The Dallas Mavericks have a 2-0 lead in the Western Conference finals, and they made it hurt for the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Behind a 32-point triple-double and game-winner from Luka Dončić, the Mavericks won 109-108 in a Game 2 that went down to the wire. Game 3 is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET on Sunday in Dallas (TNT).

Down 108-106 with four seconds remaining, Dončić made a stepback 3-pointer to take the air out of the Target Center.

The Timberwolves got the ball in the hands of their hottest shooter of the night, Naz Reid, but his would-be game-winner clanked out.
