Basketball Betting Lines

02/27/2007 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The NBA-best Dallas Mavericks try to extend their winning streak to 13 games when they face the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight at the Target Center.

All-Star Dirk Nowitzki scored 27 points and grabbed eight rebounds to pace the surging Mavericks to their 12th consecutive victory, a 110-87 rout of the Atlanta Hawks on Monday at American Airlines Center.

Jason Terry scored 21 points and Josh Howard finished with 20, but left in the fourth quarter after spraining his right ankle. Veteran Jerry Stackhouse scored 19 points and dished out nine assists, as the Mavericks extended their club-record home winning streak to 20 contests.

Howard is questionable for tonight's contest in Minnesota. He is averaging 19.3 points and 7.1 rebounds per game this season.

The Mavericks are an impressive 20-6 on the road this season. After tonight's game, they will return home for a three-game stand. Dallas, which is an incredible 27-3 at home in 2006-07, is scheduled to host Cleveland, Orlando and New Jersey on the upcoming homestand.

Minnesota, meanwhile, plays the fourth of a five-game homestand. It is 1-2 so far on the current stand.

All-Star Kevin Garnett scored 26 points and grabbed 17 rebounds as the Timberwolves downed the Washington Wizards, 98-94, on Sunday at the Target Center.

Ricky Davis finished with 27 points for the Timberwolves, who snapped a three- game losing streak. Rookie Randy Foye scored 13 points and dished out eight assists for Minnesota, which beat Washington at home for the seventh consecutive time.

The Timberwolves are 17-11 at home this season. They will host the Utah Jazz on Friday in the finale of the homestand.

This is the third of four meetings between Dallas and Minnesota this season. Dallas won the two previous contests. The Mavericks are scheduled to host the Timberwolves on April 11th at American Airlines Center.

Dallas, though, has lost three of its last five at Minnesota. The Mavericks have won three in a row in the series.
