Thunder vs Mavericks predictions, picks
Justin Martinez: OKC 119, Dallas 114
Will Chet Holmgren suit up on the first night of a back-to-back after a grueling start to the season? Will Dallas rest any of its players on the second night of a back-to-back? That uncertainty makes this a tough game to predict, but I do know which team will have the best player on the floor. That’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder. He should continue his hot start to the season, and OKC’s defense should cause problems for a Dallas team that doesn’t have a traditional point guard. Give me the Thunder.
