NBA Betting Tips: 03 March

There’s NBA action to look forward to on Friday morning, and as always, Justin Simelane has prepared his betting tips for three matches. Feel free to take his tips and use them on your bet slip.

03 March 02:00 Washington Wizards v Toronto Raptors

The Raptors are playing wonderful basketball right now and it’s not surprising that they are not the underdogs for this game. But I love a good underdog pick and the Wizards are the team to go for here.

In Toronto’s last 10 away when going against the spread they are 2-8 if they win it’s a close margin. The Wizards average more points per game and with Porzingis returning its a huge booster for them here, give them a nice spread with value.

Suggested Bet: Washington Wizards +10

03 March 03:30 San Antonio Spurs v Indiana Pacers

The Spurs got a surprise win in their last game when they beat the Utah Jazz, ending their 16-game losing streak. But I don’t see them winning this one, and there’s very good value on the Pacers. The Pacers are coming from a win against the Mavericks and they were underdogs with odds of 4, now the Mavericks have a way better defence than the Spurs.

Too many San Antonio Players are listed as doubtful heading into this game, while the Pacers are available and healthy. Take Tyrese to lead his side to four wins in 6.

Suggested Bet: Indiana Pacers ML

03 March 02:30 Dallas Mavericks v Philadelphia 76ers

There is one bet to take here and that is the under. Dallas has not been playing good basketball but when they play against good teams, they play much better defence and their style of play is even slower. Now the 76ers are hitting the unders right now, their last 4 have been wonderful for betting on the under.

Both teams here are outside of the top 10 when it comes to points per game and the Sixers are playing back-to-back so some players will be battling fatigue and I don’t see them being explosive. Take the under here.

Suggested Bet: Under 230
