Dallas Mavericks vs Toronto Raptors prediction

The Dallas Mavericks are the better team and a team I’ve backed a lot this season and think highly of, so it’s hard to turn them down in the small favorite role. However, the Mavs are fresh off a last second loss which can’t feel great, and now they have to get into Canada on the end of a back to back. Not a great spot for the Mavericks. Also, the Raptors are riding 3 straight wins and should feel good at home with the rest advantage. The Raptors comfortably beat the Mavs back in November. I lean toward the free bucket with the dinosaurs.
