15 Mar 2023
Check out all the expert analysis for an action packed day of NBA betting!
Philadelphia 76ers vs Cleveland Cavaliers
Joel Embiid takes on Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen, while James Harden and Tyrese Maxey face Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland. The Cavs are the third-best team in the NBA against the spread at home (21-12-2), making them a solid pick to edge out a win over Embiid and the Sixers.
Get in on the action with Cleveland +2 at $1.91.
Memphis Grizzlies vs Miami Heat
Even without Ja Morant, the Grizzlies have won three straight games. However, they're one of the worst teams in the league on the road, going just 12-22 and ranking 28th overall. Fortunately for them, they're facing the Heat, who are the worst home team against the spread in the NBA. With Desmond Bane and Jaren Jackson Jr. leading the way, Memphis should be able to keep things close against Jimmy Butler and Miami.
Take Memphis +3.5 at $1.97.
Sacramento Kings vs Chicago Bulls
The Kings boast the league's top offense while the Bulls have the third-best defense since January 1 but with the way Sacramento has been playing lately, it's tough to see Chicago keeping up. Look for the Domantas Sabonis and De'Aaron Fox to lead the Kings to victory, especially since Sacramento is the third-best team in the NBA at covering the spread on the road (20-12).
Get on Sacramento +1 at $1.87.
Boston Celtics vs Minnesota Timberwolves
The Celtics have lost five of their last eight games and are in desperate need of a win against Minnesota. With Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown leading the charge, the Wolves will have a tough time stopping them, especially since they'll be relying on Kyle Anderson and Jaden McDaniels.
Bet on Boston to cover the 5-point spread at $1.91.
Golden State Warriors vs LA Clippers
The Warriors have struggled on the road this season, going just 7-26 and having the worst record against the spread (9-23-1) in the league. The Clippers' duo of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George should be too much for them to handle, especially with Andrew Wiggins and Andre Iguodala out.
Take LA Clippers -2.5 at $1.91.
