NBA betting odds have the Los Angeles Lakers at -4.5 against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday, in what could be an early look-in for the Western Conference playoffs. The game marks the first for Dallas’ Anthony Davis against his former team since the blockbuster trade involving Luka Doncic on Feb. 2.
Lakers vs Mavericks Prediction
The Lakers have a strong team from top to bottom, and although the Mavericks are still in the playoff hunt, they could be outclassed at home.
Based on that, my Lakers vs Mavericks score prediction has the Lakers winning 118-112.
Lakers vs Mavericks Best NBA Player Props Today
1. Luka Doncic Over 31.5 Points (-113)
One of my best NBA player props today is Luka Doncic over 31.5 points. He will want redemption after getting ejected on Tuesday, and if he’s in the mood to score, he could put up a big number on the suspect Mavericks’ defense. Doncic wants to show his best scoring form as the playoffs approach, so he won’t take this game cheaply – especially against his former club.
2. Klay Thompson Over 12.5 Points (-108)
I used to enjoy seeing Klay Thompson’s impact with NBA Finals odds, but his glory days with the Golden State Warriors are over. However, although he’s no longer a splash brother, he can still make an impact for the Mavericks. He dropped 14 points against the Clippers, and should be open on the wings against the Lakers. I’m taking NBA betting odds for Thompson to have a big night.
3. LeBron James Over 6.5 Rebounds (-145)
I expect the Mavericks to shoot a lot of blanks, and LeBron James should be there to clean up the boards. He loves getting involved off the rebound, and the pace of the game should allow him to run out and get down the court quickly. Bettors should expect his rebounding numbers to improve at this time of the year, as we could see over the next few NBA games.
Bet on These Lakers vs Mavericks Player Props Here
Lakers vs Mavericks Moneyline Pick
My NBA picks include the Lakers to win outright at -160. They have the class edge over the Mavericks, and only need to muster enough energy following a defeat on Tuesday. With the playoffs so close, we expect them to want to win and take some momentum into the postseason.
Lakers vs Mavericks Spread Pick
The -3.5 line for the Lakers is worth taking, and according to NBA news today, all the big stars should be on the court for the Lakers. They are a deep team, and although the Mavs have Davis, they don’t have Kyrie Irving, which is a big loss. Therefore, I’m taking the Lakers to score a comfortable win.
Lakers vs Mavericks Over/Under Pick
The over 229 points is worth including in picks. There shouldn’t be a lack of offense in this game, which could be a classic Western Conference high-scoring affair. I expect the Lakers to post a big total, and it’s only on the Mavericks to keep pace for most of the game.
Bet on Lakers vs Mavericks Over 229 (-110)
