Franz Wagner is primed for a standout performance against the Dallas Mavericks, making the Over on his combined points and rebounds a compelling play. The young forward has been on a tear, averaging 15.6 points and 5.4 rebounds in his last five away games. Notably, he's found extra motivation when facing the Mavericks, averaging 17.6 points in their recent matchups. With an impressive hit rate of 19 out of his last 20 away games surpassing this 17.5 line, it's clear he thrives on the road. Moreover, Wagner's expected stat value of 22.76 paints a picture of his potential to exceed this threshold comfortably.

All signs point to him delivering a performance that not only meets but exceeds expectations. Bet on the Over; it just feels right.
