Thompson answered with his sixth 3-pointer to put Dallas back in front, 104-103. Flagg hit six free throws in the final 1:20 to help the Mavericks hold on.
Flagg made 10 baskets and scored 21 points by halftime. His turnaround fadeaway jumper punctuated a 15-2 run that gave Dallas a 33-28 lead early in the second quarter.
