Numbers Game: Mavericks 103 Jazz 97

Saturday night’s Maverick game with the Utah Jazz – the second in eight days – was definitely an edge-of-your-seat type of game. And who would have guessed that after the Mavericks took a 29-4 lead in the first quarter. Here are some of the amazing numbers from the Mavericks' performance on the annual Seats for Soldiers night at American Airlines Center.
  • 12 points from Jason Terry in the final 12 minutes (including the dagger 3 with 7.9 seconds left). He had two points prior to the fourth quarter.
  • 31 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists from Dirk Nowitzki
  • Seven 3’s in the first quarter (3 for Dirk, 2 for DeShawn Stevenson, 2 for Caron Butler) saw the Mavericks to their 25-point lead.
  • Stevenson went 5 for 7 on 3’s for the game, giving him 53.6 percent of 3’s made, a mark that ties him for first in the NBA with Mike Bibby.
  • Stevenson tied his season high with 17 points on the night
  • The Mavs made half their 3’s for the game in the first quarter.
  • Caron Butler also went 4 of 5 on 3’s with 16 points.

The Bucks are next up on Monday.
