SA Spurs Win(+280)

Reasoning

It has been a difficult stretch for the San Antonio Spurs who have faced 5 likely playoff teams, losing all 5 games by an average of 19.5 points. Things don’t get easier on Wednesday night as they head to Denver for a date with the Nuggets. However, one thing that could give the Spurs some confidence going into this game is the fact that they’ve already won once at Ball Arena this season. It was back in early January in a game where they got 31 points and 18 rebounds from Victor Wembanyama. Wemby has been done for the season for a while now, so the Spurs will have to rely on the young guns to get a result here.

We witnessed another historic performance from Nikola Jokic as he racked up 61 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Sadly for him his team fell short 140-139 in double OT, despite having the ball and a 1-point lead with seconds remaining. The loss puts a dent into the hopes of the Nuggets in capturing the 2nd seed as Houston now has a 2-game lead with just 6 games remaining. You also have to wonder how much fuel is left in the tank after such a long game last night. Jokic and Christian Braun each logged 53 mins, while Aaron Gordon and Russell Westbrook played 47 and 38 mins respectively. Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. both missed last night’s game, they could be back for Wednesday’s clash.

I’m kind of hesitant to pull the trigger on Denver to cover here. San Antonio caused them problems in both meetings this season, winning one of them and pushing the game into OT in the other one. Jokic is unlikely to play due to fatigue, the Nuggets have lost their last 2 games in a back-to-back scenario to the Bulls and Wizards. I’ll take a gamble here and back San Antonio to pull off the upset.

Free NBA Money Line Picks

NBA Money line picks are the simplest way to make a pick or have a wager on an NBA basketball match. An NBA money line pick is picking which team you think will win the match. With no ties in the NBA, the outcomes are win or lose, right or wrong.

NBA money line picks are popular, but if you are betting a strong favorite in the NBA, their money line the odds can be as low as -600. On the flip side, however, if you like an underdog to cause an upset, you can see some great odds and returns.

Free NBA Picks Against the Spread for Today’s Games

When you want to bet on an elite team but don’t want to risk $600 or more to win $100, our expert NBA picks against the spread are the way to go. Betting against the spread on the NBA means you’re not wagering on a team to win, but to either win by a certain number of points or to lose by fewer than a certain number of points. If we take for example Boston being -650 on the Moneyline they will be around -10.5 against the spread. This means they have to win the game by 11 points or more for you to cash your ticket.

NBA picks against the spread are a great way to bet on underdogs too. Let’s say we go against the Boston Celtics in the above example and we take the points with a team like the San Antonio Spurs. The Spurs can lose by 10 points or fewer and we still win. They can also cause an upset and win the game outright, which would win your bet as well. This means every basket could mean something for your wager, from the tip until the buzzer, even garbage time can be a nail-biting finish with spread betting.

NBA Picks FAQs

How Do You Pick Against the Spread In The NBA?

Betting against the spread means to bet on the favourite to win by a certain amount of points or the underdog to win or lose by fewer than a certain amount.

Picks against the spread are popular amongst NBA bettors because they give more favorable odds for favorites and less risk when betting on an underdog.

NBA bets against the spread can be lucrative with some research, maybe the favorite has an injury, maybe the underdog has a strong match-up. Factors like these may not change who the winning team is but if you think it will change the margin of the victory NBA bets against the spread is where you can make it count.
