At the trade deadline, the Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks made the biggest moves for NBA news. The Warriors acquired Jimmy Butler to pair him with Stephen Curry while the Mavericks shockingly traded superstar Luka Doncic to the Lakersfor Anthony Davis.
However, based on an early evaluation of the deals, the Warriors have made the better move. Davis looked great in his debut but left early with an injury, and he will miss a lot of time. On the other hand, Butler has fit the Warriors like a glove, as they have won their two games with him.

Warriors vs Mavericks Score Prediction
This game will be interesting for the BetUS sportsbook to come up with a line. It is the first of a back-to-back for both teams, with the All-Star break following. Plus, there is a big concern about the injuries in the Mavericks’ frontcourt.
The Warriors have also played well since acquiring Butler and should win this game 122-113, despite the Mavericks’ being competitive recently.

Warriors vs Mavericks Best 2 NBA Player Props Today
1. Buddy Hield Over 3.5 3-Point FGs (+114)
Yes, Butler’s acquisition is great for the Warriors because it provides another star for Steph Curry to work off of. However, Buddy Hield is the one surprise player who could benefit from the addition.
Hield started the season hot, but as the Warriors hit a slump, so did he. But over the last four games, that has changed. He is shooting 41.2% from three, making 3.5 on 8.5 attempts, per Warriors vs Mavericks stats.
His shooting is crucial for Butler and Draymond Green, who are both creators but not deep threats. Their creation ability, along with teams focusing on Curry, opens so much space for Hield to have open looks.
Bet This Pick: Buddy Hield Over 3.5 3-Point FGs (+114)
2. Jimmy Butler Over 5.5 Assists (+120)
Personally, adding Butler to this roster did not appear to make much sense, but after two games, I see the vision a little. Butler provides another player outside of Curry that can drive to the paint, get to the foul line, or collapse a defense.
This is important for Butler because he is not a threat from behind the arc. So far, his role on the Warriors has been to get to the line, taking 28 free throws compared to 24 field goals and being a playmaker with 10 assists. As time goes along, his assists stats should only keep improving when making NBA player prop bets.
Bet This Pick: Jimmy Butler Over 5.5 Assists (+120)
Warriors vs Mavericks Moneyline Pick: Warriors
One of the strengths that many thought the Mavericks could have is their frontcourt, led by Davis, Daniel Gafford and Dereck Lively II. That is a lot of size for a small Warriors team.
However, Davis and Lively are already listed as out while Gafford hurt his knee in a thrilling 129-128 overtime loss to the Sacramento Kings. Plus, another frontcourt player in P.J. Washington is a game-time decision.
Given how the Warriors are playing with Butler, we like them to get the win in our NBA predictions.
Warriors vs Mavericks Spread Pick: Warriors (-7 -110)
In the last four games, the Mavericks have made things interesting, keeping it close with the Philadelphia 76ers on the road, beating the Boston Celtics and Houston Rockets and then losing by one to the Kings in overtime, per NBA betting trends.
Despite all the concerns around the Mavericks without Doncic, they have looked good in those four games, with Kyrie Irving stepping up. However, adding Butler to the Warriors has rejuvenated the team. That will help them cover the NBA spread against a Mavericks team waiting for the All-Star break.
Warriors vs Mavericks Over/Under Pick: Over 233
Both teams have hit the over eight times in their last 10 games. That will lead NBA picks toward the over in this matchup. In theory, both teams should be good defensively, but with the injuries to the Mavericks frontcourt and the hot Warriors offense, the over is the clear betting option.
Bet This Pick: Warriors vs Mavericks Over 233
