16 Feb 02:30 Philadelphia 76ers v Boston Celtics
The Celtics have been red hot as of late and are on an 8 game winning streak. James Harden will not be playing this game so I expect Joel Embiid to carry the weight of his team. This game should be close but the Boston should get a close win here.
Suggested Bet: Boston Celtics ML
16 Feb 02:30 Miami Heat v Dallas Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks have been playing good basketball lately but heading into this game a player like Porzingis (who they traded) would have been needed. Home court advantage will certainly work for the Miami side as they beat the Dallas side to make it six on the spin.
16 Feb 02:30 Atlanta Hawks v Cleveland Cavaliers
In their last 5 games, the Hawks have only won once, they are a good side offensively but their defence isn’t solid. With big players like Jarret Allen and Evan Mobley, I expect the Cavs to exploit this. Hawks player John Collins is also not available for this game so it means more shooting from the three for the side, which will result with more turnovers, bet on the Cavs.
Suggested Bet: Cleveland Cavaliers to win
16 Feb 05:00 Phoenix Suns vs LA Clippers
A well-rested Suns team will not lose at home to the Clippers. This team is currently 46-10 and that is the best record in the league, that means if you bet on them every time they played this season you’d be at a profit.
Suggested Bet: Phoenix Suns -7.5
