Oklahoma City, January 1

Chris Paul scored 17 points, including 13 in the final 4:31, to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder to a come-from-behind 106-101 home win over the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday night.

With less than three minutes remaining, the Thunder trailed by seven. But then Oklahoma City reeled off a 14-2 run — fueled in large part by Paul — to end the game. The win was the third in a row and seventh in the last eight games for the Thunder.

Two players who were questionable going into the day due to ankle injuries, Danilo Gallinari and Dennis Schroder, led the Thunder with 20 points each.

Dallas’ Luka Doncic scored 35 points to lead all scorers but struggled from behind the arc, going just 3 of 16 on 3-point attempts. — Reuters

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
