NBA Betting Tips: 14 March

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

14 March 01:30 Atlanta Hawks v Minnesota Timberwolves

This is going to be a good game between teams who are both sitting on 8th in their respective conferences. Atlanta lost their last game because they did not defend well from the three and I see the same fate falling for this game.

Both sides are top ten when it comes to pace in the league with Minnesota moving up to 5th. This will be a high-scoring fest considering what’s at stake and I see the over coming here. Atlanta does not have a good defence, win or lose they allow in too many points, take the over.

Suggested Bet: Over 230

14 March 04:00 Golden State Warriors v Phoenix Suns

The Warriors are where they are on the standings because of their away form, which is terrible. But when they play at home, they can beat any team in the league. They are currently on a 7 game-winning streak at home and have won 11 of their last 12 home games.

Being without Kevin Durant is really a big blow for the Suns, we saw it when they played a 500+ team and they lost to the Kings. A healthy Warriors side is really scary for the league, they may not have Andrew Wiggins back but they have enough offensive depth to win here, especially with the way Steph has been playing.

Suggested Bet: Golden State Warriors

14 March 04:00 Sacramento Kings v Milwaukee Bucks

The Kings have clinched 40 wins in a season for the first time since 2005-06. Here they return at home playing the Bucks which I like as underdogs. This is a good bet considering knowing the status of Giannis because if he doesn’t play you can take a straight money line for the Kings.

The Kings play a different ball game when they are playing at home, they’ve only lost once in their previous home games. The Kings shoot from the 3 at 39.3% when playing at home while the Bucks shoot at 35.6% from the 3 when playing away. This will be a good game but I have to ride with the Kings.

Suggested Bet: Sacramento Kings +6.5
