Dallas Mavericks vs. Boston Celtics Prediction
The Dallas Mavericks have improved 4-0 on the road this season when they defeated Memphis. The team won for the third time in four meetings overall and entered Sunday tied for the top spot with the Rockets in the Southwest Division. The Mavericks have been performing exceptionally well this season only losing to Orlando by one point, to Portland by two, and an overtime defeat to the Lakers. In this matchup, Dallas relies on superstar Luka Doncic. The team currently ranks first in offensive ratings through nine games. Doncic has led the charge alongside contributions from Kristaps Porzingis and the rest of the team.
The Celtics are currently ranking fifth in defense and will turn to Marcus Smart and Jayson Tatum for tonight’s game. Gordon Hayward won’t be playing as he is currently out with a broken hand, whereas Enes Kanter is listed questionable after sustaining an injury to his knee.
Best Pick: The Dallas Mavericks are our best pick for tonight. After the loss of Hayward, things might turn out differently for Boston and the team will need to figure who to pick to fill the void. Dallas averages 48.0 in rebounds while the Celtics sit on 39.4 when Hayward’s average is subtracted.
