Dallas Mavericks - NBA Betting Analysis

The Mavericks enter today's game having lost three straight, including a 117-109 loss to the Hornets. Luka Doncic led the team in scoring with 34 points on 52.2% shooting. Going into the game, Dallas was 16.5 point favorites, adding an ATS loss to their resume.

Now, the Mavericks' overall record sits at 36-38, placing them 11th in the Western Conference. The team's current record at home is 22-16 and 14-22 on the road. Dallas' record against the spread is below .500 at 29-43.

Offensively, the Mavericks are 17th in the league at 113.8 points per game. But over their last five games, Dallas has been playing well, averaging 118 points per contest. Dallas' three-point shooting numbers are among the best in the NBA, as the team ranks 9th in the NBA, having hit 37.0% of their looks from deep. But given that they are just 28th in possessions per game, their overall scoring numbers are closer to the league average. Currently, the Mavericks are 15th in overall field goal percentage.

Dallas' defense is currently ranked 15th in the league at 104.7 points allowed per game. Dallas is hovering around the league average despite forcing turnovers at a below average rate at 11.8 per game. Also, the unit has struggled to clean up the defensive glass, ranking 27th in defensive rebounds per game. So far, opponents have hit 45.8% of their field goal attempts and 34.0% of their looks from deep.

 

Charlotte Hornets - NBA Betting Analysis

The Hornets enter today's game looking to build some momentum after a 117-109 win over the Mavericks. P.J. Washington and his 28 led the way for the Hornets. Charlotte was the 16.5 point underdog heading into the game, giving them an ATS win.

With the win, the team has moved to 24-51, placing them 14th in the Eastern Conference. So far this season, they have gone 12-24 at home and 12-27 on the road. Charlotte's record against the spread is below .500 at 32-38.

The Hornets' offense has had difficulties scoring throughout the season, ranked 27th with an average of 111.2 points per game. To make matters worse, they have seen a drop in production lately, averaging just 102 points per contest over their last five games. The Hornets' offensive performance has been impacted by their three-point shooting this season, currently ranked 30th after hitting 32.7% of their attempts. However, they are currently above-average in pace, sitting 6th in the league. When looking at their free-throw shooting numbers, Charlotte is 15th in attempts and 27th in free-throw shooting percentage.

Charlotte's defense will take the court ranked 15th in the league at 104.7 points per game. Despite their struggles on the defensive glass, ranking 34.1 in defensive rebounds per contest, and generating turnovers at a below-average rate of 13.3 per game, the unit has managed to maintain league average numbers. So far, opponents have shot 45.8% from the field and 34.0% from beyond the arc.

 

Today's NBA Betting Pick - Mavericks vs. Hornets

Today will be the second time that these two teams have matched up this season. In the first meeting, the Hornets came out on top with a 117-109 win. The over/under line going into the game was 228.5 points (under) with the Mavericks as 16.5 point favorites, giving the Hornets an ATS win as the underdog.

In the Mavericks' previous five games as the favorite, they have a straight up record of 3-2 while going 2-3 against the spread. In their last three road contests, they are 3-0 ATS and 2-1 straight up. Their previous ten games have an over/under mark of 3-6-1 with an average of 228 points per contest.

Across Charlotte's last five games at home, they have an ATS mark of 3-2 while going 3-2 straight-up. As the underdog, the Hornets are 2-1 straight up on an average scoring differential of -2 points per game. This has led to an ATS mark of 3-0. Their previous ten games have ended in an average of 216 points per game and an over/under mark of 3-7.

Recommended ATS Betting Pick: CHA +9.5

Recommended OU Betting Pick: Under 228.0
