Golden State Warriors vs Dallas Mavericks predictions, preview, and betting tips – 13/11/2024

There are many interesting games scheduled for tonight in the NBA and one of the more exciting ones is the one Golden State Warriors and Dallas Mavericks, scheduled for Wednesday, 03:00 AM BST.

With that in mind, I've got a few Golden State Warriors vs Dallas Mavericks predictions for you, along with my full Warriors vs Mavs preview, including team form, injuries and other news, as well as the latest Warriors vs Mavericks odds.

So, let's take a closer look at this game and what we can expect from it.

Warriors vs Mavericks predictions

All odds for my Warriors vs Mavericks picks were taken from Paddy Power and are subject to change at any time.

Dallas Mavericks to win

While the Warriors have been impressive this season and they enter this game with a better record, I'm still not completely sold on them being this good. Meanwhile, the Mavs have lost their last two games by a total of three points, against good teams and away from home.

With that in mind, I can see the Mavericks pushing this game to crunch time and I can see things going their way this time around. Furthermore, Dallas have won three of their last four meetings with the Warriors, which is another reason why this is the first of my Warriors vs Mavs tips.

Kyrie Irving to record 25+ points

While it is still early in the season, this is arguably the best Irving we've seen in a while. So far, he's averaging 25.6 points per game and he's been shooting 53.9% from the field.

Irving has scored at least 25 points in five of his last seven games, including a 43-point outing in Denver a couple of nights ago, where he very nearly willed the Mavs to a win pretty much by himself. He also scored more than 25 points in two of the three games he played against the Warriors last season. So, Kyrie Irving to score at least 25 points in this game is my second Warriors vs Mavs prediction.

Draymond Green to record 6+ assists

While Draymond Green has recorded 6+ assist in just four of 10 games he played in this season, that is the final of my Warriors vs Mavs picks. Green has been playing lower minutes than earlier season, but he's still managed to stay impactful and he's averaged 5.1 assists per game this season.

Against the Thunder a couple of nights ago, Green notched 11 assists and against the Cavs in the game before he had 6 assists. This is important because it was against two red-hot teams and Green proved to me that he still has it in those games, so I'm backing him up tonight as well.

Golden State Warriors preview and latest news

After playing three teams with the best records in the league in a row and beating two of them, the Warriors are up for another tough game as they welcome Dallas Mavericks. The Warriors have been great this season and to the surprise of many, myself included, they look like one of the top teams in the league.

When it comes to team news, Andrew Wiggins is the only player listed on Golden State's injury list, although he is more likely to play than not.

The Warriors enter this match with a 8-2 record.

Warriors starting lineup: Curry, Melton, Wiggins, Green, Jackson-Davis

Dallas Mavericks preview and latest news

With three losses in their last four matches, the reigning Western Conference champions have struggled a bit lately. That being said, their last two losses were against the Suns and the Nuggets and both of them were decided by one possession, so the Mavs could've done better with a little bit of luck.

Meanwhile, Dante Exum is out with an injury, while Luka Doncic, PJ Washington, and Dereck Lively II are all listed as game-time decisions. This was the case for the team's last game against the Nuggets, when Doncic has ended up playing, while Washington and Lively set out the game.

The Mavericks enter this match with a 5-5 record.

Mavericks starting lineup: Irving, Doncic, Thompson, Marshall, Gafford
