Preview:
There are only two games separating these two sides in the Western Conference standings, however it’s clear the bookies have factored in each team’s home and away record when shaping the market.
The Mavericks have opened as -3 favourites behind their 11-8 record at home, while the Nuggets find themselves as underdogs with just 10 wins from 17 road games.
At first glance it might appear as though the line is a little generous in Dallas’ favour, but this is one of those cases where the bookies might know something we don’t.
The Mavs will go without Kristaps Porzingis as he looks set for a return later in the week. That should open things up for Nikola Jokic in the paint, but if the Nuggets continue to struggle on defence, this could turn into another edition of the Luka Doncic show.
Denver has allowed the third-highest field goal percentage to opponents over their last 10-game span. With Doncic coming in off his fourth consecutive 30-point game and the Mavs also sporting a 12-7 record against the spread vs conference opponents, take Dallas to win this comfortably.
Odds:
Tip: Dallas Mavericks at $1.64
