The best NBA bets for Tuesday as we look to bounce back into form after a slightly unlucky day yesterday.
It all starts in the game between Indiana and Cleveland.
Indiana @ Cleveland
May 11th 9:30am
A Central Division duel on the parquet floor of the Quicken Loans Arena.
The Indiana Pacers are on the road as they make the trip to face the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Indiana came up on the short end of a 133-132 overtime loss at home to Washington in their last game.
Cleveland was at home on Saturday as they hosted the Mavericks in the front half of a back-to-back set. It was belted 110-90 by Dallas and then handed a 124-97 loss yesterday.
In the all-time regular-season series, the Pacers own a 104-94 edge and have won the last four meetings between the teams.

Washington @ atlanta
May 11th 9:30am
The Hawks host the Wizards in the second meeting of the season between these teams.
The Hawks won the first matchup 116-100 on January 29th as Trae Young dropped 41 points.
This is the first of consecutive games between these teams and a real test of load management given we come towards the end of the season.
The Wizards have won consecutive games in overtime after beating the Pacers 133-132 over the weekend.
The Hawks have won three of their last four games and should able to shake off a disappointing 133-126 loss to the Pacers.

It’s an inter-conference clash on the hardwood down in the Lone Star State.

Milwaukee comes in off a 141-133 home victory over Houston Friday night in their most recent contest.
San Antonio was drubbed 124-102 on the road by Portland in their most recent outing.
In the all-time regular-season series between the teams, the Spurs own a 50-42 advantage but it was Milwaukee earning a 120-113 home victory in the first meeting this season back on March 20.
Expecting a close one here despite the Spurs’ heavy loss against Portland on Sunday.

Utah @ Golden State
May 11th 12:00pm
The Utah Jazz hope to keep their five-game win streak alive when heading to the Oracle Arena for a run-in with the baby-faced assassin, Steph Curry, and his Golden State Warriors.
Curry and his crew got the best of Utah when the two teams last met up back in March.
The Warriors be looking for a little déjà vu following the their clean sweep of a doubleheader against the embattled Oklahoma City Thunder.
Meanwhile, the Jazz are coming off a 124-116 victory over the Houston Rockets.
Predicting the Jazz will want to make a statement in this one given their past failure against the Warriors earlier this season.
Utah should prove too strong.
Suggested Bet: Utah -1.5 point spread at $1.90
