Jerry Stackhouse regained his scoring touch at the right time for the Mavericks, helping them finally stave off a comeback attempt by the Heat.

Stackhouse -- slowly working his way back after spraining his left ankle last month -- scored 16 of his 23 points in the final quarter as the Mavericks held on to beat Miami 99-93 on Sunday in the first matchup between the teams since last season's NBA finals.
