NBA Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions for Wednesday: Mavericks vs. Suns (10/19)

Following a shallow two-game slate on Tuesday, the NBA is officially back on Wednesday with 12 games in total. As things get underway, all teams are on the same playing field for the last time this season, as all want to get out to a fast start.

I dive into three games I like for Wednesday. And here’s a closer look at Mavericks vs. Suns.

NBA Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions for Wednesday: Mavericks vs. Suns

Mavericks +4.5 | -110 at DK Sportsbook
While you can’t draw much from a three-game preseason slate, the Mavericks looked sharp from inside and outside as Luka Doncic looks to take another step forward this season. The addition of Christian Wood should provide them with more depth, and if head coach Jason Kidd decides he can trust him, should continue right away.

As for the Suns, the defense looks improved, but depth is once again a concern with little in the way of proven talent coming off the bench this season. Already considered a top team in the West, I don’t expect this game to mean as much for the Suns as it does for the Mavs, and I think we see a tight game in the fourth quarter, so give me the points.
