How to make Suns vs. Mavericks picks

SportsLine’s model has simulated Mavs vs. Suns 10,000 times and is going Over on the total (227.5 points). These teams have met twice since the start of 2025, with both contests eclipsing the total. Each of the last two Mavs games have also gone over, and the team is coming off allowing 138 points in its last contest, which is the most Dallas has given up in a non-overtime game all season.

With those defensive struggles for Dallas, the Suns are projected to score 7 points more than their season average. Even with that, the Mavericks are forecasted to have more double-digit scorers (six) than Phoenix (five). The model calls for the total to be surpassed with points to spare, with the Over hitting in 51% of simulations.

It also says one side of the spread hits over 60% of the time. You can head to SportsLine to see the model’s NBA picks.
