The Dallas Mavericks are in Boston to take on the NBA-leading Celtics on Wednesday night. Here are our Mavericks-Celtics NBA picks.
Both the Mavericks (9-7) and Celtics (13-4) are coming off of losses heading into their Wednesday matchup. The Mavericks may be without forward Maxi Kleber (doubtful) and Spencer Dinwiddie (questionable). They are led by guard Luka Doncic who is averaging an NBA-best 33.5 point-per-game.
The Celtics are enjoying a great start to the season and currently have the best record in the NB A. Forward Jayson Tatum may be playing the best basketball of his career, averaging 30.2 points per game and contributing across the board. Boston is 6-1 at home and enjoyed a nine-game winning streak before Monday night's loss. There is some room for concern, however, as Tatum has been listed as questionable for this game.
Here are our Mavericks vs. Celtics picks (odds via PointsBet and DraftKings Sportsbook; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).
