The season finale for the Dallas Mavericks (25-56) and the Chicago Bulls (31-50) will take place in Dallas on Saturday evening. Neither team is heading to the postseason, partly due to season-ending injuries to multiple players on each team. But this matchup should still be a competitive one. It will be their 2nd meeting of the season. Chicago took the previous meeting back in January when the Bulls hosted. Chicago won every quarter of the game, en route to the 125-107 victory.

It is a bit surprising to see that the Bulls won 2 of their last 3 games. However, when we see that it was the Wizards (17-64) who the Bulls defeated in both games, it is not as surprising. If we take out those 2 wins, the Bulls have lost their other 8 games in their current 10-game stretch.

The Dallas Mavericks are no strangers to the late-season struggles of the Bulls. Dallas is having their own bad stretch as the season winds down. They have lost 6 of their last 7 games. Unlike the Bulls, their most recent win was against a more respectable opponent than the Wizards. Dallas knocked off the Lakers last Sunday, in a game where Cooper Flagg dropped 45.

Both teams have little to play for so whichever team is motivated to finish the season on a winning note and finds that bit of fire should come out on top here. Homecourt could very well provide that spark.

Our Dallas Mavericks vs Chicago Bulls Prediction

Cooper Flagg and company will be on their home court and ready to end the season on a high note. The fact that the spread is more than two possessions leads us to believe that the Mavericks are going to have a relatively easy time with the visiting Bulls. We do not believe the Bulls are going to be motivated after playing at home on Friday, where they lost by 24 to the Magic, and now have to head down to Dallas for this meaningless final game. Give us the Mavs by close to double-digits.

Our prediction for Dallas Mavericks vs Chicago Bulls: Dallas -6.5
