The Dallas Mavericks will be without Luka Doncic and Christian Wood as they travel to take on the Golden State Warriors. Our Mavericks-Warriors NBA picks are based on the best NBA odds.
Though the Warriors have been enduring a disappointing season so far, their performances at home have been quite impressive. They're just 26-26 overall but 19-6 at home. Golden State is now the double-digit favorite over a shorthanded Mavericks team in San Francisco on Saturday because of that Chase Center success.
The Mavericks' hands will be full without their two leading scorers on Saturday. Both Luka Doncic and Christian Wood are out for this first contest of a five-game road trip. They'll need Spencer Dinwiddie (17.6 points per game) and Tim Hardaway Jr. (13.5) to step up in a big way to pull off the upset.
Here is our best Mavericks-Warriors NBA pick (odds via BetMGM; Pick confidence is based on a 1-to-5-star scale).
