Jay Wei shot 7-of-12 from the field and 1-of-2 from three-point range to finish with 16 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 block.

Holmgren was deflated again on the inside this game, and his confrontation was not good, so he suffered losses under the basket and protected rebounds, but his defense did a good job, shooting 4 of 8 from the field, 0 of 2 from three-point range, and got 13 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 4 blocks. Giddey was abandoned again in this game, scoring 9 points on 4-of-8 shooting, but after only 13 minutes of play, Giddey began to be abandoned in the last game, and he was abandoned because he couldn't fight well, and his slow defense was often targeted by opponents.

In this game, the Thunder substitute Isaiah Joe scored 13 points and 2 assists in the whole game, but Hayward still scored 0 points in the whole game, and has played 7 games in the playoffs so far, Hayward has a total of 0 points, and the 31.5 million forward is estimated to be enough to win a contract of 20 million in the offseason. The Thunder were also played by the Mavericks through these three games, they were not good inside, and the team did not have a qualified forward, so the Thunder played very tired.

Washington erupted again

In this game, the Thunder continued the strategy of the past few games, they still chose to pinch Doncic, after all, Doncic's singles are too strong, but Doncic is not as stubborn as in the past few games, that is, he is holding the ball alone, after trying, he feels bad, he reduced his ball holding, and handed over the ball to Irving, which is also a mature performance, he got 22 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal on 7-of-17 shooting in this game.

Irving shot 10 of 17 from the field, 2 of 6 three-pointers got 22 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists and 1 steal, and had to admire the athleticism of the Thunder, Irving was difficult to play an efficient offense in the face of their defense, but Irving connected the team very well, and the whole team scored more than 8 points under his leadership: Gafford scored 8 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, Hardaway got 8 points and 2 rebounds, and Lively had 12 points and 8 rebounds.

In addition, Washington, who played well in the last game, continued his previous feeling in this game, because the opponent did not have a qualified forward, Washington's advantage was shown, he shot 11 of 23 from the field, and 5 of 12 from three-point range with 27 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and scored 29 points and 11 rebounds in the last game, and cut 56 points and 16 boards in the past two occasions, directly becoming the three masters of the Mavericks, which is very good.
