The Mavericks will be 6.5-point favorites to beat the Rockets on Thursday night at the American Airlines Center. The reigning Western Conference champions started this new season with a 3-1 record, winning two games on consecutive days against the Jazz and Timberwolves by scoring 110 points or more. In 2024, they won both games against the Rockets, the last one a game that was decided in overtime 147-136.

On Tuesday, Doncic once again dressed as the clutch man to hit the final 3-point dagger in the last victory against the Timberwolves. Although it was Irving who had the best game, as in Minnesota he scored 35 points, grabbed 4 rebounds and registered 5 assists. Doncic, while he did make the key 3-pointer late in the game, didn't start the season off with much focus on his shooting, in fact he missed 15 of the 17 3-pointers he attempted in back-to-back games this week.

The Rockets started the season with a 2-2 record, and while they've been pretty erratic with a true shooting percentage of 52.7, they've been able to make up for that by being the 2nd team in the NBA that gets the most offensive rebounds per game, with 15.0.

Our Dallas Mavericks vs Houston Rockets Prediction

After Green signed a 3-year, $100 million contract extension with the Rockets earlier this month, he had a standout performance against the Spurs in the last win, where he scored 36 points in 37 minutes on the court. Meanwhile, on the Mavericks side, Doncic was amazed by his team's early good performance, saying "Our team is so deep." This duel in Dallas could result in many points like the last one on April 7. Our prediction for Mavericks vs Rockets is: Over 226.5, -120 at DraftKings.
