The Dallas Mavericks odds to be back among the contenders for the NBA championship are looking very high, as Luka Doncic will be looking to improve on his MVP-caliber season, and the entire roster hopes to carry last season’s chemistry and success into this upcoming season.
If all goes well for them this NBA season, this team could end up being the legitimate favorite to win the championship.

The Mavs’ NBA schedule begins with a matchup against the Phoenix Suns. This will be an exciting rematch of the Western Conference Semifinals, as the Mavs dropped the Suns in seven games.
Doncic vs. Booker
The key matchup in this NBA game will come down to Luka Doncic and Devin Booker and how they can get their teammates involved while providing the scoring load.
The Mavericks odds of winning this game are quite high, as head coach Jason Kidd knows how to coach his team to victory on both ends of the floor.

- Phoenix Suns
- Memphis Grizzlies
- New Orleans Pelicans
- Brooklyn Nets (twice)
- Oklahoma City Thunder
- Orlando Magic (twice)
- Utah Jazz
- Toronto Raptors

Doncic at the Stats

Dallas Mavericks 2022 Season Odds

Mavericks 2022 NBA Title Odds
Dallas Mavericks is right in the thick of things to win the championship, as they have a tremendous roster built around Luka Doncic.
They added Christian Wood over the offseason, as he’ll provide another excellent scoring option next to Doncic in the post and as a perimeter shooter.
Spencer Dinwiddie should emerge as the Sixth Man for this group, as he will provide a scoring punch and playmaking presence off the bench.
Great Shooters
Combine that with great shooters and defenders in:
- Dorian Finney-Smith
- Reggie Bullock
- Tim Hardaway Jr.
- Davis Bertans
- Maxi Kleber
This group has all the makings to be one of the deeper NBA teams in the league.
However, they’ll need Doncic to emerge as the leader in the toughest games of the season and take over games for the Mavs to emerge as a serious title contender rather than just a great regular-season team.
The pieces are all in place for this team to get to the Finals, though.
Dallas Mavericks Playoff Odds
It’s pretty much a formality that the Mavs get into the playoffs again this upcoming season. However, the jury is still out on how far they can actually go.

The Mavericks odds to win the Southwest Division are fairly strong, but they’ll have a ton of competition to finish at the top.
They’ll likely have to battle it out with the Memphis Grizzlies, as the New Orleans Pelicans also loom as a potential threat.
Dallas Mavericks Western Conference Championship Odds
The Mavs have a great shot at getting to the NBA Finals, but they’ll have a tall task on their hands if they want to achieve that goal.
They’ll have to get past teams like:
- Los Angeles Clippers
- Memphis Grizzlies
- Los Angeles Lakers
- Golden State Warriors
- Denver Nuggets
- Minnesota Timberwolves
- Phoenix Suns
- New Orleans Pelicans
To get out of the West. If the Mavs stay healthy, though, they’re easily among the favorites.
