PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) --- Marvin Bagley III scored 26 points off the bench and
Cooper Flagg had 24 to lead the Dallas Mavericks past the Portland Trail
Blazers 100-93 on Friday night, snapping a five-game skid.
Naji Marshall had 19 points and five steals for the Mavericks, who had dropped
seven of their previous nine games on the road and bounced back from a 142-135
loss at Denver on Wednesday night. Bagley had nine rebounds and Flagg four
steals for Dallas.
Jrue Holiday scored 23 points and Deni Avdija had 20 points and nine rebounds
for the Trail Blazers, who had their two-game winning streak stopped and fell
below .500 at 37-38. Portland, which has clinched a playoff spot and is
currently in ninth place in the Western Conference, had won five of its
previous six to get back to .500 for the first time in over two months.
Donovan Clingan had 17 rebounds and six points for the Trail Blazers.
The game was tied at 92 with 2:25 remaining after Holiday made a 3-pointer, but
the Mavericks sealed the victory with an 8-1 run to end it. Bagley had a layup
and a dunk to start the run and Marshall and Brandon Williams combined to make
four free throws.
