Luka Doncic hit a deep, step-back 3-pointer at the buzzer to cap a triple-double on a sprained ankle as the Dallas Mavericks beat the Los Angeles Clippers 135-133 in overtime to even the playoff series at two games apiece.

Doncic had 43 points, 17 rebounds and 13 assists for his second straight triple-double.

Marcus Morris hit a 3-pointer with 9 seconds remaining in overtime to give the Clippers the lead.

It simply set the stage for Doncic’s winner over Reggie Jackson.

The Mavericks had their biggest playoff comeback, overcoming a 21-point, second-quarter deficit. They had a 16-0 run in the third to take the lead -- and led by 12 points in the fourth before the Clippers rallied.
