Knicks vs. Mavericks Prediction: Odds, expert picks, expected starting lineup, betting trends and stats

New York and Dallas meet on ESPN, with Jalen Brunson and Kyrie Irving headlining this matchup.

Dallas is 10-8 this year and has won five of its last six games despite injuries to Luka Doncic, Klay Thompson and Dereck Lively. Thompson and Lively are expected to play, but Doncic is out for the fourth straight game. The Mavericks are 2-1 in their last three games, including an OT loss to the Heat (123-118) in Miami. It’s the fourth game in six days for Dallas.

New York is 10-7 and has won five of its last six games, but unlike Dallas, they have been healthy throughout. The Knicks’ only loss came surprisingly against Utah (121-106). New York is playing its fourth game in seven days, so the Knicks have a slight remaining advantage here in their first meeting of the season.

NBC Sports Bet Best Bet

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) thinks Jalen Brunson scored over 32.5 points + assists against the Mavericks:

“Jalen Brunson has had some success as the Knicks’ primary ballplayer of late. In the last seven games, Brunson has recorded seven or more assists in each game and has scored at least 23 points in six of those games. During that run, Brunson averaged 25.8 points and 10.1 assists per game (35.9 P+A).

In the last three games without Luka Doncic, the Mavericks allowed 120.7 points per game (25th), 30.7 assists per game (25th), 24.0 free throw attempts (25th) and 37.6% from three (22nd). .) to. Brunson has averaged 20.3 potential assists and 18.0 field goal attempts per game in his last three appearances.

With or without Donic, Dallas hasn’t played good defense this season and I don’t expect it to start here. Brunson played against Dallas earlier and this is a nationally televised game to keep the Knicks’ hot streak alive. I like Brunson over 32.5 points + assists up to 33.5.”
