Hail, Caesar? Preseason Las Vegas projections have the Mavericks' win total improving modestly in 2019-2020

Oddsmakers at Las Vegas casinos are really good at their job.

If you've ever lost money to them, you already know this.

So, whenever the latest round of projections for your favorite team gets released, fans have license to give the bookie some cautionary credence.

And in their latest over/under win total projections for the 2019-2020 NBA season, Vegas oddsmakers are telling Mavericks fans to pump the breaks on the Kristaps Porzingis hype.

Yes, the 7-3 All-Star center/forward will be teaming up with NBA Rookie of the Year Luka Doncic. But, in a Western Conference that grew deeper during NBA free agency, oddsmakers see only modest improvement for the Mavericks.
