Minnesota at Dallas

The Dallas Mavericks have been an up-and-down team this season, riding a pair of extensive winning streaks to be at a lofty level. The Mavericks have gone through an 18-1 run and a 17-1 run, but otherwise have played mediocre at best outside the streaks where they are 14-19. They were on an 8-19-2 ATS run before the first streak and after the second one. The T-Wolves have just five wins to show for 35 road games this season, but they will be measured by the fact that they are 7-1 ATS in their last eight as a double-digit dog. The Mavs have been unsuccessful attacking big numbers where they are 1-8 ATS in their last nine as a home favorite of 11 or more. Take Minnesota and the points.
