Mavericks vs. Bulls Picks

Point Spread Pick for Mavericks vs. Bulls

  • Dallas Mavericks to cover. (4 Units)

The Mavericks have the edge here because they’re playing well offensively, scoring more than 112 points per game on the road, while making over 47 percent of their shots. Their ball movement has been good, and they rebound the ball well, grabbing more than 10 offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more scoring chances. They also do a good job of protecting the ball, and won’t give up many easy-scoring chances. The Bulls have one of the worst defenses in the league, and they’re giving up more than 118 points per game at home, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Mavericks. Take Dallas to cover the spread.

Over/Under Pick for Mavericks vs. Bulls

The Mavericks average 113.1 points per game. They play at the fourth-fastest pace in the league, averaging 106.4 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that is giving up 118 points per game at home.
