There are 8 games in the NBA on Wednesday night. Two games have a line of 4 points or less and 3 have a line of at least 13.5 points. Three games have a total of at least 232 points. As always, stay up to date on the latest injury news since lines can change. Bets may be added throughout the day if additional spots that arise, so be sure to check back later in the day. My record is 59-46-1 for the season. Here are my picks for tonight.
James Harden over 34.5 points + assists (-115 on Caesars)
James Harden has been dominant in his first 2 games with the 76ers. After shooting 41.4% with Brooklyn, Harden has shot 57.7% from the field with the 76ers. Harden had 27 points and 12 assists against Minnesota in his first game and 29 points and 16 assists against the Knicks on Sunday and gets the same matchup tonight. Harden already is clicking with his new teammates and the Knicks have allowed at least 115 points in 6 of the last 10 games.
De’Aaron Fox over 30.5 points + assists (-105 on Caesars)
De’Aaron Fox has seen his usage go up since the trade of Tyrese Haliburton. Fox averaged 27 points and 6.1 assists in February. He has at least 9 assists in 3 of the last 4 games, including 10 in each of the last 2. He has scored at least 26 points in 8 of the last 9 games and his points prop is 24.5 points. Fox has gone over this line in 3 of the last 4 games with totals of 39, 36 and 42. The game total against the Pelicans is 233.5 points. The Pelicans rank 20th in defensive efficiency.
Tyrese Haliburton over 16.5 points (-112 on FanDuel)
Tyrese Haliburton has been excellent since being traded to Indiana from Sacramento. He is averaging 20.3 points, 10.1 assists, 4.6 rebounds and 3.1 3-pointers per game in 7 games. Haliburton has topped this points total in 6 games with Indiana. He has scored at least 21 points in 5 games and gets the same matchup against the Magic as on Monday, when he scored 23 points. Even when Malcolm Brogdon returned on Sunday, Haliburton still scored 22 points against a good Boston defense. The Magic have been playing at a fast pace and rank 22nd in defensive efficiency. Bettors can also look at Haliburton’s over 2.5 3-pointers, which is +140. He has gone over that in 5 of 7 games with Indiana.
