The Warriors are 9-point favorites over the Mavericks on the spread (Warriors -9), with the over/under set at 229.5 total points. Golden State is a -345 favorite to win outright, while Dallas is +275 to pull off the upset.
Let's get to my Mavericks vs. Warriors predictions and NBA picks for Sunday, February 23.
Mavericks vs Warriors Prediction
Spread
Passing on this.
The Warriors should win, but are they good enough to assure us a cover?
The Mavs are probably where I'd lean but this isn't a play for me. Dallas did beat the Warriors on February 12 at home, and that was a game Golden State failed to cover, for what it's worth.
Moneyline
Dallas or nothing spot and no real reason to back Dallas confidently.
Over/Under
I kinda like the Under here. Dallas beat Golden State 111-107 less than two weeks ago, the only Warriors loss with Jimmy Butler so far.
The Warriors just put up 130+ points against the Kings, but that was the Kings…
My Pick: Under 229.5

Dallas Mavericks vs Golden State Warriors NBA Sunday Preview
I also like Max Christie over 13.5 points at +100 on FanDuel. He's over in all seven games in Dallas with no signs of stopping yet. I'll ride this one out until it fails me twice. The Mavericks need his offense in a way few expected.
I also like Jimmy Butler over 11.5 rebounds plus assists. He's over in three of four and is in a spot where both teams lack fearsome interior size, opening the pathway for activity on the boards. Plus, Butler has been playmaking very well, going for seven more assists last game.
