Who Will Win the Mavericks vs Rockets?
Mavericks 116 - Rockets 114 Pick ATS
The Dallas Mavericks (16-11) face the Houston Rockets (13-12) Friday night at the Toyota Center in Houston, TX. Tip-off is scheduled for 8 pm ET.
The Mavericks could be quite undermanned with Kristaps Porzingis and Boban Marjanovic sidelined in the league's health and safety protocol.
The Rockets have been one of the surprise teams in the NBA this season, currently sitting in fifth place in the Western Conference. They are led by All-Star guard James Harden, who is averaging 34.4 points per game.
The Mavericks are coming off a 116-113 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night. Luka Doncic led the way with 36 points, 14 rebounds, and nine assists.
Matchup to Watch
The matchup to watch in this game will be between Doncic and Harden. Both players are capable of putting up big numbers, and it should be a lot of fun to see them go head-to-head.
Prediction
The Rockets are the home team and have been playing well lately. However, the Mavericks are the slightly better team and should be able to win this game, even if Porzingis and Marjanovic are out.
Pick: Mavericks -4
