Oklahoma City -

Dirk Nowitzki scored half of his game-high 34 points in the fourth quarter as the Dallas Mavericks rallied from down 11 points to win, 111-103, ending Oklahoma City's five-game winning streak Wednesday night at the Ford Center.

Oklahoma City (10-5) led 75-64 after Russell Westbrook's rebound and putback with 4:04 remaining in the third quarter.

Dallas (10-4) scored seven straight points to cut the lead to four, but still trailed 90-83 with seven and a half minutes remaining. That's when Nowitzki went off, hitting back-to-back three-pointers, including the second which he was fouled on.

He completed the four-point play to knot the score at 90-90 and thirty seconds later, Jason Terry nailed a trey to give Dallas the lead for good.

The Dallas run was a 24-to-3 streak that pushed the Mavericks lead to 107-93 with just under two minutes remaining.

Kevin Durant led Oklahoma City with 32 points and eleven rebounds. Jeff Green added 17 while Westbrook scored 13 and had ten assists and Serge Ibaka had 12 points.

Joining Nowitzki in double digits was Tyson Chandler, who had a monster night with 17 points and 18 rebounds. Caron Butler had 15 points, Shawn Marion had 12 and Terry had ten.

Oklahoma City gets Thanksgiving Day off before returning to the road for their next game Friday night at Indiana.
