After a strong showing against the Magic, the Dallas Mavericks stumbled in a tough matchup with the Pacers, where Bennedict Mathurin played a key role and exchanged words with Luka Doncic at the end of the game in the NBA.

Doncic awoke from his offensive slumber by scoring 25 of his game-high 32 points in the first half, which helped the Mavericks (4-2) cruise to a 108-85 win Sunday over the Magic (3-4), who played without Paolo Banchero.

Luka Doncic had 32 points, nine rebounds and seven assists, Daniel Gafford scored a season-high 18 points, and the Dallas Mavericks beat the Orlando Magic 108-85.
