Like most Lithuanians, I started watching basketball from the age of six. I'm based out in London and played basketball at the University of Lincoln here in the UK. I had always had an interest in the NBA but things really took off in the summer of 2010. That year Linas Kleiza led Lithuania to 3rd place at the World Championships and signed with the Toronto Raptors to replace the departing Chris Bosh. I've been a Raptors fan since that day and I've not missed a game since. I've been handicapping games for more than a decade, specializing in player props.

Denver Nuggets -2 over Minnesota Timberwolves (-110)

While the Nuggets were in action last night, taking down the Boston Celtics, it should not impact them too much against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Nuggets have won 2 of the 3 games they have played on the 2nd night of back-to-backs. They will also get Jamal Murray back after he was held out due to injury management last night. The visitors have a winning road record this season too. The Timberwolves, on the other hand, are .500 at home and have lost their last 6 games overall. Their offense lacks a scoring threat on the inside without Karl-Anthony Towns. It is tough to see them end their losing streak against the top team in the Western Conference.

New Orleans Pelicans ML over Philadelphia 76ers (+136)

The status of Joel Embiid is worth monitoring ahead of this one. He is listed as day-to-day with back soreness. With Zion Williamson coming at him in the paint here, that back could get tested a lot throughout the night if he takes to the floor. The sides have faced off in the last week with Embiid playing, when the Pelicans picked up a comfortable 127-116 win. They won each quarter in the process, with Zion Williamson and CJ McCollum combining for 78 points. Herbert Jones has since returned for the squad too, giving the Pelicans a terrific defender they can use against James Harden. They should have a real chance of taking the season series here.

Golden State Warriors -5.5 alternate spread over Atlanta Hawks (+164)

The Warriors have been the best home team in the league this season, winning 16 of their 18 games. Their points differential in those games is +9.7, the 2nd-best mark in the league. They are taking on an Atlanta Hawks team that has lost each of their last 3 games. The Warriors have been getting terrific offensive production from Jordan Poole and Klay Thompson, which both players averaging at least 30 points per game over the last week. With Trae Young and Bogdan Bogdanovic being defensive liabilities for the visitors, the Warriors should be able to exploit them throughout the night. Look for them to pick up a comfortable win as a result.
