Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks have been in a real slump as they’ve lost five of their last six games overall.

Mavericks vs Suns Prediction
The Suns are still slightly shorthanded with Jalen Green still out, while the Mavericks are keeping eyes on Dereck Lively and Anthony Davis who are both listed as questionable for this one. The Mavericks could get a bit of help if Davis can rejoin the lineup, but the bottom line is that they’ve been struggling lately and I’m surprised that they’re favorites in this one. With that being said, the Suns are starting to get in a groove now and are coming into this one fresh off another big win, so I will back the Suns as the underdogs in this spot.
