DAL vs PHI Dream11 Match Prediction

 

DAL vs PHI Dream11: Philadelphia 76ers travel to take on Western Conference outfit Dallas Mavericks at American Airlines Center in the NBA regular-season match on Sunday morning (IST). Both the teams are without high-profile players, but the Sixers seemed to have more balance on their squad. How deep Sixers are was evident from the last two games as they played defeated Oklahoma City Thunder and Boston Celtics without Joel Embiid. The win over the Greens was more impressive as the defence and offence both came good on the day. The Sixers are now on a two-game winning run and improved 25-14 on the season.
Dallas Mavericks, meanwhile, lost 114-129 to Los Angeles Lakers in the last game. That was a big opportunity missed by the Mavericks as the Lakers were without Anthony Davis, but LeBron James came into his own and ended the game with a career-first 35 points and 16 assists (more than 15 assists). With that defeat, the Mavericks are now 2-5 in the last seven games, and 4-6 in the last 10 matches.

Grand League tips:

  • Dallas Mavericks’ Luka Doncic is the MVP candidate. He has been scoring heavily all season, scoring triple-double for fun. The 2019 NBA rookie of the year is somebody who guarantees points.
  • Ben Simmons will be a vital player for the Sixers due to the absence of Joel Embiid. He can execute his plans on both ends of the court. He is good enough to lead at least two or three Grand League teams.
  • Tobias Harris and Al Horford are also capable of making big and game-high contributions.
  • Mike Scott, Furkan Korkmazz, Justin Jackson and Trey Burke can be the best value for points.

Surely into football, kicked it for a while, and now beholding! Follows American sports, especially the NBA. And I believe Stephen Curry is under-rated as was Steven Gerrard.
