 DALLAS (AP) - Dirk Nowitzki scored 26 points in 28 minutes, and Josh Howard added 24 points as the Dallas Mavericks beat Charlotte 118-93 on Wednesday night, snapping the Bobcats' franchise-record five-game winning streak.
The Bobcats have never beaten the Mavericks — or even scored 100 points against them — in the eight-game series.
Howard had one of his best games since bruising his lower back a month ago, hitting nine of 15 shots with seven rebounds and six assists. He had 20 points by halftime after his buzzer-beating 3-pointer on a fastbreak pass from Jason Terry that gave the Mavericks a 67-45 lead.
