Luka Doncic posted a triple-double and PJ Washington drilled the deciding free-throws.

LUKA DONCIC posted a triple-double and PJ Washington drilled the deciding free-throws as the Dallas Mavericks erased a 17-point deficit to beat Oklahoma City 117-116 to reach the NBA Western Conference finals on Saturday.

“Being down 17 in a closeout game isn’t a position you want to be in,” said Dallas star Kyrie Irving. “We had to respond the way we’ve responded all season, just playing hardnosed basketball on the defensive end, getting out in transition and just trusting that our pace would get us back in the game.Doncic scored 29 points with 10 rebounds and 10 assists. Irving and Derrick Jones Jr. scored 22 points apiece and Dereck Lively added 12 off the bench for the Mavs.

“If I had the moment back I wouldn’t have fouled him, let him make or miss the shot,” Gilgeous-Alexander said. “Basketball — you win some, you lose some. You make mistakes.”
