The Cleveland Cavaliers (29-4) head to Dallas to face the Mavericks (20-14) on Friday night, with tip-off set for 8:30 PM ET at the American Airlines Center.

Meanwhile, the Mavericks are listed at +205 on the moneyline, giving them an implied win probability of 32%.
For those interested in player props, Dereck Lively II's Points, Rebounds, and Assists market has gained traction among bettors. The prop total opened at Over 17.5 (-130) before moving to 18.5 (-105), suggesting sharp action on the Over.
As the Cavaliers look to extend their winning streak against a reeling Mavericks squad, this game shapes up to be a compelling battle between a surging team and one hoping to find its footing. Bettors will be keenly watching how both teams perform under these circumstances.
