Houston Rockets (29-17) and Dallas Mavericks (19-29) will clash in the Western Conference on Saturday night at the Toyota Center. The Rockers will come into this game looking to continue with their impressive form, having won seven of their last 10 matches. They picked up a comfortable 18-point victory against the Hawks on Thursday night on the road after winning all four quarters. This game gives them a chance to build some winning momentum.
Dallas Mavericks, meanwhile, cannot seem to overcome their struggles this season. They’re 11th in the conference standings, 18.5 games behind Oklahoma City Thunder at the top. The Mavs will be shooting this weekend to end their three-game slide, with their latest assignment ending in a 121-123 home loss to Charlotte Hornets. The odds are really against them getting a win at the Toyota Center.

Our Houston Rockets vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
Houston Rockets are the heavy -625 betting favorites. They’ll know that a loss could see the Lakers, Suns, and Timberwolves leapfrog them in the standings this weekend. The good news for them is that they have a solid 16-4 home record this season. However, they’ve struggled to score points lately, averaging 108.8 PPG in the last five games. The Mavericks have outperformed them in this regard, averaging 122.4 points over the previous seven matches. Dallas will travel without Kyrie Irving (knee) and Anthony Davis (finger), which should give the hosts a significant advantage. Still, we expect them to cover the +11.5 spread.
Our prediction for Houston Rockets vs Dallas Mavericks: Over 220.5 points.
