Teams are fine-tuning their performance. The newcomers are adapting, and the ones that were already on the team must be trained to integrate with them. That’s what the most exciting basketball league of all is all about.

Betting on the Dallas Mavericks
- Regular season record: 1-1
- Spread: -4.5
- Moneyline: -190
- Over/Under: 219.5
After an erratic start with a close loss to the Phoenix Suns (by two points), the Mavericks woke up and got their first win of the season. With a high performing Luka Dončić (32 points, 7 rebounds and 10 assists), they crushed Ja Morant’s Grizzlies by a historic 137-96. This was the largest victory in the history of the Mavs over the Memphis Grizzlies.
Luka Dončić has had a sensational start to the season, averaging 33.5 points in the first two games. He also scored 17 of 18 free throws. For this game, Dallas will fortunately be able to rely on its new signing, Argentine point guard Facundo Campazzo, from the Denver Nuggets.
Betting on the New Orleans Pelicans
- Regular season record: 2-1
- Spread: +4.5
- Moneyline: +160
- Over/Under: 219.5
Pelicans are battling a bit of an injury streak right now. They lost Brandon Ingram (to a concussion) and Zion Williamson (to a posterior hip contusion) in Sunday’s 122-121 overtime loss to the Utah Jazz in what was New Orleans’ home opener.
Williamson’s injury is certainly disconcerting to Pelicans fans. He missed all of last season with a foot injury and has struggled with weight-related issues for much of his career.
The loss at home came as a bucket of cold water, as they had started off with a bang this season, with two wins away from the Smoothie King Center, against Charlotte Hornets and Brooklyn Nets.
JefeBet Prediction
Dallas is making the most of its great star, Luka Dončić, and the Slovenian can make a big difference against a Pelicans team that will suffer the absence of important players within their offense. As a result, at JefeBet believe that the Texas team will capture a small but good victory over New Orleans.
Prediction: Dallas Mavericks win by 7 points.
