Denver at Dallas

Dallas won the first meeting 124-117 on the road in overtime, January 7, for its fourth cover in the past five meetings. Now the Mavericks are in a good scheduling situation as they catch the Nuggets coming off two overtime wins at Phoenix, and playing with just one day of rest. Dallas had an off-shooting night against Houston on Saturday, making only five of 25 three-point attempts, while the Rockets shot 55 percent overall. The Mavericks are 28-12 ATS their last 40 games after losing by at least 10 points, and they are 7-3 ATS their last 10 games overall. The Nuggets are 3-7-1 ATS their last 11 meetings at Dallas, and Denver is just 3-7-1 ATS following a win. Look for Dallas to bounce back against the weary Nuggets. Play the Mavericks.
