The Spurs are 15-6-1 ATS in their last 22 road games and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 Thursday games. The Mavericks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Thursday games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The over is 5-1 in Spurs last 6 overall. The under is 6-1 in Mavericks last 7 overall. The Spurs are 6-13 ATS in the last 19 meetings.
The San Antonio Spurs still have defensive issues they need to clean up and the roster has some injuries, but they've been competitive up to this point and just took the Lakers to overtime. The Dallas Mavericks are a talented team that will turn things around eventually, but their offensive issues have been real and Porzingis is dealing with an injury, which doesn't help matters. I don't like the way the Mavs are playing right now. In-state rivalry as well. Give me the Spurs and the free buckets.
