A total of nine games are scheduled in the NBA on Sunday, one of which will feature a matchup between the Boston Celtics and the Dallas Mavericks. Let’s take a look at the match statistics and predictions for this game between the Celtics and the Mavericks.

Dallas enters this game with a record of 7-6. The Mavericks most recently lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday night, making it the second night of a back-to-back. Dallas has now lost two games in a row, both of which were by wide margins. Having said that, the Mavericks have still been in the top half of the league defensively, which could lead to a low-scoring game against the Celtics.

As for Boston, they enter this game with a record of 10-2. The Celtics are coming off a win against the Toronto Raptors by a score of 98-93. Not only has Boston established themselves as one of the top teams in the league thus far, but they have done so by being the top-ranked defense in the NBA. With how good their defense has been, there is further reason to believe points could be hard to come by.
