Tuesday brings us another day of best bets from the NBA as our team of experts tries to find those winners to fill up your pockets.
We start our day with the Hornets clashing against the Wizards.
Charlotte @ Washington
November 23rd 11:00am
It’s an Eastern Conference showdown when Charlotte travels to Capital One Arena for a clash against the Washington Wizards.
After dropping five in a row, Charlotte has gotten back over the .500-mark by winning five of its last six games.
They enter with a 10-8 overall record, good for third place in the Southeast Division standings, while Washington leads the division with a surprising 11-5 overall record through 16 games as star guard Bradley Beal leads the way.
Washington has been very kind to the punters this season as home favourite against the spread with a 3-1 record, so we will stick with the home team in this one.
Suggested Bet: Washington Wizards -3.5 at $1.90
Suggested Same Game Multi:
Leg 1: Washington -3.5
Leg 2: Total points scored over 215.5
Leg 3: B. Beal over 23.5 points
Combined odds = $5.25
Brooklyn @ Cleveland
November 23rd 11:00am
Cleveland faces the daunting prospect of welcoming the Brooklyn Nets to Quicken Home Loans Arena come Tuesday morning in what is a clash between sixth and second in the Eastern Conference.
The Nets bring winning form into the game after James Harden combined with Patty Mills to help overcame a plucky Orlando Magic on Saturday.
The Cavs, meanwhile, were left to rue a horrific final quarter against Golden State where they managed eight points in the 104 to 89 loss.
There is a saying that you start your next game how you finished your last and if that is a sign here, the Nets might just set up an unassailable lead early in the contest.
There is some hope for the Cavaliers with the Nets mixing up their form (4-3 ATS record) against the spread when going into games as away favorites this season.
The line has shifted from an opening quote of 5.5 points and the Cavaliers at the plus now look the value.
Suggested Bet: Cleveland +7.5 at $1.95
Houston @ Boston
november 23rd 11:30am
The embattled Houston Rockets are on the road as they head to TD Garden for a tough fixture against Boston.
If the season could not get anymore difficult for the Rockets, they have actually lost their last three fixtures against the Celtics and bring in a horrible 1-15 overall season record to this match.
The Celtics, however, are starting to find their groove and took a step in the right direction after pummelling the Lakers and then backing it up with a dogged victory against Oklahoma City.
It is no surprise that the Celtics have hit form just as Jayson Tatum ups the anti from the field with the marquee forward averaging 35 points in his last two games.
This should be an easy one for the Celtics to cover the spread in front of their home fans.
Suggested Bet: Boston Celtics -11.5 at $1.90
minnesota @ New orleans
november 23rd 12:00pm
Minnesota Timberwolves (7-9) travels over to the Smoothie King Center to clash against the New Orleans Pelicans (3-15).
It has been big struggle for the Pelicans without their gun power forward Zion Williamson as they struggle to make any inroads in the Western Conference, while the Timberwolves have steadily progressed to 10th.
The Timberwolves have clearly shown the better form this season and can make it four wins in row as they charge towards 0.500.
Chris Finch has been able to get his offence to really fire and it all came together against Memphis on Sunday with marksmanship-like accuracy from the floor as they fired home a 138-95 victory.
We could be in for a similar result if the Timberwolves can produce something akin to that performance against the Grizzlies.
Suggested Bet: Minnesota -1.5 at $1.90
