At Bet Central, we bring you daily NBA betting tips via NBA punter Justin Simelane. The NBA has been unpredictable of late but please stay tuned to this page for the best betting tips, every day for you.
18 Dec 02:00 Orlando Magic v Miami Heat
Orlando Magic have only won 3 games played at home this season, so when hosting they still don’t remain a threat. Miami has been hit with injuries to players like Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo but surprisingly their role players are as good, as we’ve seen with wins over Sixers and Bucks. Back Miami to win at home here.
18 Dec 03:00 New Orleans Pelicans v Milwaukee Bucks
The Bucks won’t have their talisman Giannis and now he’s been followed by Bobby Portis due to covid safety protocols. The Bucks already didn’t have Brook Lopez, so they are now lacking 3 vital defensive players. Even if they win they won’t cover the spread, back the Pelicans.
18 Dec 04:00 Utah Jazz v San Antonio Spurs
The Spurs are one of the leagues worst three-point shooting and they usually attack the paint. But now attacking the paint won’t work when Utah Jazz has a player like Rudy Gobert. Utah Jazz is winning comfortably at home here.
18 Dec 05:00 Portland Trail Blazers v Charlotte Hornets
Portland has had a terrible start to the season and have lost their last 7 games. Portland won’t have one of their best players CJ Collum while the Hornets have all their stars ready, including Lamelo Ball. Back the hornets to take an away win here.
