The Mavericks’ mark from the free throw line. Anemic. And something that caused them to sweat it out more than they needed to down the stretch. There were no heroes from the string tonight, but perhaps the most glaring instance of poor free throw shooting came with Doncic at the line. With their 10-point lead shaved to six with a minute to play, Luka missed two free throws which immediately turned into a DeJounte Murray three pointer, brining the score to 102-99; a single possession game.

Dallas had the wherewithal to pull out the 104-99 win, but those Luka misses were the cherry on top of an abysmal team performance from the free throw line. 30.8% from the stripe is a great way to lose close games the team should be winning.
