It’s an early start to a new week of NBA as the Clippers take on the Mavericks in the first fixture on Monday. 

The BetDeluxe NBA crew has gone through all the best bets and same game multis for the games you cannot miss. 

Dallas @ LA Clippers

November 22nd 7:30am

Los Angeles Clippers host the Dallas Mavericks from Staples Center for an early Monday morning fixture.

The Clippers will attempt to rebound off two shock losses against Memphis and New Orleans, while the Mavericks come into this Western Conference clash having succumb to back-to-back-losses against the Phoenix Suns. 

This game marks the third of four games away from home for Dallas with this being the first of its double-header against the Clippers. 

Dallas has a fairly solid 6-3 record against the spread when coming off a day break as it does in this game. 

The Clippers will need to find another gear in this clash with the Mavericks being the strongest team, on paper, they have faced in the last three fixtures.  

Suggested Bet: Dallas +2.5 at $1.93

Suggested Same Game Multi: 
Leg 1: Dallas Mavericks +2.5
Leg 2: Total points scored under 214.5
Combined odds = $3.50

 

lA lakers @ detroit

November 22nd 10:00am

Things are already getting desperate in the gold and purple camp of Los Angeles Lakers as it looks to rectify a huge loss against Boston when it travels to Detroit for a clash against at the Pistons.

The Lakers were terrible on defence and continued their inconsistent beginning to the season with the a 130 to 108 loss against the Celtics.

There still seems to be a massive lack of chemistry and form between LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony. 

It is a danger game regardless of the fact the Pistons sit 14th in the Eastern Conference. 

Detroit’s last two fixtures have really seen it pick up its defensive act after solid win over Indiana and a narrow loss against the in-form team of the league in Golden State. 

The Lakers clearly have the talent to overcome any issues they might face in the game, but the Pistons can cover the spread.  

Suggested Bet: Detroit Pistons +7.5 at $1.91

Suggested Same Game Multi:
Leg 1: LA Lakers head to head
Leg 2: Detroit Pistons +7.5
Leg 3: Total point scored under 209.5
Combined odds = $7

Denver @ Phoenix

november 22nd 12:00pm

Second in the West meets fifth in the West when Phoenix plays host to Denver at FootPrint Center on Monday afternoon.

The Suns are on an absolute tear at the moment having won 11 consecutive matches and are fancied to make it 12 in a row as the -7.5 favourite. 

A three-game slide is what the Nuggets need to overturn in this game having gone from 9-4 overall to 9-7 thanks to losses against Dallas, Philadelphia and Chicago. 

Interestingly, the Suns, for all the form they are in, actually own a losing record against the spread as a home favourite. 

The 4-5 record might just very well implant some confidence into the Nuggets camp who will be desperate to regain its winning form. 

Assist king Chris Paul is going to make all the play for the Suns as he usually does and it will need a collective effort from the Nuggets to stop him and his partner-in-crime Devin Booker.

Suggested Bet: Denver Nuggets +7.5 at $1.91

new york @ chicago

november 22nd 12:00pm

Two Eastern Conference heavy weights come nose to nose when Chicago opens it doors to the New York Knicks at the United Center. 

The Bulls just keep surprising the league having improved to an 11-5 record as they now have themselves camped in third place of the East, while the Knicks found a way to get back into winning form against the struggling Houston Rockets. 

Chicago comes into this game as the -4.5 favourite and holds a 5-2 record against the spread at home. 

However, the Knicks have an unblemished 2-0 record against the spread when they are the underdog away from home, so it shapes as a close battle. 

Julius Randle might prove the focal point for the Knicks here after he was close to notching up a triple double in the win over the Rockets. 

Randle went for 16 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists holding his season averages at 19.6 points per game, exactly 10 rebounds per game and 5.2 assists. 

If he can hold that form here, the Knicks can cover the spread. 

Suggested Bet: New York Knicks +4.5 at $1.91

Suggested Same Game Multi: 
Leg 1: New York Knicks +4.5
Leg 2: Total points scored over 208.5 
Combined odds = $3.40
