The big news for this game is that Luka Doncic (heel) is out for the Mavericks. Jaden Hardy (ankle), who can be a potent scorer off the bench, is also out. The Clippers are one of the best defensive teams in the league and are 7-4 ATS on the road. With Doncic out, I like the Clippers to at least keep this game close enough to cover.

DraftKings. Norman Powell has cleared this line in 13/19 games with James Harden, averaging 23.4 points per game this season. Now he gets a strong matchup against the Mavericks who play at the seventh fastest pace, and allow the 9th most spot up points per game (Powell’s preferred playtype in the half court).
