Our Cleveland Cavaliers vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
The Difference Maker: Dallas is 3-1 in their last 4 games and coming off a one-day rest. The Cavaliers are 1-3 in their last 4 games and were just ripped apart by Miami on Friday.
Betting Analysis: The well-rested Mavs will cover the spread. The Mavs found themselves in a bad matchup against the much shiftier T-Wolves, but against the Cavs, they will have the speed and enough firepower to outlast a team in the second half of a back-to-back schedule. Coming off disappointing performances against Minnesota, Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving are expected to deliver stellar numbers against a Cavs squad that allows opponents to average 115.8 points (19th in the NBA).
Fearless Forecast: The Mavs win 118-110
Our betting prediction for the Dallas Mavericks vs. the Cleveland Cavaliers: The Mavs win
