The Atlanta Hawks will head to the American Airlines Center to face the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA on Wednesday night. The Mavs (37-39) are ninth in the Western Conference, while the Hawks (36-39) are eighth in the East. Let’s get into the match prediction.

The Dallas Mavericks were building up some momentum with four wins in five games, but they were far from their best on Monday when they went down to the lowly Nets 113-109 at home.

No Dallas player managed to reach 20 points in the defeat, while they also blew a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter. As a team, they shot 47% from the field and 10 of 30 from long range. 

The Mavs are averaging 114.9 points per game this season (12th in the league), but they allow 115.1 PPG (17th overall).

Meanwhile, the Atlanta Hawks have now lost three of their last four games, with the most recent defeat coming last night at home to the Portland Trail Blazers by a scoreline of 127-113. 

Despite Trae Young putting up 29 points and 15 assists, and Dyson Daniels contributing 22 points, Atlanta shot just 44% from the field and converted only seven of 32 attempts from the three-point line.

The Hawks are still a top-five side in terms of points scored per game (117.8), but they are a bottom-five team for points against (119.5 PPG).
