Luka Doncic had 32 points, nine rebounds and seven assists, Daniel Gafford scored a season-high 18 points, and the Dallas Mavericks beat the Orlando Magic 108-85.

Luka Doncic delivered 32 points, nine rebounds and seven assists in a "real fun" performance as the Dallas Mavericks cruised to a 108-85 victory over the Orlando Magic on Sunday. Doncic scored 14 points in the first quarter to help the Mavericks to a 30-22 lead and they were 65-40 ahead at the break.

Orlando Magic coach Jamahl Mosley didn’t want to say or do anything to antagonize Luka Doncic. “I’m not trying to wake him up,” Mosely said during his pregame news conference. But Doncic didn’t need any additional motivation after a handful of sluggish first-half scoring performances through the first five games of the season.

The Dallas Mavericks started the first night of a back-to-back at home against the short-handed Orlando Magic, who were playing without their rising star Paolo Banchero. With him out of the lineup, Dallas didn't have many excuses to drop this game and needed a win following their disappointing loss to the Houston Rockets on Halloween night.
