The Dallas Mavericks’ star Luka Doncic delivered a mesmerizing no-look pass to Josh Green during Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. The pass quickly set him up perfectly for a three-pointer.
Green capitalized on the opportunity and sank the shot, adding three crucial points to the Mavericks’ score. It narrowed the gap to 70–75.
Despite Minnesota’s efforts, they struggled to find their offensive rhythm, with Naz Reid being their primary source of scoring. Nevertheless, with just three seconds remaining on the clock and the ball in Dallas’ possession, the Timberwolves had a chance to snatch the win. Unfortunately for them, Reid’s three-point attempt fell short, as the Mavericks finally sealed the comeback victory.
The night’s hero was undoubtedly Luka Doncic, who continued to dazzle with his exceptional performance. With the game on the line, Doncic delivered yet again, sinking a game-winning three-pointer with three seconds left on the clock. It secured a thrilling 109–108 win for the Mavericks.
Kyrie Irving also played a crucial role in the victory, particularly with his sharpshooting from beyond the arc. Irving, who had struggled with his three-point shot earlier in the series, found his rhythm in the fourth quarter. He knocked down four crucial threes to propel the Mavericks to victory.
On the Timberwolves’ side, Naz Reid stood out with a team-leading 23 points on an efficient 8-of-13 shooting. Rudy Gobert, the Defensive Player of the Year, secured 10 rebounds during the game, consisting of 5 defensive rebounds and 5 offensive rebounds.
