1. LEBRON JAMES 30+ PRA
2. JAYSON TATUM 32+ PTS
3. JIMMY BUTLER OVER 5+ REB
4. ANTHONY EDWARDS 5+ REB
5. DAM ADEBAYO OVER 11+ REB
1. LAKERS +8 (-108)
Odds: -108
Probability: 54.3%
Edge: 2.4%
Game: Lakers vs Timberwolves (8PM EST)
Our Basketball Forever betting bot has uncovered the best bet of the day, taking place in the Lakers vs Timberwolves matchup. In this matchup, our model has determined that Lakers +8 is a solid wager to place. Even on the second night of a back to back, eight points is a lot for a Lakers team that can explode on any given night, especially considering the offensive woes of the team they run into in this one. The Timberwolves are reeling this year, and are desperately missing the floor spacing provided by KAT who was traded to the Knicks this off season. Take the Lakers with the points.
Our Basketball Forever betting bot recommends placing a wager on Lakers +8.0. With our model showing -108 odds and a 2.4% edge.
2. PELICANS +9.5 (-105)
Odds: -105
Probability: 53.5%
Edge: 2.3%
Game: Pelicans vs Hawks (7:30PM EST)
Our last best bet our Basketball Forever betting bot has uncovered takes us to Atlanta where the Pelicans vs Hawks get ready to face off. Trae Young is a GTD in this one, and even if he does play, 10 points is too many against a team that has had significant defensive struggles this season. The Pels have Murray and McCollum back from injury, and should have enough offensive firepower to keep this within a 2-3 score game.
Our basketball Forever betting bot recommends placing a wager on Pelicans +9.5 with a 2.3% edge and -105 odds.
