MMBets: Road Opener for the Mavericks vs Phoenix
Mavericks Look to Start Season Strong
The Dallas Mavericks will tip off their 2023-24 season on Wednesday night against the Phoenix Suns, a rematch of last season's Western Conference semifinals.
The Mavs are coming off a disappointing playoff exit, losing to the Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference Finals.
They'll look to start the new season on a strong note against a Suns team that is also looking to bounce back from a disappointing playoff exit.
Suns Look to Bounce Back from Playoff Exit
The Suns lost to the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference semifinals last season, a disappointing end to a season that saw them finish with the best record in the league.
They'll look to start the new season on a strong note against a Mavericks team that is also looking to bounce back from a disappointing playoff exit.
The Suns are led by Devin Booker, Chris Paul, and Deandre Ayton, one of the most talented trios in the league.
Matchup to Watch: Luka Doncic vs Devin Booker
The matchup between Luka Doncic and Devin Booker will be one of the most closely watched matchups of the night.
Doncic is one of the most dynamic players in the league, while Booker is one of the best shooters in the league.
The two players are both capable of putting up big numbers, so this matchup could be one of the most exciting of the night.
Prediction
The Mavericks and Suns are both evenly matched teams, so this game could go either way.
The Mavericks have the home-court advantage, but the Suns have more experience in the playoffs.
I predict that the Mavericks will win a close game, 110-107.
