The Mavericks are still firmly in the playoff picture but a recent tricky run has slowed down a fast start to 2024/25. Dallas has won four of its last 14 games and are pretty middle-of-the-road in such key metrics as points won and lost per game, rebounds and three-point tries. Luka Doncic missed the 121-115 defeat Oklahoma on Thursday, but the Mavericks will hope the talismanic guard will be fit.
The Celtics are sat second in the Eastern Conference with a .689 PCT but the 18-time NBA champions 117-96 defeat to the LA Lakers was proof they can't let their guard down. Jayson Tatum has shone this season, averaging 27.4 points, 9.2 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game, and his form will be vital for the Celtics to maintain an excellent 16-5 road record in 2024/25.
No side has made more three-pointers per game in the 2024/25 NBA season than the Celtics’ 17.8 average, helped by Jayson Tatum’s excellence from beyond the line. Kyrie Irving reached 18,000 points recently and was superb in the Mavericks’ victory over the top-ranked Western Conference side Thunder on Thursday night, his energy and pressure crucial to Spencer Dinwiddie’s team-high 28 points.
The Celtics are an eight-point favorite against the Mavericks, for whom Klay Thompson has been passed fit. The over/under for the matchup is set at 221.5. The tip-off is nearly upon us, so get in front of the screen of your choosing for all the build-up to what promises to be a fascinating encounter.
