The Dallas Mavericks will take on the New York Knicks at 8:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday at the American Airlines Center. Both teams are 18-16 on the season but Dallas is 13-5 at home, while New York is 10-6 on the road. Despite the matching records, the Knicks have been the far-more advantageous side for bettors this season with New York going 18-15-1 against the spread while Dallas is just 12-19-3.
The Knicks have also won and covered the spread in six of the last 10 head-to-head matchups with the Mavericks. Yet, Dallas is favored by 5 points in the latest Mavericks vs. Knicks odds from Caesars Sportsbook and the over/under is set at 219. Before entering any Knicks vs. Mavericks picks, you’ll want to see the NBA predictions from the model at SportsLine.
The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every NBA game 10,000 times and has returned well over $10,000 in profit for $100 players on its top-rated NBA picks over the past four-plus seasons. The model enters Week 11 of the 2022-23 NBA season on a stunning 33-13 roll on all top-rated NBA picks this season, returning almost $1,800. Anyone following it has seen huge returns.
Now, the model has set its sights on Mavericks vs. Knicks. You can head to SportsLine to see its picks. Here are several NBA betting lines for Knicks vs. Mavericks:
The Mavericks beat the Los Angeles Lakers 124-115 on Sunday. Dallas relied on the efforts of center Christian Wood, who had 30 points and seven assists in addition to eight rebounds, and point guard Luka Doncic, who had 32 points and nine assists along with nine boards.
Doncic is also coming off a 50-point outburst in a win over the Rockets on Friday, and he’s averaging 32.8 points, 8.7 assists and 8.3 rebounds per game. He’s been on the fringe of the MVP discussion the last couple of years but he could be a leading candidate if he can get the Mavericks back into the postseason during what has been an up-and-down year. Forward Dorian Finney-Smith (adductor) and center Maxi Kleber (hamstring) are out on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, New York came up short against the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday, falling 119-112. New York’s defeat came about despite a quality game from power forward Julius Randle, who had 35 points in addition to eight rebounds. Jalen Brunson also had a big game with 23 points and 11 assists while R.J. Barrett and Mitchell Robinson posted double-doubles as well.
New York was the recipient of an unpleasant 121-100 punch to the gut against Dallas in the teams’ previous meeting earlier this month. The Knicks committed 19 turnovers in that loss and the Mavericks went 24-of-61 (39.3%) from the 3-point line in the game with Doncic pouring in 30 points. Brunson (hip) is questionable for New York.
The model has simulated Mavericks vs. Knicks 10,000 times and the results are in. We can tell you that the model is leaning Under and it’s also generated a point-spread pick that is hitting in well over 60% of simulations. You can only see the pick at SportsLine.
