Dallas Mavericks vs Toronto Raptors Prediction
The Dallas Mavericks are getting healthy, and they’re playing their best ball of the season, with a 9-1 SU and ATS record in their last 10 games. The Toronto Raptors were a cover team earlier in the season, but they’ve been hit or miss lately, and they just don’t have the offensive horses needed to compete with a team like the Mavs. The Dallas Mavericks are just too hot to bet against right now, especially when going up against one of the lesser teams in the league. I’ll lay the points with the Mavs on the road.
