Dallas Mavericks vs Denver Nuggets Preview

The Mavs are missing their heart and soul

The Mavs’ season has derailed in the absence of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. They have lost six of their last eight games. But still, they have been more competitive than the recent performances suggest. While Klay Thompson did regain some rhythm in the last match-up, he hasn’t been the answer without Irving and Doncic. The Mavs have defended well but are not good enough to hold on to leads or erase big deficits against tough squads. The team has somehow managed to not fall apart completely but needs its aces back soon. Thankfully, Irving will at least return before Doncic.

The Jokic-Westbrook duo is for real

Westbrook has finally found the perfect fit after more than half a decade. His partnership with Jokic has been the talk of the town and both the triple-double maestros complement each other brilliantly. As a result, the Nuggets have won eight of their last ten games and building a separation from the squads below their ranking. The return of Aaron Gordon gives them further flexibility and they can be a force to reckon with if they keep building on the current momentum.

Dallas Mavericks vs Denver Nuggets– Final Prediction and Additional Information

The Nuggets and Mavericks will play each other within a space of two days. Last time, the Nuggets erased a 19-point deficit which would have decimated the short-handed Mavs’ composure further. At any rate, the Nuggets can cross the 115 points here at least, if not 120 points. They can win by 10+ points again, despite playing away from home.

Russell Westbrook can be expected to score at least 17 points whereas Spencer Dinwiddie can also cross a similar mark.

Hi, I am Shubham. I am currently an NBA Predictions Writer on The Playoffs. I enjoy this job because it helps keep me in the loop about the game I love while fulfilling the pleasure I derive from stats. I got into NBA writing through social media interactions in the mid-2010s as I shared my takes on young talents such as D’Angelo Russell. I hope you enjoy reading my pieces as much as Dennis Rodman loved rebounding the basketball!
