Meanwhile , J.J. Barea got the start in place of Raymond Felton , whose right groin strain prevented him from taking the court . It turned out to be a blessing in disguise for Dallas , which got the former 's second - highest scoring total of the season in return . His performance helped offset a remarkable night from the Pistons ' starting five , including a season - high scoring output from Marcus Morris . Barea totaled 29 points , which he complemented with three rebounds and three assists . Dirk Nowitzki was next , contributing 19 points , five rebounds , three assists and a steal . Wesley Matthews pitched in with 17 points , six rebounds , an assist and a steal . Devin Harris contributed 13 points , two rebounds and three assists while pacing the bench . The Mavericks are currently in third place in the Western Conference 's Southwest Division , and are slotted in the seventh seed as well .

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope poured in 15 points , and added two rebounds and an assist . Tobias Harris was right behind with 14 points , five rebounds and two blocks . Andre Drummond contributed one of his trademark double - doubles , registering 12 points , 17 boards , an assist and a steal . Reggie Jackson filled out the stat sheet with 11 points , 10 assists , five rebounds and two steals . The only blemish on an otherwise stellar performance was his game - high six turnovers .
