Hardy caught the attention of the league with his impressive performance in March. He scored 20 or more points in six games and showed that he can be a key player for Dallas. Yet, this is crunch time for the Mavericks, who are on the outside looking in for the play-in round of the postseason. Expect Hardy’s minutes to diminish until Dallas is officially eliminated from playoff contention.

SideStarz strikes again! All kidding aside, I am surprised this game is a pick'em considering Miami is 25-14 at home, while the Mavs are 15-24 on the road. The Heat are also close to full strength and despite Bam Adebayo being listed as questionable, most reports tentatively expect him to play. Give me the home team who are treating this as a playoff game where the Mavs are on the brink of completely imploding.
