Dallas Mavericks

The Dallas Mavericks have been in decent form as they’ve won five of their first nine games overall, but they will be eager to bounce back in this one after falling just short to the Suns in a 114-113 loss on Friday. Luka Doncic led the team with 30 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists, Kyrie Irving added 29 points with seven rebounds and six assists while Naji Marshall chipped in with 18 points. As a team, the Mavericks shot 51 percent from the field and 11 of 33 from the 3-point line as they clawed their way back from an early 14-point deficit, only to lose at the buzzer with the Suns’ Jusuf Nurkic knocking down the go-ahead free throw with 0.1 seconds remaining on the clock.

Denver Nuggets

Meanwhile, the Denver Nuggets have been in great shape as they’ve won six of their last seven games and they will be aiming to build on their current four-game win streak after routing the Heat in a 135-122 home win on Friday. Nikola Jokic led the team with a triple-double of 30 points with 11 rebounds and 14 assists on 11 of 13 shooting, Jamal Murray added 28 points with six assists while Michael Porter Jr and Christian Braun scored 21 points apiece. As a team, the Nuggets shot a sizzling 61 percent from the field and 18 of 35 from the 3-point line as they caught fire with 40 points in the first quarter and just never took their foot off the gas to win easily.

Why the Denver Nuggets will win

  • The Nuggets have won each of their last nine home games against Southwest Division opponents that held a winning record.
  • The Mavericks have lost four of their last five games at Ball Arena.
  • The Nuggets have covered the spread in eight of their last nine home games against Southwest Division opponents that held a winning record.
  • The Mavericks have failed to cover the spread in four of their last five games at Ball Arena.

Total Points Facts

  • Each of the Nuggets’ last seven games has gone OVER the total points line.
  • Each of the Mavericks’ last four road games against Northwest Division opponents has gone OVER the total points line.

Denver Nuggets vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction

The Mavericks are still missing Maxi Kleber, Dereck Lively, and Dante Exum with Luka Doncic listed as questionable, while the Nuggets are still missing Aaron Gordon. The Mavericks are coming into this game with some decent momentum, but they will be kicking themselves after dropping a heartbreaking loss to the Suns on Friday, while the Nuggets have shaken off a slow start to the season with four wins in a row and they would love that they have almost all their key players back healthy.
