PHOENIX, Feb. 15 (UPI) -- Amare Stoudemire, Leandro Barbosa and Steve Nash combined for 76 points Thursday in lifting the Phoenix Coyotes to a 109-97 victory over Dallas.
The Suns went on a late 12-2 run to pull away for their third victory in four games. Dallas has dropped three out of four.
Both Stoudemire and Barbosa scored 26 points and Nash had 13 assists to go with his 24 points. The Suns made 58 percent of their shots from the field and hit 22 of 26 free throw attempts.
The Mavericks got 36 points from Dirk Nowitzki and 29 from Jason Terry.
Devean George -- who invoked the no-trade clause in his Dallas contract Wednesday to negate a trade that would have brought New Jersey's Jason Kidd to the Mavericks -- started Thursday and scored seven points.
