They were able to take advantage of the ensuing games, ending the first three quarters with a 24-point lead over their opponents.

On the Lone Rangers side of this game, Doncic played 38 minutes, shooting 17 of 35 shots, 7 of 14 three-pointers, and got 49 points, 15 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 block, which is the brightest star of the game!
Counting this game, Doncic has scored 45+ points three times in his last four games, and 51 and 45 points in his previous two games against the Clippers! He's also one of only two players this season to score 45+ points three times, the other being Steven Curry!
In February, Doncic played too perfectly, he appeared in 8 games for the Lone Rangers in February, averaging 36.3 points, 10.6 rebounds and 9.4 assists per game, and the 36+ quasi-triple-double data was really terrible.
