*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Friday, January 24th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Saturday, January 25th.
Boston Celtics
Coming off the worst loss of the season (by point differential) the Celtics continue to look like they have been hampered by the dog days of Winter and the weariness of what winning a title does in terms of lack of time off.
To wit, Boston who began the season with a 22-6 record has slipped dramatically in the last 17 matches with a 9-8 record. Specifically, their main issue is closing out games in clutch time.

Celtics Stats
Boston ranks second offensively (119.1) and fifth defensively (109.3) while registering a net differential of plus +9.7 that ranks third overall.
In terms of the Celtics’ performance against the spread, they perform below average with a 17-27-1 record through 45 matches.
Celtics Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Derrick White, PG (questionable — knee)
Dallas Mavericks
Kudos to the Mavs who remain competitive despite missing Luka Doncic and Dereck Lively. The win versus the Thunder should help motivate the Mavericks given they have now beaten them three times (notably OKC has lost just 8 times this season).
Depth remains an issue, however, so keep an eye on the Mavs leading up to the February 6th trade deadline (Jimmy Butler will land somewhere and it could be Dallas).
Mavericks Stats
Dallas ranks eighth offensively (114.7) and is tied for 11th in defensive rating (111.6) with a net differential of plus +3.1, ranking in a tie for ninth overall.
The Mavericks perform in the middle with a 22-22-1 record against the spread through 45 contests.
Mavericks Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Luka Doncic, PG (OUT indefinitely — calf strain)
- Dwight Powell, C (questionable — hip)
- Jaden Hardy, G (questionable — ankle)
- Naji Marshall, SF (OUT — illness)
- Klay Thompson, SG (questionable ankle)
- Dereck Lively II, C (OUT — ankle)

Free Boston Celtics vs. Dallas Mavericks NBA Prediction:
After the loss in LA, Jaylen Brown spoke about the team’s struggles. He notes they know they have dropped games they shouldn’t but their focus remains gearing up as the team heads to the postseason to defend their title.
The Mavs likely have similar thoughts – – to get back to the finals. And while their current seventh seed isn’t ideal getting a revenge win versus the team that beat them for the title would give them ample inspiration moving forward.
That said, I’ll take the points but believe the Mavs come up just short of the win.
