The Dallas Mavericks overcame a sluggish start, defeating the winless Utah Jazz 110-102 at home, despite Luka Doncic's off night. Coach Jason Kidd praised the bench contributions from Dereck Lively II and Spencer Dinwiddie, who helped ignite the team's scoring in the second half.

Dinwiddie, who was scoreless at halftime, exploded for 11 points in the third quarter, while Lively finished with 14 points. The Mavericks now look ahead to a challenging matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
