The NBA brings us 7 games on Saturday, with the Eastern Conference-leading Detroit Pistons taking to the floor. They will be looking to extend their league best 11-game winning streak as they take on the Milwaukee Bucks. With stars like Nikola Jokic, James Harden and Jalen Brunson in action, too, so we have plenty to look forward to.
Also check out all of our NBA picks. But for now take a look at my best bet selections for each game.
Clippers vs Hornets best bet: Hornets ML (+100)
The Clippers have won just 1 of 7 games on the road this season and go into this game without Kawhi Leonard. Since Brandon Miller is coming back from injury for the Horners, they should be well positioned to come away with a win.
Knicks vs Magic best bet: Knicks ML (-115)
The Knicks have been leading the league over the last 10 games in both offensive rating and 3-point makes per game. With Paolo Banchero out, the Knicks should have too much firepower in this one.
Hawks vs Pelicans best bet: Jalen Johnson over 16.5 rebounds and assists (-108)
Johnson has hit the over on this line in 6 straight games. He is going up against a Pelicans team that is 25th in opponent assists per game and also 25th in rebounding percentage. This should be a great opponent against whom to keep the streak going.
Pistons vs Bucks best bet: Pistons -8.5 (-110)
The Pistons are the hottest team in the league, winning 11 straight games. They are fifth in net offensive and defensive rating during that stretch. With the Bucks missing Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Pistons should be well positioned to dominate in this one.
Wizards vs Bulls best bet: Josh Giddey to record a triple double (+180)
Giddey has 1 triple-double in his last 4 games and was just an assist away from another in his last outing. The Wizards give up more rebounds per game than any other team and are 29th in the league in opponent assists per game. It should be a great matchup for the Australian.
Grizzlies vs Mavericks best bet: Under 228.5 (-110)
Both teams have been hit by injuries with Anthony Davis, Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. all unavailable in this game. The Mavs are playing the second game of a back-to-back and will be looking to reduce the tempo. Do not expect a high-scoring game as a result.
Kings vs Nuggets best bet: Nuggets -11 (-110)
The Nuggets have won 9 of their last 10 games and will take on a Kings team that has just 1 win out of 9 on the road this season. With the visitors missing Domantas Sabonis, too, this one should be a mismatch.
