Dallas Mavericks vs LA Clippers: Predicted lineups

The Dallas Mavericks with no Dereck Lively II will most probably put Dwight Powell back into the center position. The team has been fielding Grant Williams and Derek Jones Jr. at forwards while Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic are locks at the guard position.

For the LA Clippers, Terance Mann has been starting in place of Russell Westbrook who has been relegated to coming off the bench. Paul George and Kawhi Leonard are the forwards while Ivica Zubac and James Harden round up the starting five.

Dallas Mavericks vs LA Clippers: Betting tips

The NBA props for Luka Doncic has been a high 30.5 points and he has gone over the mark only once in the last five games. With the trend, it is quite risky to pick him to go over again.

Kyrie Irving is at 25.5 points on the NBA props and he has been hitting the mark three times last five matchups. With the attention given to Doncic, he should step up and go over.

Dallas Mavericks vs LA Clippers: Prediction

The Dallas Mavericks had been going under the total for the last two games while the LA Clippers went under five times. Logically, going under is the safer bet to make for this matchup. With the spread just only 1.5 points, do expect the spread to get covered easily.
