The Dallas Mavericks secured a thrilling 143-133 victory over the Golden State Warriors in San Francisco, avenging their loss to Stephen Curry’s team last month. This win wasn’t just about the scoreline; it also came with a little extra spice.
During the Mavericks’ previous loss, Curry had added insult to injury by hitting his iconic “Night Night” celebration after the game. On Sunday, the tables turned as the Mavericks claimed their revenge, and PJ Washington took the opportunity to mock Curry with the same celebration.
