The road Trail Blazers enter this contest coming off of a 106-95 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. They entered that one as 10-point underdogs, and you could argue it was the most impressive win they’ve collected thus far on their road trip. (That’s saying something considering the team went viral twice with game-winners against Phoenix and Miami.)
The home Mavericks are coming off of a 113-105 road loss to the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavs were favored in that one by 5.5, but the quick road trip proved to be a struggle with the team going 0-2 both straight up and against the spread.
On the year, the Trail Blazers are 10-2 ATS with a covering streak of three straight.
The Mavericks are 3-7-1 ATS on the season coming off those two ATS losses.
Portland Trail Blazers
As of this writing on Thursday night, the Blazers’ injury report lists the following as questionable or day-to-day: Jerami Grant, Jusuf Nurkic, Keon Johnson.
Justise Winslow and Shaedon Sharpe are listed as probable.
The Trail Blazers so far this season average 109.1 points per game. That number puts the team in the No. 23 spot in the Association.
Looking at the advanced numbers, Portland posts 109.2 points per 100 possessions—a number that slots them in at 16th for Offensive Efficiency.
Defensively, the Trail Blazers are giving up 106.6 points per contest. So far in 2022-23, that number is good enough for No. 3, putting them behind only the No. 2 Milwaukee Bucks and No. 1 Phoenix Suns.
In terms of Defensive Efficiency, this group allows 106.4 points per 100 possessions. Across 30 teams, they rank 5th in that category.
Dallas Mavericks

The Mavericks on the year are scoring 109.9 points per game and 110.1 points per 100 possessions. Those numbers slot them in at 22nd and 11th, respectively.
Defensively, Dallas allows 106.7 points per night on average, placing them in 4th place directly behind the No. 3 Trail Blazers.
In terms of Defensive Efficiency, Dallas gives up 108 points per 100 possessions—a number that puts the team in 12th, but this time seven spots behind Portland.

Free Portland Trail Blazers vs. Dallas Mavericks NBA Prediction:
The Blazers’ expansive injury list would be ominous if it weren’t for the team already finding success on this road trip swapping in and out injured rotation players.
Portland has proved this season it’s a lot more than Dame Time, even in the clutch.
Keep an eye on the status of Portland’s injured players ahead of this one to inform your decision, but operating under the assumption many of the guys on the list play (as they have during the road trip), Portland is my pick both against the spread and straight up.
