Mavericks' Spencer Dinwiddie: Records double-double
Spencer Dinwiddie amassed 14 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 assists, four rebounds and two steals across 33 minutes during Wednesday's 120-118 victory over the Hawks.Dinwiddie recorded his fifth double-double of the season Wednesday. The 31-year-old journeyman entered the starting lineup March 19 for the shorthanded Dallas Mavericks, who are also without the services of two-man Brandon Williams because he's made 50 NBA appearances already this season. In his eight consecutive starts, Dinwiddie has averaged 15.4 points, 8.9 assists and 4.0 rebounds on 48.3 percent shooting. Dallas is getting healthier and pushing for a spot in the Play-In Tournament, but with Dante Exum (hand) and Kyrie Irving (knee) out for the season, Dinwiddie should maintain a sizable role.

Additionally, the veteran playmaker led the club in assists, dishing out six dimes for the third time across the Dallas Mavericks' last five matchups. The 31-year-old guard has played at least 29 minutes in each of the club's last four outings due to Kyrie Irving (knee) being sidelined, and that trend will likely continue, especially if Jaden Hardy (ankle) and Brandon Williams (hamstring) miss additional time.

Mavericks' Spencer Dinwiddie: Delivers little in starting role

Brandon Williams emerged as the most influential point guard, so it's easy to say that identifying the best options for the short-handed Dallas Mavericks is a tenuous task.
