Mavericks vs Suns prediction

Mavericks vs Suns best bet: Devin Booker Under 6.5 assists (-130)

Good luck justifying any Over bet in this matchup between the tanking Dallas Mavericks and the Phoenix Suns, as the latter is effectively locked into the No. 7 spot in the Western Conference and will thus host the more enviable Play-In game. The Suns are two games clear of the Clippers for the No. 7 seed, and with only three games remaining, Los Angeles’s pipe dreams are essentially dead.

Phoenix should still want to win, but on the second night of a back-to-back, lessening Devin Booker’s workload would make more sense. He played 38:32 last night in a deflating loss to Houston. The Suns’ ceiling is low, but it would crater if Booker is anything but at his best in the postseason.

Even when playing legitimate minutes, Booker has fallen short of this modest prop in two of his last three games and nine of his last 14 games.

That is the vital overlap in these difficult betting situations of the final week of the regular season: Find a prop bet that would be expected to cash in a regular situation, and then it will be emphasized if minutes are indeed wonky.

Mavericks vs Suns same-game parlay

Let this vision be straightforward: An early Suns lead should spark diminished minutes from Booker. There is no need to stress him. The Suns have three winnable games ahead of them, and the required win or two should come. The Clippers have three losable games ahead of them, and the required loss or two should come. Phoenix can trust its hold of the No. 7 seed.

This counterintuitive same-game parlay is designed to suggest the Mavericks may let Cooper Flagg rack up the points in the second half to cement his Rookie of the Year award, and the Suns’ defense may allow a backdoor cover simply out of ambivalence.
