OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - P.J. Washington had 27 points and a career-high 17 rebounds, and the Dallas Mavericks held off the Oklahoma City Thunder 121-119 on Sunday night without star guard Luka Doncic.
Washington averaged just over eight points and seven rebounds per game entering Sunday's game but stepped up in the absence of Doncic, who was out with a bruised right knee.
The Mavericks' offense purred anyway. Kyrie Irving scored 23 points and helped Dallas shoot 48% from the field.
