Mavs vs. Knicks Line Off the Board Heading Into Sunday Morning

The Mavs vs. Knicks line was -2 Dallas Sunday morning after being off the board overnight.  (check back here to get the line once released)

There was still uncertainty as to whether Carmelo Anthony would be returning on Sunday after sitting out six straight games with a groin injury.

Baron Davis, who has been out with a herniated disk in his back but looks likely to return for Sunday’s Mavs vs. Knicks matchup.

"He's close. He could go, I think he could play tomorrow," Knicks head coach Mike D'Antoni said. "We'll see, but I want to work him a little bit gradually."

The 20-11 Mavericks will get their first look at Knicks rookie sensation Jeremy Lin Sunday. 

Lin scored 26 points but his turnovers nearly doubled his five assists, and the Knicks lost for the first time with Lin as a starter, ending a seven-game win streak and falling back below .500.

Lin was down on himself following the loss.

"Just a lackluster effort on my part coming out and careless with the ball, and so nine turnovers is obviously never going to get it done from your primary ballhandler," Lin said. "It's on me in terms of taking care of the ball and also the game in general.

"I think everyone wants to credit me for this last seven games, then I definitely deserve this one on my shoulders and so that's fine with me."

Live betting will be available on this game.
