NBA Saturday Betting Tips

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

22 April 01:00 Atlanta Hawks v Boston Celtics

Atlanta made it to the playoffs by beating a Miami team that has its struggles when it comes to scoring but the Celtics do not have such a problem, they don’t struggle with their offence and will sweep this Hawks team. Trae Young is Atlanta’s main man but he is a defensive liability and this Celtics team know that and have been capitalising on that. Getting extra hurt during the post-season is what any team wants, the Celtics are already favourites to win the title and I see them winning game 3 here.

Suggested Bet: Boston Celtics ML

22 April 02:30 New York Knicks v Cleveland Cavaliers

Game 3 comes to the Garden and the Knicks are the team to take here. The Cavs are not a hot explosive team, the reason they only averaged 112 ppg during the regular. They are also a team that is inconsistent with their scoring, Darius Garland and Donovan Mitchell carry this team but their bench is poor.

The Cavs also haven’t had an answer for Jalen Brunson and in the paint, Julius Randle has been dominant. The Knicks are really a good team, have great chemistry and have been efficient, take them to take a 2-1 lead with homecourt advantage.

Suggested Bet: New York Knicks ML
