WASHINGTON (AP) — Naji Marshall scored a season-high 30 points, P.J. Washington Jr. had eight key points in the final five minutes and the Dallas Mavericks beat the Washington Wizards 111-105 on Saturday night.
The Mavericks (3-7) snapped a four-game losing streak and won for the first time this season on the road.
Washington lost its eighth straight and fell to 1-9. CJ McCollum scored 25 points, but had just two after halftime. Cam Whitmore had a season-high 19 points.
The Wizards’ only win of the season came on Oct. 24 when they beat Dallas 117-107. Washington is 0-5 at home.
Washington, who had 15 points, hit two free throws to give Dallas a 102-101 lead with 4:36 to play. He added two baskets and two free throws to seal the win.
Dallas played without Anthony Davis, who missed his fifth straight game with a strained left calf, and Klay Thompson, who was ill. The Mavericks scored 19 straight points, holding Washington scoreless for more than five minutes to take a 28-16 lead with 2:11 remaining in the first quarter.
The Wizards chipped into the Mavericks’ lead, and Alex Sarr’s follow shot with 5:07 remaining in the third gave them a 72-71 lead, their first since early in the first quarter.
Whitmore scored 11 points in the third, and Washington led 86-82 after three.
