The Mavericks are coming into this game as a 1 point favorite with the current betting odds according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Mavericks have been playing very well recently going on a long streak and winning a lot of their games but they are coming off of an awful loss at home to the Thunder in their last game and they must be very angry after that pathetic loss at home. They will be looking to bounce back here and they are getting a 76ers team that has started to struggle a bit recently and are also coming off of a loss in their last game at home to the Wizards who were bound to win one eventually with all of their blown leads recently. The Mavericks will take advantage of being at home here and they should be able to bounce back with a much needed win here after that poor performance. The best bet to place in this game is on the Mavericks to cover the spread here and win this game.

"I just thought we never got our offensive rhythm the entire night." - Doc Rivers on his team’s loss against the Wizards on Wednesday night.

 

 

"They just played harder than we did. When it got tight there, we started to play better. We put ourselves in a position like Orlando: Someone had to make a shot — someone did.
