NBA Betting Tips – 17 November

NBA action continues tomorrow morning and Justin Simelane has prepared his betting tips for four matches. Feel free to take his tips and use them on your bet slip.

17 Nov 02:00 Charlotte Hornets v Indiana Pacers

I know heading into this NBA basketball game the Hornets are favourites because Lamelo is back but they won’t have it easy in this game. But with Lamelo back he adds to their offensive depth and we saw this in their previous win against the Magic. Now the Pacers are an Overs team, in their last 3 games, the over has been the money. Tyrese Haliburton does not even have to shoot well for the over to come, but in this game, he should put up his usual numbers, bet on the Over here.

Suggested Bets: Over 225

17 Nov 02:30 Toronto Raptors v Miami Heat

This will be a game between sides that have been dealing with some injuries early in the season. Tyler Hero and Pascal Siakam are definitely out for this game but the statuses of Fred VanFleet, Gary Trent Jr and Bam Adebayo remain questionable. With all the news of these players I have to pick the under to be the bet for this game, they already played earlier this season with all the mentioned players and the under still managed to hit going under 200.

Suggested Bet: Under 220

17 Nov 03:30 Dallas Mavericks v Houston Rockets

Christian Wood goes up against his former team here and even though the Mavericks will be playing back-to-back I see them winning comfortably. In 10 games played the Rockets have only won once and that was a team that is supposed to struggle this season. They are no match for the Mavericks, especially with the way Luka is playing right now, bet on the moneyline or the spread here.

Suggested Bet: Dallas Mavericks ML/ Dallas Mavericks -7.5

17 Nov 05:00 Denver Nuggets v New York Knicks

The team to bet on for this game will be the Knicks, the reason why is that the Nuggets will not have their best player Nikola Jovic for this game, he is listed out for health protocols. Now Nikola Jokic is the captain of the Nuggets’ ship and without him, they will be short on defence and offence too. Bones Hyland will also not be playing but Aaron Gordon is questionable. The Knicks are not the most consistent side but Julius Randle and co will try to take advantage of the Denver team news making it 2 wins in as many days.

Suggested Bet: New York Knicks ML
