Dallas Mavericks vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction
This is another game where the line doesn’t make sense. The Spurs are obviously the healthier team at home, but they just lost to the Mavs a couple of days ago as 6.5-point favorites. While the Mavericks have endless injuries, the Spurs have been freefalling for over a month now and they’re 2-8 SU and ATS in their last 10 games. The Mavs have also won seven straight games against the Spurs. The Spurs haven’t beaten the Mavs since April 2023. I don’t want to back the Mavs as much as the next guy, but I’m not laying this many points with the Spurs in their current form. It’s Mavs or pass for me.
