The Mavericks are looking to bounce back from an embarrassing loss to the Nets on Monday. Their opportunity will come against the Hawks on Wednesday night, without starters Jalen Johnson and Clint Capela. Dallas will have a major size advantage, as they did Monday, and could receive even more depth if Dereck Lively makes his return. It should be a Mavericks paint party, but Atlanta has the shooting to take advantage of the Mavericks’ insistence on scoring inside the line.

O/U 240.5 (-110/-110)
Mavs ML: -166
Odds up to date as of 1:30 PM CST from DraftKings
Dallas should win this game. They are historically very good at bouncing back under Jason Kidd and against a smaller and depleted Atlanta team, they have a great opportunity to do just that. Take Dallas to win (-166).
Player Props
Dyson Daniels over 14.5 points (-110)
Naji Marshall to get 20+ points + rebounds (+125)
Daniels had 17 against the Mavericks earlier this year and is the embodiment of the player archetype that kills the Mavericks. Marshall has taken 14+ shots in three of the last four games and will be able to take advantage of a soft Hawks defense, especially in the non-restricted area paint.
Play of the Day
Under 240.5 points (-110)
This line is absurdly high for a team that just has not scored with ease since Anthony Davis came back. They have not gone over this line in any game Davis has played and won’t tonight.
