The Mavericks made a decision to not even try to make the play-in tournament as they rest five key players during the game against the Bulls.

Luka Doncic was in the lineup but only for 13 minutes before young players were put on the floor and lost to Chicago.

The NBA opened an investigation about the matter. However, according to Marc Stein, the Mavs consulted league office before deciding to tank the game.
