The Clippers led 63-57 after a tight first half, but the Mavericks made an 8-0 run midway through the third quarter to take an 83-78 lead, their largest advantage of the game. But the Clippers closed out the quarter on a 13-5 run with Harrell and Williams scoring 10 of Los Angeles' points.

The duo also led the way in the fourth quarter, with Harrell tying his career high on a free throw with 4:45 remaining and setting a new benchmark on a dunk with 2:03 remaining. Williams finished with 10 assists.

Doncic played 33 minutes for the Mavericks after missing the previous two games with an ankle injury. Dwight Powell had 24 points while Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 20 for the Mavericks, who retooled the roster by trading Harrison Barnes, DeAndre Jordan, Dennis Smith Jr. and Wesley Matthews at the deadline.

Patrick Beverley scored 17 points for the Clippers, while JaMychal Green had 11. Green came over to the Clippers from Memphis in a trade-deadline deal earlier this month.

Clippers head coach Doc Rivers took the public address microphone in the closing minute and led a cheer in honor of Nowitzki, who is in his 21st season.
