The entire Maverick team in this game
free throw percentage
The team suffered a miserable slump, hitting just 12 of 23 free throw attempts for a 52 percent free throw percentage. In response, the Mavericks' leader player, Luca
Doncic (name)
Said after the game that the team had to step up its free throw shooting and couldn't accept such a low percentage.
Doncic had a great game, contributing a triple-double with 18 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists, but also had seven turnovers. However, the key thing was that in the final moments of the game, he hit only one of his two free throws, which led to the Mavericks missing the chance to equalize the score and change the course of the game.
The win meant a lot to the Thunder as they dragged the series into a battle for the top spot. For the Mavericks, they need to adjust their free throw shooting in the next game to try to turn things around and regain the lead.
