Luka Dončić and the Dallas Mavericks put an end to their four-game losing streak by defeating the San Antonio Spurs, who were without star player Victor Wembanyama, by a score of 110-93 on Saturday.

In a performance that delighted fans, Dončić contributed significantly with 16 points, six rebounds, and six assists. Klay Thompson added nine points, while Kyrie Irving led the team with 22 points and six assists. On the opposing side, Zach Collins rose to the occasion in Wembanyama's absence, registering 20 points and six rebounds. This match marked the second meeting between these teams this season; the Mavericks previously defeated the Spurs 120-109 on opening night, during which Dončić recorded 20 points and eight assists.

As the Mavericks work to integrate their new players into the team dynamic, social media buzzed with praise from fans celebrating the much-needed victory. The win helped Dallas regain some momentum as they look ahead to a challenging match against the Oklahoma City Thunder the following day, marking the second leg of a back-to-back series.
