31 Jan 02:30 Atlanta Hawks vs Los Angeles Lakers

The Lakers are such an inconsistent side, betting on their Moneyline is always a risk. Anthony Davis played more minutes against the Rockets than he had anticipated but for this game he will be put on a minute’s restriction. The Davis news may affect the bet, but the over is the bet to go for this game. The Lakers are not playing good defense, in their previous 7 games the over has been the best to go for. Now the Hawks are not known for their defense either, they allow the 2nd most ppg, but they also score a lot, averaging 120 ppg. This should be a fast and high scoring game take the over.

Suggested Bet: Over 238

31 Jan 02:30 Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers

Boston won last night against the Pelicans, but they did not start that game well and were down by 10 points at the half. Now here they are playing back-to-back against a well-rested Pacers team, not only well rested but Haliburton plans to play this game. The Pacers are still average the most points per game, have the best field goal percentage and are 2nd when it comes to pace. The over is the correct bet to take here, news could change if Boston decides to sit one of their starters because this is back-to-back.

Suggested Bet: Over 236

31 Jan 03:00 Chicago Bulls vs Toronto Raptors

The Raptors definitely didn’t win the Tarde between the Knicks because the Knicks are striving with OG Anunoby while the Raptors are in a slump with RJ Barret and Immanuel Quickley. Now speaking of RJ and Immanuel, the two will be out for this game, now that is advantage Bulls, when the two teams met the two new Raptors additions only combined for a total of 29 points in a loss to the Bulls. The Raptors are on a 5-game losing streak, it won’t end here bet on the Bulls.

Suggested Bet: Bulls ML
