Because of all the players listed as questionable, player props have not been released yet, but I’ll be looking at a few different angles.

Part of that is the Rubber Band Effect we’re seeing in many NBA games every night, as teams with massive leads see them shrink more often than not. The Mavericks will officially be without their two leading scorers, Luka Doncic and Christian Wood, as well as Davis Bertans, who has been inconsistent all season and Maxi Kleber, who has been on the shelf since December. He has missed six games this season, and the Mavs are 0-6 in those games, with losses to the Houston Luka Doncic was forced to exit the game at the 6:47 mark in the third quarter, with the Mavs leading 84-57.

We go over some of the best betting options for Saturday's matchup between the Dallas Mavericks and Golden State Warriors.
