Dirk Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks didn’t have much to play for after officially wrapping up the seventh seed in the Western Conference playoffs before halftime against Phoenix.
They knocked the Suns out of postseason contention anyway.
Nowitzki scored 19 points, including the go-ahead basket and a key 3-pointer in the fourth quarter, and the Mavericks kept the Suns home from the playoffs for the fifth straight season with a 107-104 victory Wednesday night.
The Suns can finish no better than a tie with New Orleans and Oklahoma City for the final spot in the Western Conference. The Pelicans would win that tiebreaker because of a better conference record.
