Dallas Mavericks vs. New York Knicks: Injury report

The Mavs ruled out Tim Hardaway Jr. (foot), Frank Ntilikina (illness), Marquese Chriss (knee), and Theo Pinson (finger). Jalen Brunson is listed as questionable on the NBA’s official injury report with a foot injury, but there was optimism after Tuesday’s practice that JB would be able to return after just a one-game absence.

The Knicks ruled out Nerlens Noel (foot), Derrick Rose (ankle), Cam Reddish (shoulder), Quentin Grimes (knee), Obi Toppin (hamstring), Kemba Walker (not with team), and Luka Samanic (G League) for Wednesday’s game. Mitchell Robinson is listed as questionable with an illness.

Fans should be sure to check social media just before tipoff for the latest on Brunson and Robinson and for any last-minute news that becomes available.

Dallas Mavericks vs. New York Knicks odds, spread, over/under

According to WynnBet, the Mavericks are 8.0-point favorites as they host the New York Knicks on March 9. They are minus-360 on the moneyline, and the game’s over/under sits at 215.5.

The line for Luka to grab 45-plus points plus rebounds sits at plus-120. He had 51 in the Mavericks win over the Jazz, and the 23-year-old superstar needs to takeover more on the glass as the team goes small.

Dallas Mavericks vs. New York Knicks predictions

The Knicks dominated the first matchup of the season back on Jan. 12, and they have had the Mavericks number during Luka’s tenure in Dallas. The Mavs have won just two of their last seven meetings against the Knicks and have not defeated them in Dallas since Jan. 25, 2017.

Luka Doncic changes that against the shorthanded Knicks on Wednesday night. He goes for a 32-point triple-double to lift the Mavericks to a hard-fought victory. Julius Randle scores 35 for the Knicks as New York falls just short at the AAC.

The Dallas Mavericks have just 17 games left in the regular season, and they all count as the team looks to move up in the standings. Expect Luka to put on a show as he attempts to make it six straight wins for the Mavs. Do not miss it.
