DeRozan scored a season-high 42 points for the Kings (27-26), including the go-ahead basket on a baseline floater with 2.1 seconds to play in overtime. The six-time All-Star went 15 of 22 from the field, 4 of 6 from 3-point range and 8 of 8 at the free-throw line to post his first 40-point game in a Kings uniform.

With 9.8 seconds left and the Mavericks trailing 127–125, Dallas guard Klay Thompson turned back the clock and knocked down a three-pointer that put his team ahead. It was a wild enough shot on its own, but Kings forward DeMar DeRozan's ensuing bucket was something else entirely.
