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

24 Feb 02:00 Indiana Pacers v Boston Celtics

The Pacers are no match for this Celtics side, both offensively and defensively. The Pacers are good as underdogs as they shoot well from behind the arc, but here the Celtics are the better 3-point shooting team and in their last 3 games they are shooting at 40%. Boston knows that they can’t afford to let games like these slip because Milwaukee is right behind them for that top spot in the East. As this is Joe Mazzulla’s first game as the head coach of the Celtics I see him delivering here, take Boston.

Suggested Bet: Boston Celtics ML

24 Feb 02:00 Cleveland Cavaliers v Denver Nuggets

The Cavaliers rank bottom when it comes to Pace in the league, their style of play has resulted in the majority of their games going under. This game is going to be competitive as both sides can win it here but the under is the bet to take. The Cavs have the best defence in the league only allowing 106.1 points per game. Between these two their games have never been a high-scoring fest and I see the same following tonight.

Suggested Bet: Under 230

24 Feb 02:00 Orlando Magic v Detroit Pistons

It’s too late for the Pistons to save their season while this Orlando can compete for a play-in spot, depending on how they play in the 2nd half of the season. The Pistons don’t play well on the road and they haven’t won an away game since the 27th of January in a surprise win against the Nets. Banchero will have a good game here leading his side to a nice home win.

Suggested Bet: Orlando Magic ML

24 Feb 05:00 Los Angeles Lakers v Golden State Warriors

These are the top 2 sides in the league when it comes to pace, there is only one bet that I am taking here and that is the over. The Lakers are allowing 118.2 ppg and Golden state is allowing 118.5 ppg. Golden State is a top 3 side when it comes to scoring and in their last 5 the over has come out 4 times. This game is going to be entertaining and high scoring, take the over.

Suggested Bet: Over 228
