Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Clippers NBA Friday Preview

Last night, we cashed another NBA Same Game Parlay. We will attempt to cash again tonight. Jason Kidd’s Mavericks shocked the NBA world last season by storming to the NBA Finals, where they ultimately fell short against the Boston Celtics. Dallas entered this season expecting to be one of the best teams in the Western Conference. But, unfortunately for the Mavs, the season has not gone as planned. 

The most shocking move of the year came when they traded superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis. Whether that deal pays off remains to be seen, but right now, it’s still a head-scratcher. Dallas currently holds the ninth-best record in the Western Conference and leads the final Play-In spot by just 2.5 games. Kyrie Irving had been carrying the scoring load with 24.7 points and 4.6 assists per game, but he's now out for the season. Anthony Davis is averaging 19.5 points and 9.7 rebounds, while P.J. Washington has chipped in 14.8 points and 7.8 boards.

The Clippershave been red hot lately. With a 44-32 record, they currently sit eighth in the West, just 0.5 games behind the final playoff spot. Tyronn Lue’s squad has won eight of its last 10 games and will do everything possible to compete for a playoff spot down the stretch. James Harden leads the way with 22.5 points and 8.6 assists per game, while Norman Powell is enjoying the best year of his career with 22.4 points per game. Kawhi Leonard adds 20.8 points and 5.8 rebounds to a well-balanced attack.

Best Bet: Anthony Davis Over 21.5 Points (-110)


Mavericks vs. Clippers Betting Predictions

Clippers Moneyline

We’re using the Clippers moneyline as a parlay builder here. Los Angeles is in better form right now and thrives at home, where they’re 26-11 straight up.

Anthony Davis Over 21.5 Points

Davis draws a favorable matchup against this Clippers defense. After returning from injury in March, Davis averaged 28.5 minutes per game and should see 30+ minutes tonight. Our Action Pro Report projects 24.2 points from Davis — giving us solid value on this line.

Norman Powell Over 16.5 Points

Powell is averaging 22.4 points per game this season, despite some post-injury struggles in March, where he averaged just 14.4 points. He has played 31 minutes or more in three consecutive games and will return to form this month. Our Action Pro Report projects 19.4 points from Powell.
