NBA standings: Bucks vs Mavericks prediction and preview 

The Dallas Mavericks have bounced back from the poor start to the season to put them into playoff contention in the jam-packed Western Conference. The Mavs are currently seventh in the standings, with a 28-22 record, two games behind the Portland Trail Blazers. Dallas will be welcoming the Bucks at home after a shock defeat against the Houston Rockets. The Mavericks stumbled to a 102-93 defeat, despite the best efforts from Kristaps Porzingis and Luka Doncic who combined for 46 points on the night. Dallas have won seven of their last 10 games and will fancy their chances on Thursday night. 

Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks' hopes for an Eastern Conference top seed were dealt a major blow last time out after their defeat to the Golden State Warriors. Bucks remain third in the Eastern Conference NBA standings, three games behind the Brooklyn Nets, having won only six of their last 10 games. Milwaukee fell to a 122-121 defeat against Warriors, despite the best efforts of Jrue Holiday and Khris Middleton, who scored 57 points combined. Both teams will be looking to bounce back from their respective defeats which should set up a highly entertaining Thursday night. The Bucks are favourites but will be wary of the threats posed by Dallas.
