Mavericks 103, Warriors 99: Dirk Nowitzki scored 22 points to lead six Dallas players in double figures as the Mavericks held off visiting Golden State.

The Mavericks led by eight in the first quarter and stretched it as wide as 17 in the second before settling for a 55-46 halftime lead. Curry's 3-pointer narrowed the gap to 59-55 with just over eight minutes left in the third, but the Warriors couldn't get any closer.
Golden State was within 75-71 with a minute left in the period, but Dallas reeled off seven straight points to close the quarter. The Warriors stormed back once more, trimming a 99-82 deficit to four with a 13-0 spurt and again pulling within four with 1:14 left, but Nowitzki knocked down a jumper to stem the momentum.
