📡 SBR Intel: Warriors vs. Mavericks Player Props Today

My Warriors vs. Mavericks player props today include De'Anthony Melton Over 15.5 points (-120) as my NBA best bet. Melton faces a Mavericks defense ranked fifth-worst in defensive efficiency recently. My top NBA picks today also include Cooper Flagg Under 0.5 three-pointers made (+178), as the Warriors allow the eighth-fewest 3-point attempts in the league.

De'Anthony Melton Over 15.5 points (-120)

I find it hard to believe that the Mavericks are taking the rest of this season seriously, given how poorly they're playing defensively. Dallas is ranked fifth-worst in the NBA in defensive efficiency over the last three games, allowing 129 or more points in each outing.

Meanwhile, Melton has attempted a median of 14.5 field goals per game since the All-Star break and will likely lead the Warriors in shot attempts tonight for a third straight game. DraftKings lists Melton Over 15.5 points at -120, but this bet is good up to -145 on the best sports betting sites.

Cooper Flagg has the second-shortest odds to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award.

Cooper Flagg Under 0.5 three-pointers made (+178)

I think it's pretty obvious that Flagg will have to work on his 3-point shot in the offseason. He's shooting just 28.4% from deep, and now he faces a Warriors squad allowing the eighth-fewest 3-point attempts per game (35.7) in the NBA.

The only thing Flagg has to play for at this point is trying to catch Kon Knueppel in the Rookie of the Year race - shooting and missing more 3-pointers won't help his odds. Flagg Under 0.5 three-pointers made is +178 at FanDuel, but I would play it up to +150 on the best NBA betting sites.

💡 How I'm betting Warriors vs. Mavericks

I've allocated 1.76 units for this game - or 1.76% of my bankroll - which is slightly less than I would usually risk on two NBA player props. While I'm confident in both of these bets, they're not priced far from where I'd set them.

I'm also placing a bet with less than a 50% chance of winning - Flagg Under 0.5 three-pointers made (+178) - so I risked less on that wager.
