Spurs game on tv in dallas

Meanwhile, San Antonio didn't have too much trouble with the Sacramento Kings at home on Wednesday as they won San Antonio's success was spearheaded by the efforts of point guard Dejounte Murray , who had 26 points and seven assists in addition to six boards, and power forward Thaddeus Young , who had 17 points and eight assists along with five rebounds. Barring any buzzer beaters, Dallas is expected to win a tight contest. True fans might be the only ones betting on them, currently ATS, to cover the spread.

This is expected with such a young team lacking a true superstar closer. Still, San Antonio's defense has been encouraging to begin the season, and the Mavericks haven't been great offensively 24th in offensive rating. Luka Doncic is always going to get his, so this one will come down to how well the Spurs can close out on shooters like Tim Hardaway Jr and Dorian Finney-Smith.
