Mavs Reveal Injury Status for Kyrie Irving & Luka Doncic vs. Warriors
Luka Doncic O/U 9.5 Assists: Over
This comes secondhand with hitting the under on Doncic's points odds for the night. Doncic has dished out 10+ assists in three of the last four games and six of the last eight. Take the over.
Steph Curry O/U : 4.5 3PM: Over
Curry has struggled shooting over the last three games, hitting just 25.0 percent from downtown. It's only a matter of time before Curry finds his groove from outside. Look for him to do just that against the Mavs.
