Why These Picks?‍
‍
HOU Rockets v ORL Magic: If you think the Rockets win this game (and I do…) just play the spread. Houston’s last 10 victories have all been by at least 4 points, and while the Magic has kept some really close games as of late, they were all against far lesser teams than the Rockets. Houston has won their last 4 straight meetings with the Magic, and despite the visitors being on a back-to-back here, my money is still on them to cover.
‍
SAC Kings v DAL Mavericks: Wagering on the Kings to underperform has been nothing but a gravy train this past few weeks. And while the Mavericks defense leaves much to be desired, so does Sacramento’s offense. I’ll keep riding this gravy train until it stops cashing; take the Kings to put less than 114 points on the board.
‍
WAS Wizards v ATL Hawks: The Hawks should bag a relatively easy win here on their own court. Atlanta played Washington just 2 days ago and the Wizards struggled to crack 100 points on the road. In fact, Washington’s last 5 straight losses have all been by double digits. I won’t overthink this one, friends – take the home team to cover the spread.
‍
NO Pelicans v UTA Jazz: Undoubtedly one of my favourite high-scoring matchups, friends. The last 4 straight meetings between these two teams have cashed the Over, and the Jazz are far more capable offensively at home than they are on the road. In addition, Utah has cashed the Over in their last 3 straight outings, while New Orleans has hit it in 3 of their last 4. It’s a big number, I know – but these two squads have cleared it in all 3 of their last encounters in Utah. My money’s on this game to fall North of 242.5.
