DALLAS (AP) \u2014 Darius Garland<\/a> scored a season-high 41 points, Kawhi Leonard<\/a> added 34 with a tying bucket late in regulation and the Los Angeles Clippers<\/a> beat Dallas 138-131 in overtime on Saturday night, extending the Mavericks\u2019 longest home losing streak in 32 years to 11 games.<\/p>\n

Derrick Jones Jr.<\/a> scored 15 points with a pair of 3-pointers in the extra period, and Garland had 11 assists as the Clippers ended a four-game skid that followed a four-game winning streak. <\/p>\n

Los Angeles pulled even with Portland for eighth in the Western Conference. Both teams are safely in the mix for the play-in tournament.<\/p>\n

Naji Marshall<\/a> scored 28 points for the Mavericks, who are on their longest skid at the 25-year old American Airlines Center. Dallas had home losing streaks of 19 and 12 games during the 1993-94 season at since-demolished Reunion Arena.<\/p>\n

Marshall\u2019s steal and assist for P.J. Washington\u2019s dunk put Dallas ahead 122-120, but Leonard scored after a timeout to get the Clippers even with 19 seconds to go.<\/p>\n

Cooper Flagg<\/a>, who scored 18 points, missed a jumper in the final seconds, and Washington was just late when he swished a jumper after grabbing an offensive rebound. Washington scored 21 points.<\/p>\n

Garland also had a season high with eight 3-pointers, the last following one from Jones that put Los Angeles ahead for good at 125-124 in overtime. A bucket from Leonard and another 3 from Jones put the Clippers up by nine.<\/p>\n

Leonard, who has alternated between playing and sitting over the past four games while nursing a sprained left ankle, played 36 minutes, including all of overtime. <\/p>\n

Flagg, the rookie No. 1 pick, had nine rebounds and seven assists while matching his season high with four blocked shots.<\/p>\n
