Mahomes is from Texas and has been seen at several Mavs games over the years.
The Mavs are the fifth seed in the Western Conference with a 50-32 record.
They missed the NBA playoffs in 2023, but reached the Western Conference Finals in 2022.
Right now, the Mavs have one of the most talented duos in the league with Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic.
However, key role player P.J. Washington led the team with 27 points, six rebounds and two assists while shooting 11/23 from the field and 5/12 from the three-point range in 40 minutes of playing time.
Game 4 of the series will be on Monday evening (also in Dallas).
Whoever wins the series will advance to the Western Conference Finals and face off against either the Denver Nuggets or the Minnesota Timberwolves.
