Dallas is one of the hottest teams in the league and featuring one of its most exciting players. Dirk who?
New Orleans has its challenges but every game brings up this much closer to the debut of Zion Williamson.
I never would have thought that this one could be so much of a mismatch on paper with Dallas on the road.
Dallas Mavericks
Dallas is playing as well as anyone in the league right now. They have won 7 of 8 as they seem to have found the right formula to win with.
That formula is not an easy one for other teams to copy though because it involved a steady dose of Luka Doncic. It works though, they just dealt the Lakers a home loss.

You have to round up on rebounds and assists but Luka is averaging 30/10/10 as a second-year player. The amazing thing is the way his scoring has spiked given how much he is distributing and the fact that he has just nudged his three-point shooting up. He is not on fire from deep.
The only downside to Luka’s dominance is that it appears Kristaps Porzingis is now more of a decoy than anything else. His presence might be helping Doncic though.
Against the Lakers, they got some big contributions from Delon Wright and Justin Jackson. I like Wright’s game with Luka’s because he can make some shots and defends smaller players with his length.
Jackson was drafted to be a shooter but it has taken some time for him to find his game. He is making 46% of his three though and that plays well with anyone. If he can keep that up this team is dangerous as they need more guys who can score to give Luka space.
New Orleans Pelicans
The Pelicans have lost five in a row and the last three by 5 points or less. They are trying to figure things out but the effort is always there.

There is a lot to like about this group but it seems mismatched at the moment. I have always liked Jrue Holiday’s game but he is a guy who needs the ball in his hands a lot to be effective. He is not a catch and shoot guy.
Neither is Lonzo Ball, who is a strong defender, rebounder and distributor but useless on offense if he is not creating for others. Ball is just not a good fit when Holiday is on the floor but they are starting them together. It is not the only reason the team is losing but it is not helping. .
The Pels do not have a lot of size which is something that Dallas can really exploit. Porzingis is over 7 feet and sometimes they play him like a small forward. New Orleans needs to own the backboards more to have some success.

Free Dallas Mavericks vs. New Orleans Pelicans NBA Prediction:
The Mavs are so much fun right now and I don’t want it to stop. They are also a nice bet even on the road as they are the better team.
I am not sure what the Pelicans can really do about Luka. Nobody else has found an answer lately.
