NBA Betting Tips – 27 October

NBA punter Justin Simelane has prepared some best bets for tomorrow morning’s matches. He has betting tips for several NBA matches, including log leaders Milwaukee Bucks playing against Brooklyn Nets and many more.

27 Oct 01:10 Cleveland Cavaliers v Orlando Magic

There is no reason to bet on Orlando Magic they have lost all games they’ve played so far this season and will lose this one. When you look at stats, the Magic are bottom in points per game, points differential, and field goal percentage. If it weren’t for the rookie Paolo Banchero, Orlando’s numbers would look worse, I like Cleveland to win here and also cover the spread. Knowing how Orlando is playing the under is also a good bet for this game 

Suggested Bet: Cleveland Cavaliers -5/ Under 225

27 Oct 01:40 Milwaukee Bucks v Brooklyn Nets

The Nets do not defend well against players who go to the rim, we saw this in their previous game where Ja Morant put up 38 points. Ben Simmons is supposed to be their best defensive player but he has managed to get fouled out twice already and with Giannis, I see Ben struggling. The Nets are being outrebounded by every opponent they face, they are bottom two in rebounds and will be outrebounded tonight again. I like the Bucks to win at home here, better team offensively and defensively.

Suggested Bets: Milwaukee Bucks ML

27 Oct 03:10 Utah Jazz v Houston Rockets

Utah Jazz lost last time to the Rockets and they were the underdogs but this time around playing in Utah they are supposed to be the victors. The Jazz put up a great fight against the Rockets, and they converted more 2-point and 3-point field goals. The difference in that game were the free throws the Rockets made, otherwise Utah was winning that game. Alperen Sengun is the Rocket’s main man when it comes to rebounds but he won’t be available for this game due to injury, so the Jazz might win the rebound game. I really like the Jazz here, take them to win and also cover the spread.

Suggested Bet: Utah Jazz ML/ Utah Jazz -2.5

27 Oct 04:10 Denver Nuggets v Los Angeles Lakers

The Lakers are not playing good basketball and I don’t see them beating a well-rested Nuggets side. Lakers are also not shooting the ball well, their best 3 point shooter is Lebron James who is averaging 2.3 per game while the Nuggets have Michael Porter Jr who is top 4 in three-point shooting so far this season. When your best shooter is a 37-year-old man, then you have a problem, and Russel Westbrook is also having a terrible season and causing tension around the Lakers camp, I like the Nuggets to win at home here.

Suggested Bet: Denver Nuggets ML
