Houston managed a 103-102 win over the lowly Pistons on Friday and now the rebuilding Rockets have to play a back-to-back against the Mavericks, who have won two in a row. Dallas beat San Antonio as Luka Doncic had 36 points, 11 assists and nine rebounds and the Mavs are 7-3 ATS their last 10 games. The Rockets shot only 38.9 percent in an ugly game at Detroit, and they almost blew a 20-point second-quarter lead. Dallas won the first matchup 113-100 on January 4, and that was when James Harden was still with the Rockets. Houston is 1-7 ATS playing on no rest and 0-4 ATS this season following a win. The Rockets have gone OVER five of six games versus teams with winning records and the Mavericks are 10-4 OVER following a win dating to last season. Take the Mavericks and play the OVER.
