DENVER — After a deflating 115-113 loss to the Utah Jazz, which extended their losing streak to four games, the Dallas Mavericks knew they had to get back on track. Each defeat in that stretch had been decided by a single possession, magnifying issues with late-game execution, communication, and lapses. But instead of letting frustration fester, the Mavericks turned the moment into a catalyst for change.

What followed was a candid team meeting that players have credited with sparking their current four-game win streak, including a gritty 123-120 victory over the Denver Nuggets in the NBA Cup group stage on Friday. Dallas has won four consecutive games since, even despite playing two games without Luka Dončić
