Dallas Mavericks at Phoenix Suns Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
Both teams are out of the post-season and this contest bares little significance for either party. The Suns have a chance to own the worst record in the Western Conference and such would benefit them with snagging an excellent chance at a top draft lottery pick. Nevertheless, the Suns pulled off an impeccable 120-99 victory at home against the Oklahoma City as a nine-point pooch. The Mavericks enter off a pummeling sustained by their cross-state rival, the San Antonio Spurs.

Dallas Mavericks at Phoenix Suns Prediction
Dallas’ offense remains a NBA-worst 30th overall in the scoring department but that can be aided by a Phoenix side that is known for an offense-first approach to the game where their defense is typically left at home. But that’s not why we like the Mavs here. The assessment of this market is what we look for in a fade: an overreaction. The Suns come in off a very impressive win in what may be one of their most impressive wins this season. Dallas was absolutely obliterated on its own court so as a result the stock on both teams has gone in opposite directions. Let’s not forget, Dallas opened with points to spot and there was a viable reason for this. Now as a result of a huge reaction from the public due to varying results of both teams, we can take the Mavs back with a point and less juice to boot. Fade the Suns.
