Suns vs Mavericks Picks and Predictions: Bank on Booker (Covers.com)

NBA odds, picks, and predictions for the Phoenix Suns at Dallas Mavericks on March 5. NBA betting best bet and free pick analysis.

The bad blood between Booker and Doncic is also worth noting, as it adds an extra layer of competitiveness to the game. In fact, in the two games he has played with [Kevin Durant](https://www.covers.com/sport/basketball/nba/players/1998/kevin-durant), he has averaged an impressive 36 ppg. The Over/Under for this tilt is currently set at 232.5. This game could potentially be a first-round matchup in the playoffs, which makes it even more important for both teams to perform well. [Devin Booker](https://www.covers.com/sport/basketball/nba/players/384/devin-booker) is a scoring machine who has yet to show any signs of slowing down. The Mavericks are -1.5 favorites over the Suns as of this writing. The outcome of this game will likely come down to which duo makes a bigger impact. This game is likely to be a high-scoring affair, which plays into the hands of someone like Booker, who excels in a fast-paced offensive game. While Dallas did slow down Booker in their December matchup, they can no longer rely on double teams to limit his scoring output due to the presence of Durant on the Suns' roster. This willingness to take shots will be an important factor in his ability to score over 26 points against the Mavericks. This is about sending a message before the playoffs in their fourth and final matchup of the season. Dallas has already claimed victory in two of the three matchups this season, but Phoenix is determined to turn the tables.

Phoenix is riding a two game streak with Durant in the line up whereas the Mavericks are coming off their first big win with both Irving and Luka Doncic in the line up. It’s the first time the two teams have matched up since Kyrie Irving was traded from the Nets to the Mavericks and Kevin Durant was traded from the Nets to the Suns just a few days later. His absence would give the Dallas chances a big boost seeing as they cannot protect the paint to save their lives.

Matt Moore previews how to bet Suns vs. Mavericks, including updated odds, picks & predictions for Sunday's game.

I like the Suns in this matchup. Still, the Mavericks have given up an opponent team total over in four of their last five games. The Mavericks will likely try sending doubles against Booker and Durant; that’s been their strategy vs. The Suns have held their past two opponents under their team total in both games. That’s in line with the fact that Dallas is just 10-18-2 ATS as a home favorite this season. This means that early in the game, Devin Booker is acting as facilitator, then shifting into scoring mode when Durant’s not on the floor.
