The Dallas Mavericks host the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday morning for the second game of their back-to-back after losing the first one 112-101 on Sunday. The Mavs continue to struggle without injured stars Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving, missing their artistry on a strange night where they threw away a double-digit lead and missed all their 3-point tries in the fourth quarter. The Denver Nuggets, who have Nikola Jokić available, is the bookmakers’ favorite to win again.

Dallas continues to find it difficult to play without their All-Star guards Doncic and Irving, going 2-5 without them with the loss to the Nuggets. Doncic, whose calf strain has hampered, is ineligible to contest for this season’s MVP, having played fewer than 65 games. In his absence, Klay Thompson led the Mavs with 25, but he missed his four 3-point efforts in a lackluster fourth period for the Mavericks, where they gave up a 12-point lead and missed all 11 3-point tries. The Mavs had been up by as much as 19 points in the third quarter, but a 33-12 final quarter became hugely detrimental. The Dallas Mavericks are 22-17 this season and sit at number five seed in the Western Conference with over .500 PCT.

The Denver Nuggets (25-13) won their third straight game and fourth in five with a massive late run to erase a double-digit deficit and beat the Mavs 112-101. In a poor 3 quarters in Dallas, the Nuggets hit only 4 of 25 3-pointers before being helped by an unlikely collapse from the hosts. The Nuggets, down by 19 points in the third and 12 early in the fourth, took the lead at 4:28 to play after a Jokic and P.J. Washington combo. Russel Westbrook led Denver with 21 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists, while three-time MVP Nikola Jokić added 19 points, 18 rebounds, and nine assists. The Nuggets are the fourth seed in the Western Conference standings.

The Dallas Mavericks are 2.48 underdogs on Betway, with the Denver Nuggets at 3.15 to close the (-10.5) spread. Over 230 is 1.857 odds on 1xbet, with the under at 2. Nikola Jokić is at 1.86 to score over 28.5 points on Bet365, with Klay Thompson at 1.86 to hit over 15.5. Read more here.
