Dallas Mavericks at New York Knicks

DAL @ NY Odds

  • Opening Point-Spread: Mavericks -4
  • Opening Money-Line: Mavericks -165
  • Opening Total: 228
  • Time: 7:30 p.m. ET

The Knicks bounced back from Saturday's loss to the Lakers by knocking off the short-handed Grizzlies, 123-113. 

New York has won 10 of its past 11 games, even though the Knicks failed to cover as 13-point favorites in Tuesday's win over Memphis.

The Mavericks look to sweep their three-game road swing after winning the first two contests at Philadelphia and Brooklyn. 

Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving combined for 71 points in Tuesday's 119-107 victory over the Nets, while the Mavericks cashed the Under for the fourth straight game.

The Mavericks seek the season sweep of the Knicks after winning at home, 128-124 as 4.5-point underdogs on January 11. 

Dallas jumped out to an 18-point lead after the first quarter before New York chipped away at the deficit. However, the Knicks couldn't complete the comeback even though Doncic sat out for Dallas.

Jalen Brunson hopes to face his former team as the Knicks' guard sustained an ankle injury in Tuesday's win and is listed as questionable for tonight's contest.

Minnesota Timberwolves at Milwaukee Bucks

MIN @ MIL Odds

  • Opening Point-Spread: Bucks -1
  • Opening Money-Line: Bucks -115
  • Opening Total: 226.5
  • Time: 8:00 p.m. ET

The Bucks are back home following a 1-4 road swing, capped off by a pair of losses to the Suns and Jazz.

The Timberwolves make the short trip to Milwaukee tonight as Minnesota blew a 22-point halftime lead in Tuesday's overtime setback at Chicago.

The Wolves are 13-2 off a loss this season, while posting a 3-1 SU/ATS record in their last four games in the underdog role.

Since the start of January, the Bucks own a dreadful 4-15 ATS mark, but three of those covers came as a favorite of four points or less.
