Daniel Gafford appears to be walking fine and will stay in the game. Mavericks giving Thunder all they could want and more from a Luka-less team. – 11:33 PM

Along w/ his historic finishing, Daniel Gafford had 7 blocks last night (season high) & the Mavs had 13 total (also season high). Fun note – Mavs are 12-5 in the last 17 games (9-5 post-trades). Dallas’ paint defense is better – opps are 53.9% on paint FGs in those 17. By… – 11:13 AM
