Mavericks at 76ers picks and predictions

Prediction

Mavericks 120, 76ers 113

Moneyline

PASS.

There is better value on the Mavericks (-130) spread.

Against the spread

BET MAVERICKS -1.5 (-115).

The Mavericks are coming off a tough loss at home against the Bucks Saturday and are looking to bounce back against a Sixers team that recently lost Embiid, the league's leading scorer at 35.3 points per game. While dealing with lingering injuries, expect Doncic and company to take care of a struggling Philadelphia team Monday. Philly has lost 5 of its last 6 games and has covered just once in its last 5.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 242.5 (-115).

Without Embiid, the Sixers' offensive dynamic has shifted, scoring 121 or fewer points in 4 of their last 5. Dallas has hit the Under in 7 of its last 10, including 3 of its last 4 and 2 of its last 3 on the road. The Mavs have scored 117 or fewer points in 7 of their last 10, including just 87 in their last road game. Expect a slower pace between 2 teams dealing with injuries.
