MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Luka Doncic hit a leaning, lunging 3-pointer as time expired to give the Dallas Mavericks a 114-113 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies in a battle of teams jockeying for postseason positioning. Doncic ended the night with 29 points and Kristaps Porzingis added 21. Grayson Allen led the Grizzlies with 23 but the guard who is a 90.6% free throw shooter missed a pair of free throws with 2.2 seconds left to set the stage for Doncic’s winning 3.
