Nets vs Mavericks NBA Preview
PRO projects Mavericks power forward P.J. Washington for 5.58 rebounds tonight, a nice 21.6% edge against the market when compared to his 7.5 line.
In his last game against the Rockets, Washington grabbed seven boards, and in five of his 10 games in November, he went under this 7.5 line.
The Nets have lost 17 times already this season, and in their last four losses, the score margins have been 13, 12, 17, and 13 points.
If this game ends up being a blowout win for Dallas, Washington might get some early rest and fewer opportunities to reach this figure.
Fade him tonight on his rebounds line against the Nets.
