NBA Betting Tips – 6 January

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

06 Jan 02:00 Orlando Magic v Memphis Grizzlies

I stated before that this Grizzlies team could be set on an amazing run of games, they have won their last 4 and should win this one too. Memphis should win this game because of threes, the Magic are one of the league’s worst 3-point shooting teams. The Grizzlies are now becoming one of the league’s best defensive sides, they lead in rebounds and are second when it comes to blocks. Desmond Bane is going to return for this game and with his shooting, some players will get fewer minutes for some rest. Take the Grizzlies to beat this young Orlando team.

Suggested Bet: Memphis Grizzlies ML

06 Jan 03:00 Houston Rockets v Utah Jazz

I like the over here, it’s back-to-back for the Rockets but they are not going to lay back and let Utah blow them out in Houston.  Utah allows more points per game than the Rockets at 116.6 while Houston is allowing 115.7 points per game. But the Jazz have a way better offense and are top 5 in the league averaging 117.2 points per game. The Primary bet here would be to bet on over points or take the bet on a Utah win since the Rockets are also playing back-to-back.

Suggested Bet: Over 224/ Utah Jazz ML

06 Jan 05:00 Denver Nuggets v Los Angeles Clippers

Head-to-head the Nuggets have beaten the Clippers in 5 games in a row. This Nuggets team is leading the West along with the Grizzlies and we have to back them here. The Clippers have had issues of injury primarily their two best players Paul George and Kawhi Leonard. This Nuggets team is really good and their previous loss was merely a fatigue issue. The Clippers have lost their last 3 games, bet on the Nuggets to make it 4.

Suggested Bet: Denver Nuggets ML
