Mavericks vs. Clippers Odds & Betting Predictions - April 6, 2025

The Clippers and Mavericks have a back-to-back baseball series here and I would expect Kawhi Leonard to sit this one out. While it’s possible Kawhi plays in both games I find it highly unlikely given they can win this game without him. Harden is averaging 22.4 points per game this season and even though the Mavericks should have Anthony Davis for this game, if anything it means this spot should be a bit more competitive to raise Harden’s minutes floor. Harden’s scoring has been inconsistent; however, there is plenty of opportunity here for Harden against a relatively weak Mavericks’ defense. Considering the Clippers are desperately trying to avoid the Play-In, this is a game where Harden should get as much run as he can if it’s close.
