Game 1: Sacremento Kings @ Dallas Mavericks (-5.5, -115), 7:10 p.m. EST
Tonight's game in Dallas features two of the most impressive teams against the record in the NBA. Sacremento is the best ATS team in the league overall (18-9-1), while Dallas is the second-best ATS team in the league overall (17-10). But there are a few key differences that seem to look favorably upon the Mavericks at home.
Luka Doncic (17.8 PPG, 6.8 RPG, 4.5 APG) has shown he's not afraid of the moment!

The Mavericks are the NBA's best ATS team at home (12-3), and the NBA's second-best ATS team as a home favorite (6-2). The Kings are an impressive 7-4-1 ATS following a loss this season, but the Mavericks are even better as the NBA's best ATS record following a loss at 9-2, covering 81.8 percent of spreads.
Game 2: Philadelphia Eagles @ Los Angeles Rams (-13.5, +100), 8:20 p.m. EST
With the Eagles needing to win all three of their remaining games and also have the Dallas Cowboys lose all three of their remaining games on the season, it seems that Philadelphia has practically been eliminated from the playoffs. Not to mention their star QB Carson Wentz has been officially ruled out of Sunday's game with back spasms.

On the other hand, the Rams are still playing for home-field advantage with serious hopes of avoiding another potential trip to New Orleans in the playoffs. So, LA is likely to have its foot on the gas pedal over a deflated Eagles team Sunday night.
