Dallas Mavericks point guard showered LaMelo Ball with praise after the Charlotte Hornets beat the Mavericks 110-105.

But the Hornets would battle back to take the lead for good on Smith’s corner 3 with 4:16 left. Ball, who had 20 points on five 3s in the first half, had a chance to put the game away with 13 seconds left but missed the tail end of a one-and-one.
