Luka for three 🏹🏹🏹 pic.twitter.com/9AS7L0OIhj – 9:50 PM

Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Warriors have lost four of five. Second seed is just about out the window. But rest of the conference is helping them maintain the #3 seed. Utah lost in Charlotte tonight. Dallas currently losing in Minnesota. Warriors still with a three-game cushion. – 9:49 PM
Brad Townsend @townbrad
With Atlanta’s win over Golden State, the Mavericks as of this moment trail the third-place Warriors by only two games in the loss column, but as you know Dallas currently trailed the Timberwolves by 13. – 9:48 PM
Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski
Really gritty minutes here from Anthony Edwards. Making like difficult for Luka and trying to create on the offensive end. He’s pushing himself here. – 9:46 PM
Atlanta Hawks PR @HawksPR
Trae Young has recorded his NBA-leading 18th 30+ point, 10+ assist game of the season. He has 11 more 30p/10a games than the next closest players: Luka Doncic (7), James Harden (7). – 9:46 PM

Beverley being Beverley. Powell is incredulous that he got called for the offensive foul. – 9:40 PM
Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski
Pat Beverley with an enormous block of Powell at the rim, then draws an offensive foul on Powell, his 4th.
Crowd is into it. – 9:40 PM

Tony Jones @Tjonesonthenba
And that’s it: the Jazz fall to the Hornets 107-101. Third consecutive loss for Utah. The jazz fall to 45-29 on the season, 1-3 on the road trip. Clutch minutes doom the Jazz again. On to Dallas and the Mavericks on Sunday night – 9:23 PM
Andy Larsen @andyblarsen
Jazz lose to Hornets, 107-101.
Mitchell: 26 points, 10-21 FG, 7 assists, 6 TOs.
Clarkson: 19 p, 7-18 FG, 4 assists, 1 TO.
Hernangomez: 14p, 5-9 FG, 5 rebs.
Gobert: 11p/19r.
Jazz lose three in a row going into critical Dallas matchup on Sunday. – 9:23 PM
Brad Townsend @townbrad
Charlotte defeats Utah, 107-101, so for the moment Dallas is alone in 4th place in the West. Golden State also trails Atlanta by 10 with 9 minutes left. – 9:23 PM
Eric Walden @tribjazz
FINAL: Hornets 107, Jazz 101. Utah with a third straight loss on this road trip. Too many turnovers, not enough defense late. Now 45-29 on the season. At Dallas on Sunday. Don: 26p/7a. Gobert 11p/19r. JC 19p/4a. Jazz just 11 total FTAs. – 9:22 PM
Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski
Malik Beasley is out for the rest of the game with a sprained left ankle, per Wolves – 9:22 PM

Doncic giving Beverley a taste of his own medicine. Beverely went over to chat with Chris Finch during the FT and Doncic jogged over to lean his head into the two-person huddle. – 9:08 PM

Per NBA Courtside that was Doncic’s 700th career 3-pointer. – 9:07 PM

Hard for Vanderbilt to play that Luka drive any better than he did. – 9:05 PM

Mavericks struggling at both ends. Can’t score and can’t stop the Wolves without fouling. That’s a rough combo. Result: 47-36 deficit with under 4 minutes left in the half. – 9:01 PM

Wolves, up 40-34, lose both Naz Reid and Malik Beasley as they retreat to the locker room to tend to injuries. Mavs about to get Luka back in the game. – 8:52 PM

17 minutes into the game, Naz Reid and Malik Beasley have both gone to the locker room with injuries. Looked like a hamstring for Naz and hip for Beasley. – 8:51 PM

Jimmy Butler’s fourth assist gave him 1,000 with the Heat. With that assist, he became 14th player in franchise history to record 1,000, reaching the mark in the fourth fewest games in franchise history. Only Hardaway (112 games), Douglas (126) and LeBron (151) faster to 1,000. – 8:46 PM

At the end of the first quarter, the @Minnesota Timberwolves lead 26-22.
Towns leads the way with 13 points, his 25th 10+ point first quarter of the season (98th career). – 8:40 PM
Brad Townsend @townbrad
After one quarter: Wolves 26, Mavs 22.
I figured Minnesota would try to throw a haymaker early. If they did, Mavs weathered it pretty well. – 8:39 PM
Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
One fan here lets Luka know he’s “washed”
Luka laughs and then immediately nutmegs Prince and Powell gets a dunk – 8:37 PM
Eddie Sefko @ESefko
Luka goes between the legs of Taurean Prince with a bounce pass to Kleber for the easy bucket. Mavericks still down 26-22 late in the first. – 8:36 PM

Kidd said before the game that the Mavs’ transition defense must be better than when the teams met Monday in Dallas. So far, it hasn’t. – 8:23 PM
Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
On Monday, the Wolves exclusively ran drop against Dallas in the first half. Tonight against Dallas (at least early), exclusively high wall. – 8:22 PM

Mavericks off to a solid start in Minnesota, up 14-11 at the first timeout. Doncic made a really tough fadeaway over Towns to energize the Mavs. – 8:21 PM
Brad Townsend @townbrad
Had some one-on-one Doncic-KAT action there, with Doncic swishing a turnaround as the shot-clock expired.
Another potential one-on-one to watch tonight: Towns and Doncic both have 14 technical fouls, two shy of an automatic one-game suspension. – 8:20 PM

Hardaway getting shots up. Kidd said earlier this week that he doesn’t expect THJ back for playoffs. Knowing Hardaway, he has other ideas. Who knows, if Mavs make lengthy run?
