Jason Terry scored a season-high 30 points, leading the Dallas Mavericks to their seventh straight win, a 101-93 victory over the host Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night.
Jason Kidd recorded a triple-double with 13 points, 10 rebounds and 13 assists and Dirk Nowitzki scored 22 points for the Mavericks (44-16), who have won 17 of 18.
Jodie Meeks scored 16 points, Andre Iguodala added 15 points and Jrue Holiday 14 for the 76ers (30-30), who moved over the .500 mark for the first time this season with Sunday's win over Cleveland but had their season-high four-game winning streak snapped.
Meeks' 3-pointer with 1:41 to play cut the deficit to 92-91, but the Mavericks took charge. Nowitzki's fadeaway 10-footer and Terry's breakaway dunk gave Dallas a five-point lead with 52 seconds remaining.
Kidd had no turnovers and three steals in 36 minutes.
Dallas center Tyson Chandler left the game late in the second quarter with a sprained right ankle and didn't return.
The game featured a matchup of the NBA Coaches of the Month for February announced earlier Tuesday. Philadelphia's Doug Collins was named top coach in the East while Rick Carlisle was top coach in the West.
