With Luka unfortunately getting hurt last night, his streak of consecutive 10+ games was snapped.
That puts the active list as…
1- LeBron 1,135
2- KD 105
3- Embiid 104
If they play all 82 & score 10+ each night, KD or Embiid could match LeBron early in the 2035-36 season. pic.twitter.com/jEfV40WWY5 – 10:54 AM

The 2023 NBA MVP race is wide open.
In October, Luka Doncic had the best odds. Then, in November, Giannis Antetokounmpo took the lead. In December, Jayson Tatum was the favorite. Now, Nikola Jokic has the best odds.

It won’t go into the books as a win w/o Luka since he played the first 3:21 before getting hurt, but this will go into the books as arguably, the Mavs most satisfying win of the season. Hopefully Luka’s ankle isn’t too bad, but the rest of the team proved something to themselves – 1:12 AM

The 4 games the Mavs have won on national TV exclusives have all been pretty dramatic. Golden State, two vs the Lakers and 99-95 tonight in Phoenix. After Luka was injured and his night ended a little over 3 mins into the game, Spencer Dinwiddie provided a season high 36 pts. – 12:59 AM

Happy for Finney-Smith, Dinwiddie and Powell, all of whom played out of their minds. And the defense was legit in the first scoreless game of Luka’s career. Winning without him (for all but 3-plus minutes) is going to do wonders for this team’s overall confidence. – 12:39 AM

This certainly isn’t the primary concern after Luka Doncic sprained his left ankle, but he will slip to second behind Joel Embiid among NBA scoring leaders. The scoreless 3-minute outing trims Doncic’s ppg from 33.8 to 33.0. Embiid is averaging 33.4 ppg. – 10:58 PM

Luka Dončić was named an All-Star Game starter tonight. He ties Ro Blackman for second most all-star appearances by a Mavs player at 4 and his 3rd start surpasses the 2 ASGs that Dirk started. 4 time all-stars before turning 24 are Luka, Kobe, LeBron, Shaq, Isiah & Anthony Davis. – 7:38 PM

More on this storyline
RingerNBA: “I look for individual play. I could give a s*** about a team.” @AustinRivers25 tells @paush who’s on his must-watch League Pass radar. ‘Kyrie Irving has the sexiest game on the basketball court’ … ‘I like watching him more than… him and Damian Lillard. I like Luka Doncic, it’s just a lot. It’s a lot. It’s a lot of Luka. He has the ball in like every possession. It’s kind of like James (Harden) those last couple of years in Houston, where I was with Houston.’ -via Twitter @ringernba / January 27, 2023
Adrian Wojnarowski: After hurting his left ankle in victory over Suns on Thursday, Mavericks All-Star Luka Doncic is expected to be day-to-day with what’s described as a “mild sprain,” sources tell ESPN. -via Twitter @wojespn / January 27, 2023
Coach Jason Kidd didn’t provide specifics on Doncic’s status after the game: “We’ll have probably more information once we get to Utah” on Friday. But Dinwiddie didn’t appear concerned after his leading production. “I don’t know if he’ll be back next game, or if he’ll miss a couple or something like that,” Dinwiddie said, “but it ain’t no cause for where we’re like, ‘Oh no, we’re about to go on a 10-game stretch without LD.’ He’s going to heal up nicely. He’s a young kid. Although he likes to think he’s old, he’s not.” -via Dallas Morning News / January 27, 2023
