Point Spread Pick

SA Spurs -4.5(-110)

Reasoning

The Minnesota Timberwolves will try to avoid a 3-1 series deficit when they host the San Antonio Spurs Sunday night. The Spurs have won 2 straight games in this series, including a blowout 38-point win in Game 2 and a 115-108 win in Game 3. Victor Wembanyama has only gotten better as the series has gone on, coming off his best game after scoring 39 points on 13-of-18 from the field. He also added 15 rebounds and 5 blocks. It doesn’t matter if the Wolves put Rudy Gobert, Jaden McDaniels or Julius Randle on Wembanyama, he has looked unaffected by Minnesota’s efforts — regardless of who his primary defender has been.

The Timberwolves started slow in Game 3, missing their first 10 shots and only scoring 1 point in the first 7 minutes, but they eventually adjusted and kept it close throughout. Anthony Edwards continues to play through injuries to both knees, but it was the first time he started in this series — scoring 32 points in 41 minutes. With Edwards only playing an average of 24.5 minutes in the first 2 games, Game 3 was by far the most minutes he has logged this series, and it will play a significant role in how his knees respond to the high usage night.

If the Timberwolves want to succeed in Game 4, they will need better performances from Randle and McDaniels. The duo combined to shoot 8-of-34 from the field in Game 3 and were -11 and -15 in plus/minus — the 2 worst on the team. These 2 play their best when they can get 2 feet in the paint and score with their size and length, but that’s tough to come by against the Spurs with Wemby controlling the lane defensively. The Timberwolves are certainly a team you can never count out, but I think the Spurs smell blood in the water. I’ll back the Spurs to find a way to win by margin through their defensive efforts, earning a chance to close out this series in front of their hometown crowd in Game 5.

Money Line Pick

PHI 76ers Win(-105)

Reasoning

Only the OKC Thunder have left a better impression on me than the New York Knicks this postseason. Brunson and company are going for the sweep on Sunday as they face the 76ers in Game 4. Despite no OG Anunoby and a poor performance from KAT, New York found a way to get an important win in Game 3, holding Philly to just 9 made threes while out-rebounding them by 16. The rebounding part is a clear indicator of effort on most nights, and the Knicks just wanted it more in Game 3. Finishing the job on Sunday would do wonders for the Knicks, allowing for plenty of rest before the Eastern Conference Finals.

For Philly, pride is at stake here. Embiid has been in and out of the lineup, while the rest of the team just hasn’t been able to stay consistent with the big fella struggling to stay on the court. When Kelly Oubre Jr. is your leading scorer with 22 points in a postseason game in which Paul George, Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid all played, something isn’t right. PG in particular went ice-cold in the 2nd half, finishing the game just 6-for-18 from the field. It’s now been 7 games in a row in which the 76ers have failed to cover at home against the Knicks, as they enter Game 4 as slight underdogs according to most oddsmakers.

It’s quite remarkable that the Knicks won the last 2 games despite failing to connect on double-digit threes. With their commanding series lead, they’d be foolish to play OG Anunoby here as he recovers from his hamstring injury. That said, closing out a team on the road is never easy — even if you have the clear 3-0 advantage. I’m willing to give Philadelphia the benefit of the doubt and back them to win at least 1 game before they go out in Game 5 at MSG.

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.

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.
