Tonight, the Mavericks got their ninth victory in 10 games and fifth in a row in a win over the Memphis Grizzlies, but the game had other implications as well –

Luka Doncic had 37 points and 12 rebounds, Spencer Dinwiddie and P.J. Washington Jr. hit clutch 3-pointers in the final two minutes, and the Dallas Mavericks overcame a 15-point deficit to beat the Memphis Grizzlies 121-116 on Tuesday night and advance to the NBA Cup quarterfinals.

The Thunder played the Mavericks once this year on Nov. 17. It resulted in a close loss. PJ Washington went off for a season-high 27 points as Luka Doncic sat out due to injury. Dallas' superstar has returned since then. Both teams will now square off against each other four times this season.
