After Action Report
The Mavericks handled the Trail Blazers 117-100. Mavericks controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Mavericks' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Trail Blazers. The Mavericks rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
