The Dallas Mavericks will play the Portland Trail Blazers for the first time this season on Sunday at American Airlines Center.
Current Form
Still missing the service of their two biggest stars, the Mavs will march into their first showdown with the Blazers this season as +132 underdogs after posting a 3-10 record through the first three weeks of the new season. No.1 overall pick Cooper Flag has stepped up as the No.1 offensive option for the banged-up Mavs, averaging 15.6 points per game on 43.6 FG%. The lack of firepower has significantly crippled Dallas’ offense, which has generated an average of 109 points per game (27th in the NBA).
After a torrid start to the season, the Blazers have lost three of their last four games to drop to 6-6. Portland also suffered a heavy beating from the Houston Rockets in its last game, bowing to the Kevin Durant-led team 116-140 on Nov. 14. Dani Avdija, who averages 25.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game this season, posted 22 points and 10 rebounds in the loss.

Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
Fearless Forecast: This might be an unpopular pick, but I am taking the Mavs to win in this match. Dallas has played competitive basketball in their last three losses against a trio of solid teams despite missing Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving. The Mavs are also 7-0 in their last 7 home games in Portland and 4-1 ATS in their last five games against teams from the Northwest Division. The Blazers are a much better team this season with the emergence of Dani Avdija as the team’s centerpiece, but I really believe the Mavs can hack out a win behind the individual brilliance of Flagg and strong contributions from the supporting cast.
