The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Brooklyn Nets 123–114 on February 24 at Barclays Center, pulling away despite a sluggish second half. M. Bagley III led Dallas with 22 points, while N. Marshall added 21 in a balanced scoring attack. The Mavericks' offensive efficiency proved decisive, shooting 58.5% from the field and dominating the glass with 44 rebounds to Brooklyn's 28. Dallas controlled the opening two quarters, outscoring the Nets 76–64 through the first half, then held firm in the final frame despite both teams combining for just 47 points. M. Porter Jr. paced Brooklyn with 26 points and N. Clowney contributed 22, but the Nets' 51.3% shooting and 13 three-pointers couldn't overcome their 126.1 defensive rating or 15 turnovers from Dallas. The final total of 237 points exceeded Vegas's 226.5 line. Dallas' rebound advantage and second-quarter dominance—40 points in the period—proved the difference in a matchup that saw the visitors' defense clamp down when it mattered most.
