New York and Dallas meet on ESPN as Jalen Brunson and Kyrie Irving headline this matchup.

Dallas is 10-8 this year and has won five of its past six games despite injuries to Luka Doncic, Klay Thompson and Dereck Lively. Thompson and Lively are expected to play, but Doncic is out for a fourth straight game. The Mavericks are 2-1 in their last three games with an OT loss to the Heat (123-118) in Miami. This is the fourth game in six days for Dallas.

New York is 10-7 and has won five of their previous six games, but unlike Dallas, they have been healthy the entire time. The only loss for the Knicks came surprisingly in Utah (121-106). New York is playing its fourth game in seven days, so the Knicks have a slight rest advantage here in the first meeting of the season.

NBC Sportsbook Best Bet

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes Jalen Brunson getting over 32.5 points + assists against the Mavericks:

“Jalen Brunson has been on quite the run lately as the Knicks’ primary ball handler. In the last seven games, Brunson has recorded seven or more assists every game and has scored at least 23 points in six of those games. During this run, Brunson averaged 25.8 points and 10.1 assists per game (35.9 P+A).

In the last three games without Luka Doncic, the Mavericks have allowed 120.7 points per game (25th), 30.7 assists per game (25th), 24.0 free throw attempts (25th) and 37.6% from three (22nd). . Brunson has averaged 20.3 potential assists and 18.0 field goal attempts per game in his last three appearances.

With or without Donic, Dallas hasn’t played good defense this season and I don’t expect it to start here. Brunson used to play in Dallas and this is a nationally televised game to keep the Knicks’ hot streak alive. I like Brunson over 32.5 points + assists up to 33.5.”

Here are the best bets our model predicts for the Knicks and Mavericks:

· Moneyline: NBC Sports finds confidence in taking Dallas on the ML (+150)
