NBA Daily Betting Tips – 5 January

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.

05 Jan 02:00 Toronto Raptors v San Antonio Spurs

The Spurs have now lost three games in a row and will lose this game too. The reason being is that the Toronto Raptors are now getting all their players back from covid protocols and injury. Trust the Raptors to make it three wins in a row after this game

Suggested Bet: Raptors to win

05 Jan Cleveland Cavaliers v Memphis Grizzlies

The Grizzlies will be the side battling fatigue as they just came from a win against the Nets while the Cavaliers were resting. Regardless of fatigue the best bet to go with is the Grizzlies because the Cavs have lost 3 vital players to injuries now and will battle trying to keep up with the Grizzlies. Trust Ja Morant to lead his side to yet another win, making it 6 on the spin.

Suggested Bet: Grizzlies +7.5

05 Jan 03:00 New Orleans Pelicans v Phoenix Suns

In their last two games, the Pelicans have let their opponents get over 110 points, their defence is non-existent at this point. Now give that defence to players like Devin Booker and Chris Paul and they will haunt you. Take the Suns to get the win on the road.

Suggested Bet: Suns to win

05 Jan 05:30 Lakers v Sacramento Kings

Lebron James is now averaging 30 points per game and this has really helped the Lakers but their record is very similar to the Kings. I trust the Lakers to win but they will not blow out the Kings.

Suggested Bet: Kings +9.5
