Kyrie Irving on his buzzer-beating left-handed floater during the Mavericks’ victory over the Nuggets: “It felt nice. We practice on this play a lot during shootaround, so it felt nice to put it into action. I had faith in my teammates out there and was fortunate enough to hit a left-hand floater. I looked at it after the game and realized I was fairly far out. Shots that I work on, being ambidextrous, and simply believing the skills that I work on.”

> Irving finished with 24 points (9-23 FG, 4-11 3FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, nine assists, three steals, and one block against the Nuggets.
