Dallas Mavericks vs Houston Rockets Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Bill Christy in NBA Picks

It will be a battle of the Texas squads when the Dallas Mavericks take on the Houston Rockets Sunday. The Mavs currently are holding the final playoff spot in the West while the Rockets are fighting the Warriors for the last spot in the play-in tournament. The Mavs have won 6 straight games, including back-to-back road wins over the Sacramento Kings. Luka Doncic picked up 2 triple-doubles during the win streak and missed a 4th last game by falling 1 rebound short. Kyrie Irving has been averaging 24.8ppg during the same stretch. While they have been playing some strong basketball, the Rockets have arguably been playing even better. Winners of their last 11 games, the Rockets are currently 13-1 during the month of March and have breathed life into their own hopes to make the play-in tournament. In their latest win, 101-100 over the Jazz, they were able to get the job done despite only 8 points from their bench. Jalen Green led the team with 34 points while Fred VanVleet added 22 points and Amen Thompson picked up his 4th double-double in his last 8 games. This will be the 3rd meeting between the 2 with both winning a game each prior.

Our Dallas Mavericks vs Houston Rockets Prediction

               Although the Rockets are arguably the hottest team in the league right now, we believe this spread has been exaggerated too low. Dallas has had success against Houston in their last 8 meetings and have been playing strong ball themselves recently. The 1-2 punch of Luka and Kyrie should be too much for the young Rockets to handle. And as they say, all good things must come to an end. And so shall the Rockets win streak.
