NBA Betting Tips: 07 April

There are plenty of NBA matches to bet on this week, and as usual, Justin Simelane has prepared his betting tips for three matches. Feel free to add his tips to your bet slip.

007 April 01:00 Orlando Magic v Cleveland Cavaliers

These two played two nights back in a game Cleveland won, but the Magic put up a good fight and could’ve won that game. Now this time around the Cavs have already cemented their spot on the log and will finish the season as the 4th seed. The Cavs have nothing to play for and will rest their key players here. Orlando will play a game with the same intensity as last time around, take Orlando to come out on top.

Suggested Bet: Orlando Magic ML

07 April 03:00 Utah Jazz v Oklahoma City Thunder

This is going to be a good game and should have drama. The Thunder know that they cannot afford to lose this game because Dallas Mavericks will steal their 10th spot on the log. Utah Jazz know their post-season hopes are not yet dead as they have OKC, Denver and Lakers as their remaining fixtures. But they need to win all their remaining 3 games for that to happen, which is unlikely considering their short-handed. The Jazz will be without 5 key players, this is a must-win game for the Thunder and they will take the opportunity.

Suggested Bet: Oklahoma City Thunder ML

07 April 04:00 Phoenix Suns v Denver Nuggets

The Nuggets are going to finish 1st in the West and this is the first time in their NBA history. They don’t desire a win from this game and will likely rest some players. The Suns are still undefeated in 7 games when Kevin Durant plays and this record will still be intact after this game. The Nuggets have been struggling on their defensive side lately, they have lost 3 of their previous 5. I’m taking the home team here.

Suggested Bet: Phoenix Suns ML
