after Dallas led 90–80 entering the final quarter. Dallas's win reinforces their defensive identity as they climb the Western Conference standings.
