P.J. Washington scored 25 points, making all four of his 3-point attempts in the fourth quarter, and Kyrie Irving added 25 points and six assists as the Dallas Mavericks outlasted the New Orleans Pelicans 137-136 on Wednesday night.

The Dallas Mavericks tipped off a five-game road trip with a 137-136 win over the New Orleans Pelicans, avenging their loss in this building a few weeks ago. Four players from each team scored at least 20 points, and both teams shot above 45% from three, but the Mavericks made five more three-pointers, one of the bigger differences from the game.

Washington grew up in the Dallas area. Following a trade from Charlotte, he has shown himself to be a glue guy for the Mavericks.
