NBA Betting Tips – 6 December

NBA action continues tomorrow morning and Justin Simelane has prepared his betting tips for four matches. Feel free to take his tips and use them on your bet slip.

6 Dec 02:00 Orlando Magic v Milwaukee Bucks

Orlando has now lost 8 games in a row and after this game, it should be 9. Giannis did not play the Bucks’ last game as he was rested, his status is to change soon and he could return for this game. But the Bucks do not need Giannis to beat this Orlando team, they won against the Hornets without Giannis and should do the same here. Kris Middleton needs to play as many games as he can to get back to his fine form and fitness, I see him starting this one. The Bucks are a top 3 defensive side, they should get another win here.

Suggested Bets: Milwaukee Bucks -6

6 Dec 02:30 Atlanta Hawks v Oklahoma City Thunder

This game is one for the over, the line is even set so high that tells you something. OKC is averaging 116.8 points per game while the Hawks are averaging 114.0 points per game. Both sides are top ten when it comes to pace in the league with OKC with a pace of 101.74 and Atlanta with a pace of 100.48. The good news is that Trae Young should be back for the Hawks so your secondary bet here would be to bet on a straight win for Atlanta. But all in all this game will be going back and forth and I see the overcoming.

Suggested Bet: Over 227/ Atlanta Hawks ML

6 Dec 03:00 Houston Rockets v Philadelphia 76ers

James Harden is nearing his return and it’s said to be tonight. The Sixers will still be without Tyrese Maxey but getting Harden back is good news for them. The Philadelphia 76ers rarely lose to the Rockets and the last time they lost to the Rockets, James Harden was playing for them. Take Philly to win here.

Suggested Bet: Philadelphia 76ers ML

6 Dec 05:00 Golden State Warriors v Indiana Pacers

The Warriors are a force to be reckoned with when playing at home. Only the Nuggets have beat Golden state at the Chase Center, every other team has failed and so will Indiana. The Pacers will be playing back-to-back so the Warriors here have an advantage as the better-rested team. Their best player Tyrese Haliburton remains questionable but even with him playing the Warriors take this.

Suggested Bet: Golden State Warriors ML
