SUNDAY, DECEMBER 19, 2010 PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL


MAVERICKS106,SUNS91 Late Friday Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry


scored 18 points apiece, and surging Dallas took advantage of an injury to Steve Nash to post its 14th victory in 15 games. The Suns played without their star


point guard for the final three quarters after Nash left because of what the team called a “stinger.” With 7:17 left in the first quarter,


Nash andMavericksCTyson Chandler collided while going for a loose ball. Nash’s neck appeared to drive into Chandler’s hip, and Nash was down for several minutes before walking slowly to the bench.
