A tasty treat of Friday fixtures greet us for NBA action.
The BetDeluxe basketball experts have gone through all the best bets across the biggest games as we head towards another big weekend.
Washington @ Miami
November 19th 11:30am
Washington is on the road again, this time it is over to Florida for the Wizards when they face Miami.
The Wizards will be seeking to get back to winning ways after being knocked off by Charlotte, while the Heat are looking to continue their charge up the Eastern Conference after notching up their third win in a row to go 10-5.
Miami boasts are very solid winning record against fellow Eastern Conference rivals with a 4-2 advantage to go with a +9.8 points-per-game scoring differential (105.5 ppg for, 95.7 ppg against) on the year.
The Heat should be able to collect the ‘W’ and continue their impressive 73.3% strike rate against the spread.
Suggested Bet: Miami Heat -7.5 at $1.96
golden state @ cleveland
November 19th 11:30am
Golden State Warriors head over to Cleveland for a clash against the Cavaliers on Friday morning.
It’s a case of first in the West meeting sixth in the East with both teams continuing to keep up their good early season form.
Both teams come into this game having met the Brooklyn Nets in their most recent fixtures.
The Warriors were able to get the job done with Stephen Curry going crazy from three-point range again, while the Cavaliers fell short to regress to 9-7 overall.
Returning home to to Quicken Home Loans Arena might just be the tonic the Cavaliers need.
Golden State having a losing record against the spread when starting favourites on the road.
Suggested Bet: Cleveland Cavaliers +8.5 at $1.92
LA Clippers @ Memphis
november 19th 11:30am
Los Angeles Clippers hit the road for a fixture against Memphis Grizzlies at FedEx Forum.
The Clippers found their winning form against San Antonio Spurs after being humbled by Chicago back on Monday.
Even without Kawhi Leonrd, Paul George has stepped up to the plate and he impressed again with 34 points, nine rebounds and four assists in the win the against the Spurs.
The Grizzlies, meanwhile, went on a scoring frenzy to win 136-102 against the lowly-ranked Houston Rockets.
It was an offensive display that might have the Clippers a touch worried, but with George firing on all cylinders, they will be hard to stop.
The Clippers boast a two from two record against the spread when starting as the away favourite and that is good enough for us here.
Suggested Bet: Los Angeles Clippers -1 at $1.90
Philadelphia @ Denver
november 19th 1:00pm
The Philadelphia 76ers travel to Ball Arena in Colorado for a road matchup with the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night.
The 76ers (8-7) are off to a rocky start this year and were dismantled on the road by the Utah Jazz 120-85 on Tuesday night.
The Nuggets (9-5) are playing sound basketball but fell to the Dallas Mavericks 111-101 on the road in their most recent fixture but they do open this game as slight home favourites.
The 76ers have really struggled without Joel Embiid and their loss against the Jazz just makes them too tough to tip with any confidence at the moment.
Suggested Bet: Denver Nuggets -7.5 at $1.92
