Recommended Bet and Odds

Recommended Bet	FanDuel	BetMGM
Lauri Markkanen 26.5 points	-122	–

Analysis and Rationale

Lauri Markkanen is leading the Utah Jazz’s offensive charts, while averaging 27.6 points per game through 23 appearances this season. He is shooting 46.9% from the field and 35.8% from the three-point range. Apart from it, he is grabbing 6.7 rebounds per game while dishing out 2.0 assists.

In the most-recent game against the Grizzlies, Markkanen came up with 26 points on 40.9% shooting from the field and 30.0% from the three-point range. In fact, in the last five games, he has had three 25+ point performances.

Talking about the upcoming game, the Jazz have the second-worst defensive rating in the league, but as far as their offensive rating is considered, they are in a better spot than their rivals. Considering this, we can expect Markkanen to drop 27 points or more on Monday against the Mavs.

Utah Jazz vs Dallas Mavericks Predictions

The kind of campaign that the Utah Jazz are having this season is no different from their rest of the seasons- disappointing. Out of 24 games, they have managed to win only nine of them, and are seeded 12th in their conference. Though they are coming off a victory, the Jazz have been very inconsistent throughout the season. They are averaging 118.1 points per season, while allowing 125.8 points, highlighting their defensive woes. In addition to it, they have the 22nd ranked offensive rating of 113.3, while their defensive rating of 120.7 ranks them 29th in the league.

On the other hand, the Dallas Mavericks, who, too, had their worst nightmares coming to life in the beginning of the season, have seemingly found some stability. They won four of their last six games, handing defeats to giants such as the Denver Nuggets and Houston Rockets. They are averaging 112.1 points per game while allowing 115.9 points. However, they have improved their defense off-late. The Mavericks, though, are struggling in terms of offense, and have one of the worst offensive ratings at 108.8.

Talking about the upcoming game, the visitors will take on the Jazz riding high on confidence, owing to the availability of their players as well as recent performances. The Jazz, on the other hand, have homecourt advantage, but their defensive challenges put them in a tough spot. Considering the current rise of the Mavericks, we expect them to take the lead over the Jazz on Monday.

Predictions: Dallas Mavericks to win.
