Thunder Dominate Mavericks in NBA Playoffs as Doncic Struggles with Injury

Oklahoma City takes a commanding lead in the series, capitalizing on Luka Doncic's knee issues and a strong team performance.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leads Thunder with 29 points, showcasing a balanced attack in their 117-95 victory.
Luka Doncic, hampered by a knee injury, scores only 19 points on 6-of-19 shooting, reflecting his struggle throughout the game.
Oklahoma City's defense, particularly Lu Dort's effort, crucial in limiting Doncic's effectiveness.
Kyrie Irving steps up with 20 points, but Mavericks' efforts fall short against Thunder's robust defense and fast-paced offense.
The series outlook appears challenging for Dallas as they aim to regroup and counter Thunder's momentum in upcoming games.
