Bam Adebayo stole the headlines with his historic 83-point performance on Tuesday; we can only hope tonight’s NBA slate is just as entertaining. A total of 6 matchups are coming our way, including an ESPN doubleheader, kicking off with Cavaliers vs Magic at 7:30 pm ET, followed by a huge clash out West between the Rockets and Nuggets at 10:00 pm ET. I went 6-4 on my picks last night, and I’m hoping to improve that further with today’s action. My NBA best bets are ready for every single game; you can find them below. We’ve also got you covered with our expert NBA picks throughout the entire regular season and playoffs.
Cavaliers vs Magic NBA best bet: Tristan da Silva 2+ made threes (+100)
Tristan da Silva has cleared this line 7 times in 10 games played, while shooting a remarkable 49% from downtown. The Cavaliers rank 2nd for threes allowed to opposing small forwards and they also allow the 8th-most threes overall as a team.

Raptors vs Pelicans NBA best bet: RJ Barrett 2+ made threes (-112)
The Pelicans allow the most threes to opposing shooting guards and also rank 4th for most threes allowed as a team. RJ Barrett is averaging 20 points per game in 5 meetings against them, he’s shot 50% or better in 2 of the last 3 against the Pelicans.

Knicks vs Jazz NBA best bet: Knicks -12.5 (-114)
The Knicks should take out their frustrations here after back-to-back defeats against the 2 LA teams. They thoroughly dominated the first meeting 146-112 in a wire-to-wire win, starting off the game by scoring the first 23 points and leading by as many as 41 points. New York is 5-2 ATS/SU in 7 meetings.

Hornets vs Kings NBA best bet: Over 226.5 (-110)
After a hard-fought battle and win over the Trail Blazers last night, I am expecting a lot more points in tonight’s Hornets game against the Kings. The flood gates should open against one of the worst defensive teams in the league — the last 10 meetings have seen over 233 points per game on average.

Rockets vs Nuggets NBA best bet: Rockets +5.5 (-106)
Denver has been far too inconsistent lately, winning just 4 of 10 games. Although he’s putting up monster numbers, there’s something about Nikola Jokic and the way he moves following that knee injury which cost him 15 games. KD and company should be encouraged by winning the latest meeting by double-digits; they are also 7-3 SU in 10 road games entering this one. I’ll lay the points on Houston.

Timberwolves vs Clippers NBA best bet: Kris Dunn over 3.5 rebounds (+116)
The odds on this bet are far too good for us to miss out. Dunn has cleared this line in 8 of 10 games played, while Minnesota ranks 3rd for rebounds allowed to opposing point guards this season. Dunn is averaging 5.2 boards per game in 10 meetings with the Timberwolves, he is yet to have less than 5 of them in 3 meetings this season.
