GAME RECAP
MVP
Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas
Maybe he is an All-Star after all. At least he looked like one on Friday, when he scored a season-high 33 points.
BY THE NUMBERS
28 Wolves' season-high turnovers. Their previous high was 26 at Milwaukee in the season's second game.
16 Seasons since the Wolves last swept Dallas in a season series. That was 1995-96. The opportunity passed them by on Friday in their third and final meeting this season.
8-1 Dallas' record when scoring 100 points or more.
JERRY ZGODA
