Get set for an exciting Western Conference clash when the Denver Nuggets invade American Airlines Center for a matchup with the Dallas Mavericks.
Mavs guard Klay Thompson is coming off a 0-4 shooting night from downtown, and my Nuggets vs. Mavericks predictions expect Thompson to come roaring back today.
Nuggets vs Mavericks prediction
My best bet
Klay Thompson 4+ threes (+150 at bet365)
My analysis
The Dallas Mavericks won’t have Luka Doncic or Kyrie Irving this afternoon when they host the Denver Nuggets.
The future Hall of Famer drains 38% of his eight attempts from long range per night.
Thompson is coming off a 0-4 home stinker from downtown against the Trail Blazers.
He's knocked down 4+ triples in two of his last five and is averaging nearly three made threes per night at home. The Mavericks will need buckets from Thompson and I expect him to deliver.
Nuggets vs Mavericks same-game parlay
I like Thompson to score big, and knocking down four triples should take him past his scoring line of 14.5. He's cleared that number in three of his last five and since he can’t score all the buckets, I like Quintin Grimes to knock down a pair of threes.
Grimes has dropped 2+ triples in three of his last five. He’s a 40% shooter from downtown and has made 2+ in three of his last five at American Airlines Center.
