Dallas Mavericks vs. Washington Wizards: A Tale of Two Teams That Can’t Shoot
Date: November 9, 2025 | Time: 7:10 PM ET | Location: Washington, D.C.
The Setup:
The Dallas Mavericks (2-7) and Washington Wizards (1-8) are two teams that have mastered the art of defensive efficiency and offensive ineptitude. Together, they average a combined 221.1 points per game—9.4 points below the 230.5 total line. If this game were a Netflix show, it’d be titled “The Great Scoring Collapse.”
The Moneyline:
- Dallas (-154): The Mavericks are favored at -154, implying a 61% implied probability of winning. But remember, Dallas has lost 4 straight and scored fewer than 100 points in 3 of their last 5 games. They’re like a team that bets on itself and loses.
- Washington (+249): The Wizards (+249) are a 43% shot, but they’ve lost 7 in a row and are scoring 106.3 PPG. They’re the NBA’s version of a participation trophy.
The Spread (-4.5):
Dallas is -4.5 with odds of -110. The Mavericks’ offense is so anemic, they’d need to win by 5 just to prove they’re not a total disaster. Take Washington +4.5 (-110) and root for a Wizards upset.
The Total (230.5):
Under 230.5 (-110) is a lock. The combined scoring average is 221.1, and both teams’ lineups read like a list of injured players. Bet the Under and prepare for a game where the final score could fit on a snack-sized scorecard.
Player Props to Snub:
- P.J. Washington (PRA 30.5, Under -115): He’s averaged 27.5 PRA this season. The line’s a joke.
- Alex Sarr (29.5 PRA, Under -115): With a team that scores 106 PPG, Sarr’s 29.5 PRA is like betting on a snail to win a sprint.
- Kyshawn George (14.5 Pts, Under -110): George averages 13.3 PPG. The Under is a no-brainer.
The Verdict:
This game is a snoozefest. Take the Under 230.5 (-110) and enjoy the rare NBA spectacle where the crowd might actually cheer for a three-pointer.
Final Prediction:
Dallas 102, Washington 98. The game ends with fans checking their watches, wondering if the clock stopped at 4:00 or if time travel is possible.
“If you want to see a real thriller, watch paint dry. This game’s less exciting than a spreadsheet audit.”
