The Atlanta Hawks battled back and forth with the Dallas Mavericks last night and had the lead with 1:46 to go, but could not finish the job. It was the second

Dallas and Atlanta meet in non-conference action. Wednesday's matchup is the first this season between the two squads.

Davis, who played just his sixth game with Dallas after missing time due to an adductor injury, finished with 34 points, 15 rebounds, two assists, one steal and five blocks in the contest. In doing so, he became the first player in Mavericks history to record this stat line in a game.
