They were beaten 121-114 in Game 1 before being blown out 129-109 in Game 2 in Phoenix.

Their return home brought about a turnaround in fortunes though, as the Mavs went 2/2 at the American Airlines series.

Dallas halted their losing ways with a 103-94 victory in Game 3, before downing Phoenix 111-101 in Game 4 at the weekend.

Luka Doncic once again played a starring role in the Game 4 win as he contributed 26 points, 11 assists and seven rebounds.

Dorian Finney-Smith had 24 points and eight rebounds, while Jalen Brunson put up 18 points.

Maxi Kleber, Spencer Dinwiddie and Davis Bertans combined for 33 points, 12 rebounds and four assists off the bench.

They took a 2-0 series lead against Dallas with back-to-back home wins, beating the Mavericks 121-114 and 129-109.

However, their win streak was halted by a 103-94 defeat in Dallas in Game 3.
