Wednesday 's game was a shockingly strong performance from the Mavericks , as the 104 points they scored against the Clippers was the first time they scored over 100 points since Nov. 9 against the Lakers , which also happened to be the last time they won a game . In their six games prior to Wednesday , Dallas was averaging a lowly 82 points per game , a stretch highlighted by a 64 - point performance against the Grizzlies . There were a lot of signs as to why the Mavericks managed to have an effective scoring night Wednesday , including shooting a high mark from behind the arc ( 11 - of - 24 ) , capitalizing on their trips to the free throw line ( 17 - of - 18 ) and most importantly , rebounding . The Mavericks actually out - rebounded the Clippers 44 to 43 and managed to grab 10 offensive rebounds against a strong rebounding team in Los Angeles , giving them multiple possessions and opportunities for second - chance points . The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Dallas Mavericks 124 - 104 at American Airlines Center on Wednesday . After falling behind early to the Mavericks ( 2 - 11 ) , the Clippers ( 13 - 2 ) quickly kicked it into high gear as they maintained their best record in the NBA . Following a dominate second - quarter performance , Los Angeles , and their 23 - point lead heading into halftime , proved to be too much for Dallas . The Clippers starters all played 26 minutes or less after resting in the fourth quarter , so it was Austin Rivers off the bench who led the team in scoring , as he posted an efficient 22 points in 26 minutes . Chris Paul led the starters with 18 points and four assists , while DeAndre Jordan was n't far behind , recording 16 points and a team - high eight rebounds . For the Mavericks , it was the return of star power forward Dirk Nowitzki to the starting lineup after the German missed the last eight games due to an Achilles tendon injury . Prior to the game , head coach Rick Carlisle said Nowitzki would be on a strict minutes restriction , but he still managed to play 20 minutes , scoring 10 points and grabbing six rebounds in that time . Harrison Barnes led the way for the Mavericks as he returned to his regular spot as the team 's starting small forward , scoring 22 points on 10 - of - 19 shooting in 30 minutes . Dallas , however , lost their seventh straight game as they continue to slide in this young season . Up next , the Clippers will look to stay hot on the road when they take on the Pistons on Friday , while the Mavericks will look to end their losing streak against the Cavaliers in Cleveland .
