Interconference NBA action will take center-stage on Friday night with the Mavericks set to visit the Bucks in primetime on ESPN. So, VI has you covered with another slate of Best Bets and Game Previews to help handicap all the action.
Subject to Change
The Bucks come into this game as a 6-point favorite, marking the sixth time already this season that the Mavericks have been listed as the ‘underdog’ in a matchup.
While the total for this matchup sits at OU 227 – currently the second highest ‘over-under’ on Friday’s NBA board.
The Mavericks have won and covered the spread in each of their last four games, with only two of those victories coming in contests that Dallas was favored in.
Dallas’ most recent affair was all about Luka Doncic per usual, as the All-Pro guard fell just one assist shy of his third triple-double of the season in the Mavs’ victory over the Hornets this past Wednesday (34 points, 13 rebounds, 9 assists).
On the flipside, the Bucks got off to a rocky 2-3 start to the season but since then have won six of their last seven games, with their only loss across that stretch coming against Utah during the front-end of a back-to-back set.
