NBA Betting Tips: 08 February

Don’t miss the NBA tomorrow morning, there are a plenty of matches to bet on, and as usual Justin Simelane has prepared his best bets for you. Feel free to add his tips to your bet slip.

08 Feb 02:00 Charlotte Hornets vs Toronto Raptors

This is a game between two teams at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, this will not be a good game to watch but I am going with the slightly better team and that’s the Raptors. The Hornets will be without their best player, Lamelo Ball, and who will likely carry them is Miles Bridges, but he is not enough. The Raptors are also slightly better defensively, with the Hornets allowing a staggering 120 points per game. Back RJ and Scottie Barnes to have a good game here.

Suggested Bet: Toronto Raptors ML

08 Feb 02:00 Washington Wizards vs Cleveland Cavaliers

Right now, the Cavs are a team you just have to bet on, hence their moneyline odds have become what they are. These two teams have already met this season, and the Cavs won both games and covered their spread. I see another blowout here by Cleveland, the Wizards are no match for them. The Cavs are covering their spreads by an average of 10 points, so back them with confidence here.

Suggested Bet: Cleveland Cavaliers (-6.5)

08 Feb 05:00 Los Angeles Clippers vs New Orleans Pelicans

Kawhi Leonard is currently performing at an MVP level and the same will happen here. Kawhi is currently averaging; 27ppg, 7rpb and 4,2 assists per game, he has a field goal percentage of 53.3%. The Clippers play in LA here and when they play at home, they’re even more of a force to be reckoned with. The Clippers have been the best team in the West for a while and now occupy the top spot in the standings, they won’t let it go easily. Take them to win.

Suggested Bet: Clippers ML
