NBA Betting Tips – 21 October

The NBA season is well and truly underway, and NBA punter Justin Simelane has prepared some betting tips for tomorrow morning’s matches. He covers two of tomorrow morning’s games as the Philadelphia 76ers take on the Milwaukee Bucks while the Lakers do battle against the Clippers.

21 Oct 01:30 Philadelphia 76ers v Milwaukee Bucks

This will be a great match between two franchises with hopes of winning a chip this season. We know the Bucks to be a tremendous offensive side because of the likes of Giannis, Kris Middleton and Jrue Holiday. Now for this game, the Bucks will not have Kris and that is an advantage for Philly. The 76ers lost their opening game to the Celtics but they still managed to score 117 points away from home. A good bet for this game would be betting on the over as last season both teams averaged over 109 points per game. Another bet would be betting on the home team to win as the Bucks have looked a mess during pre-season losing all their games.

Suggested Bet: Philadelphia 76ers ML/ Over 216

21 Oct 04:00 LA Lakers v LA Clippers

The Lakers last season did not run LA at all, in four games against the Clippers they lost 4 times. The Clippers have Kawhi Leonard back after he missed the whole of last season. It’s rare for the Lakers odds to be at almost 3 when playing against the Clippers but because of their performance against the Warriors, we saw that the team is going to struggle again. The Clippers have PG13, Kawhi and have added John Wall to their roaster, bet on the team with the better offence.

Suggested Bet: LA Clippers ML/ LA Clippers -5.5
