DALLAS (AP) — Luka Doncic had 30 points and 14 assists with former teammate Dirk Nowitzki watching as a retiree for the first time, and the Dallas Mavericks routed the Cavaliers 143-101.
Nowitzki stayed away for the first eight Dallas home games after setting an NBA record of 21 seasons with the same franchise.
It was the big German’s first live look at the new European pairing of Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis.
