NBA Preview Dallas Mavericks 11/16/12
DALLAS (AP) Chris Kaman scored 23 points and had eight rebounds in only his second start for the Dallas Mavericks, who held on for a
107-101 victory over the winless Washington Wizards on Wednesday night. O.J. Mayo had 25 points as the Mavericks snapped a three-game
losing streak since Kaman's only other start.
Washington (0-7) had trailed by as many as 22 points before a
15-0 run in the fourth quarter. Cartier Martin capped that spurt with
consecutive 3-pointers, swishing the second from the wing right in front of the Mavs bench and coach Rick Carlisle to get within 88-85. Kaman had a short hook on the Mavs next possession.
Martin made another 3 in the closing seconds, but Kaman had
another strong inside move and made the free throw.
