Irving’s whatever-it-takes mentality has trickled down to the rest of the team, winners of four of its last five games.

Kyrie Irving scored 42 points and took a charge in the closing seconds while Klay Thompson added 17 against his former team as the undersized Dallas Mavericks beat the Golden State Warriors 111-107.

Kyrie Irving carried the Mavs, finishing with 42 points on 15/25 FG shooting and 7/10 from three. Klay Thompson (17 points, 7 rebounds, 5/14 3PT), Max Christie (17 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists), Brandon Williams (12 points, 4/6 shooting), and Naji Marshall (10 points) were also in double figures.
