Mavericks vs Thunder NBA Parlay Today: Daniel Gafford Ready To Put Up Big Rebounding Total

This game will likely feature tired legs, affecting NBA picks. The Dallas Mavericks and Oklahoma City Thunder each play the second of a back-to-back.

The Thunder are favored because they are the better team. They also play both games back-to-back at home. The Mavericks play their first game in Dallas without Luka Doncic before heading to Oklahoma City, where they will also be without their All-Star.

However, the Mavericks have beaten the Thunder twice this season, the only team to do that, both times without Doncic. The last time they matched up was a Mavericks 106-98 win six days ago, which could affect the BetUS sportsbook.

Mavericks vs Thunder free NBA Parlay Picks

  • Leg 1: ATS Thunder -13

Even though the Mavericks won the last game against the Thunder, there are some caveats. Yes, the Mavericks were without Doncic, but they have proven to beat the Thunder despite their All-Star.

In the game six days ago, the Thunder were also without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Gilgeous-Alexander is not only an MVP candidate but also leads the league in points per game (31.5). Having him back on the court will help the Thunder cover the NBA spreads. They have also covered their last eight wins over the previous 10 games.

 

  • Leg 2: Over 221

While the over might not seem like the best option in NBA predictions because of the last meeting, that might be why it’s a solid pick. The last time these teams played, the total line of points was set at 220, and with a combined 204 points, that game was well under.

However, the Thunder were without Gilgeous-Alexander, which was a big issue for the offense. Furthermore, in the other game, the Mavericks were without Doncic, and they won 121-119, hitting the over.

 

  • Leg 3: Luguentz Dort Over 1.5 Made 3-Pointers

When the Thunder’s offense clicks, Luguentz Dort is not at the center but still plays a significant role. Dort tends to be the top spacer on the court for the Thunder, averaging 2.3 made 3s per game. While his scoring is often erratic, this feels like a game where he should get some opportunities. Dort went 6 for 8 in the last game against the Mavericks from behind the 3-point line.

 

  • Leg 4: Daniel Gafford Over 9.5 Rebounds

Before the Mavericks’ back-to-back started, NBA news revealed that Dereck Lively II had a fractured foot. That will lead to Daniel Gafford getting much more playing time, boosting his stats. In the game before the injury, Gafford already got to start as a replacement for Lively, having 31 points and 15 rebounds. The Thunder are also not a great rebounding team, leading to hitting the over.
