30 Jan 02:00 Charlotte Hornets vs New York Knicks

Form-wise the Knicks are the best team in the Ean it looks like only a few teams will give them troubles in the East. A team not giving the Knicks any problems is definitely the Hornets, Charlotte is losing every game they play now. The Hornets traded away Rozier, and he was averaging 22 points, their main man Lamelo is still out with an ankle injury. The Odds are reasonable considering that this is an away game for the Knicks, take them to win here.

Suggested Bet: Knicks ML

30 Jan 02:30 Boston Celtics vs New Orleans Pelicans

One important factor for this game is that Boston is playing at home, they have only managed to lose 2 games out of their 20 home games, and they have the best home record of any team in the league. The Pelicans on the other hand have currently lost two of their last away games and I see them losing this one too. The Celtics will be pushed in the first half and could even trail, but they are the team with more depth and are more efficient offensively and defensively. The Celtics will try to get back on form and show why they are first in the east here.

Suggested Bet: Boston Celtics ML

30 Jan 05:00 Portland Trail Blazers vs Philadelphia 76ers

Joel Embiid was out for the 76ers when they played the Denver Nuggets in Denver but for this game, he makes his return and so does his teammates Tyrese and Tobias. The Blazers are playing back-to-back here and will be playing a well-rested 76ers team, this game will be ending in the first half. In his last 3 games against the Blazers Embiid is averaging 32 points, he is going to dominate this one again as the Blazers don’t have the defense to stop him.

Suggested Bet: 76ers ML/ -6.5 Philadelphia 76ers
