Draymond Green's defensive prowess was on full display with a critical block on Gafford and a steal in the closing moments of the game, contributing to his overall performance of 11 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals. Curry contributed with 13 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists. The Warriors' bench also outperformed the Mavericks', scoring 39 points to their 13.

Warriors begin huge week with home win over the Mavericks. Fifth straight. They got a ton from Andrew Wiggins (23 points, guarded Luka) and Chris Paul (14 points, +8, guided game without Curry). Draymond Green's defense large down the stretch.
5 game winning streak for the Warriors!!!
Draymond with the defensive play of the game, blocking Gafford, then taking the ball from Kyrie on the rebound. Unreal.
