American Airlines Center will be lit as Dallas clashes with Denver on Thursday. The Mavericks are 12th at 15–25, while the Nuggets are second at 27–13. Who is likely to emerge victorious? Check out our prediction below.
Dallas shot 51% overall and 44% from beyond the arc to defeat Brooklyn 113–105 in an inter-conference clash on Tuesday. That result saw the Mavericks return to winning ways after back-to-back defeats to Utah (116–114) and Chicago (125–107).
They will aim to secure a second straight victory on Thursday, but that would count as a big upset given their overall record this season. Jason Kidd’s men are five games below .500 and 12.0 games back of the Nuggets.
Denver appeared to have found their rhythm after a slight setback against Atlanta. They came from five points down in the first half to defeat New Orleans 122–116 the last time out, thanks to Jamal Murray’s game-high 35 points.
That victory marked their second in a row and fourth in their last five games. They are seven games above. 500 and have won their last three away games.

Our Dallas Mavericks vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
Despite their home advantage, Thursday's clash will be another challenging game for Dallas and they are unlikely to see off their visitors. They haven't impressed lately and have grossly underperformed this season compared to their high-flying opponents Denver.
For the Nuggets, this game is an opportunity to extend their recent winning streak and double down on their push for the Conference title. David Adelman’s charges ride a three-game winning run on the road and are well-placed to ace this tie. Our Dallas Mavericks vs Denver Nuggets prediction is Denver Nuggets wins.
