No Jalen Brunson tonight and RJ Barrett now out for game with a first-quarter injury. Going to be fascinating to see how Thibs uses the bench with Derrick Rose, Evan Fournier and Cam Reddish all available for minutes. – 9:08 PM

Luka executes the two-for-one perfectly at the end of the first quarter. He hits a quick-trigger three, Knicks turn it over and then gets to the rim for a layup with 1 second left. Mavs only down 30-28 after 12 minutes. Luka with 16. – 9:06 PM

Jalen Brunson is out. RJ Barrett is out. Julius Randle has three fouls in the first quarter.
If Cam Reddish or Evan Fournier don’t play today, they never will. – 9:06 PM

Tremendous defensive possession from Grimes. Sticks with Doncic, doesn’t foul him when he goes up, contests a would-be shot enough that Doncic has to kick to the corner, then he comes to the block to help and when the corner shooter drives, he goes verticality & alters the layup. – 8:48 PM

Sixers trail by 11 at the half. They were down as many as 14 Sunday in New York, as many as 20 Friday vs. the Clippers.

📅 On this day in 1991, the @Golden State Warriors Tim Hardaway set an NBA record by missing all 17 of his shots from the field versus the T-wolves.
The previous mark of 15 attempts without a make was shared by multiple players. Hardaway’s record still stands.
