Risacher's Defense Stuns OKC As Mavs Hand Thunder First Loss

Zaccharie Risacher put up 13 points on 5-of-6 shooting with six rebounds and a plus-16 in 29 minutes as Dallas blew out previously unbeaten Oklahoma City by 24. The real story was his work on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who went 2-for-10 after halftime and sat the entire fourth quarter. Cooper Flagg said the Mavs are "15 to 20 points better with him just doing the little things."
