A total of 22 teams are in action on Wednesday in the NBA, promising us yet another epic night of quality NBA basketball. I’ve analyzed all 11 games and come up with my NBA best bets for every single one of them. Don’t forget to check our NBA picks and in-depth coverage of all of tonight’s matchups and throughout the whole season.
76ers vs Cavaliers best bet: Cavaliers -10.5 (-110)
Philadelphia is playing on the 2nd night of a back-to-back following a tough loss in Chicago. Cleveland also gets Darius Garland back.
Jazz vs Pistons best bet: Jazz +10.5 (-110)
Utah beat Boston on the road as a double-digit underdog and scored just 9 threes. Lauri Markkanen is a beast right now, so expect the Jazz to keep it close.
Nets vs Pacers best bet: Over 232.5 (-110)
Playing defense has been problematic for both sides, so backing the over makes sense here. Brooklyn has cashed on that bet in 12 of 16 games.
Timberwolves vs Knicks best bet: Knicks -5.5 (-110)
New York has covered in 5 straight home games. Minnesota is without Anthony Edwards, it’ll be hard for them to get a result without their best player here.

Wizards vs Celtics best bet: Wizards +11.5 (-110)
Boston has been very unreliable so far. The Celtics just got beat by Utah despite being double-digit favorites. I cannot trust them here, even against the Wizards.
Rockets vs Grizzlies best bet: Rockets -7.5 (-110)
The Grizzlies are a hot mess right now. Ja Morant is clashing with the coaching staff, which cannot be good for team chemistry. Back the Rockets.

Pelicans vs Mavericks best bet: Pelicans +7.5 (-110)
The Pelicans just won their first game and I believe they’ll keep it close against the injury-riddled Mavericks here.
Heat vs Nuggets best bet: Under 242.5 (-110)
Miami plays at the fastest pace, but playing in Denver with the shift in altitude could be a problem here. The last 10 meetings have averaged just 211.6 points.

Spurs vs Lakers best bet: Lakers -2.5 (-110)
Guarding Victor Wembanyama will likely be an issue for LA, but so will guarding Luka Doncic for the Spurs. Playing at home gives the Lakers the edge here.
Thunder vs Blazers best bet: Thunder -5.5 (-110)
The defending champs are showing no mercy in the early going this season. They just demolished the Clippers with most of the starters playing low minutes in a blowout win. They should keep the streak going in Portland.
Warriors vs Kings best bet: Warriors +3 (-110)
Sacramento is not a team; they are just a bunch of very talented players put together. The Warriors and Steph Curry in particular just love playing against them. I’ll happily take Golden State as a road underdog here.
