Betting on the Dallas Mavericks
- Regular Season Record: 25-23.
Luka Doncic continues to do everything in his power to keep the Mavericks in playoff contention, but clearly other players on the team led by Jason Kidd need to give him a hand.
Doncic has averaged 31.3 points, 9.8 rebounds and 7.8 assists in the January and, of course, the Slovenian is the life and soul of this team. The Mavericks’ coach must find a way to get the team’s biggest star some help before the trade deadline arrives.
One collective aspect Dallas must urgently improve is their free throw percentage, as they rank 28th with a 74.2%.
Betting on the Phoenix Suns
- Regular Season Record: 24-24
Devin Booker’s injury caused the Suns to slide down the standings, but fortunately for them, they recently got Cameron Johnson and Chris Paul back, which has helped them to attain this streak of three wins in a row.
The Suns excel collectively in three-point shooting, ranking third in the NBA at 38.4%. In assists per game, they are fifth with an average with 26.8.
Booker’s return, who still does not have an exact date to rejoin, is the main reinforcement that the Suns will eventually receive, and for now, they have to try to weather the storm that his absence has caused.
JefeBet Prediction
The series between Mavericks and Suns this season is 1-1. Phoenix won the first game 107-105 at home, and then Dallas followed suit with a 130-111 win.
Considering that the Mavericks have not been playing at a good level recently, and that the Suns are playing without their star point guard Devin Booker, we are leaning towards a game in which these teams will score less than usual. It is also important to note that these teams rank 20th and 21st respectively in points per game.
Prediction: Under.
