Look to the spread and\/or total instead.<\/p>\n LEAN SPURS -7.5 (-105).<\/p>\n San Antonio has covered in 2 of its last 3 road games, while Dallas has failed to cover in each of its last 3 home games. The Spurs have also covered in their last 2 meetings with the Mavericks.<\/p>\n With so much uncertainty surrounding Dallas\u2019 roster, including who will play and how the new pieces will fit, San Antonio\u2019s chances of covering improve. This remains a lean, however, as the Mavericks are 6-3 ATS in their last 9 games.<\/p>\n BET UNDER 228.5 (-110).<\/p>\n The Under has hit in 8 of San Antonio\u2019s last 10 games, including all of its last 4 road contests. For Dallas, the Under is 4-1 in its last 5 games. This season, the Under has been the safer bet for both teams, sitting at 32-19 for the Spurs and 28-22 for the Mavericks. The Under has also hit in each of the last 2 meetings between these teams in Dallas.<\/p>\n For more sports betting picks and tips, check out SportsbookWire.com<\/a> and BetFTW<\/a>.<\/p>\n Follow SportsbookWire on Twitter\/X<\/a> and like us on Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n Access more NBA coverage:<\/p>\n HoopsHype<\/a> | Celtics Wire<\/a> | Nets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Rockets Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Sixers Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Thunder Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Warriors Wire<\/a>\u00a0| LeBron Wire<\/a> |\u00a0Rookie Wire<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0List Wire<\/a><\/p>\n Our team of savvy editors independently handpicks all recommendations.
