What happened

Dallas lost 115-110 to Sacramento while playing without Kyrie Irving, and the Mavericks shot 7 of 33 from three as the Kings hit 19 of 43.

Cooper Flagg struggled with 3-for-19 shooting and six turnovers, while Daniel Gafford scored 20 and Morez Johnson Jr. added a career-high 13 points.

LINEUP CONTEXT

Irving’s absence and the missed perimeter shots could keep Dallas leaning on interior scoring, while the center rotation stays important if injuries linger.
