Long-time NBA fan, following the game closely for 21 years now. Joined the Pickswise writing staff for the 2020-21 season and have given out winning picks since. Hopefully we can make some money together! Oh, and I firmly believe Lebron James is not one of the two best basketball players of all time. Yeah, I said it.

Last night I cashed a +548 odds Same Game Parlay, my 2nd winner in 3 days. I’m looking to keep the momentum going with Friday’s 10-game slate. I’ve gone in depth and prepared a best bet for every single game.

Head over to our NBA Picks page for picks on the side and total, but now let’s take a look at my best bets for Friday’s games!

Kings vs Hornets Best Bet: Keon Ellis 2+ made threes (-140)

Ellis has cleared this line 7 times in 10 games while shooting 45% from 3-point land. Charlotte allows the ninth-most 3s to shooting guards this season.

Jazz vs Pacers Best Bet: Myles Turner to record 6+ rebounds (-235)

The Jazz allow the 4th most rebounds to centers this season. Turner has cleared this line in 7 of 10 games, he just had 9 rebounds vs Charlotte.

Suns vs Celtics Best Bet: Devin Booker to score 25+ points (-186)

With Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal out of the lineup, the Suns’ offense will run through Booker. He has cleared this line in back-to-back games, scoring 28 and 39 against Houston and Milwaukee, respectively.

Pistons vs Raptors Best Bet: Jalen Duren to score 10+ points (-196)

Duren has scored 10+ points in 7 straight games, he is averaging 14.2 per game over his last 10 outings.

Blazers vs Bulls Best Bet: Josh Giddey to record a double-double (-150)

He has delivered a double-double in 7 of his last 10 games while posting averages of 20.2 points, 9.4 rebounds and 9.5 assists per game.

Thunder vs Rockets Best Bet: Oklahoma City -6.5 (-112)

OKC won 3 of the 4 meetings so far this season, all 3 wins were by double-digits. They are still very much in play to reach the 70-game win total for this season.

Cavaliers vs Spurs Best Bet: Darius Garland Over 3.5 rebounds (-172)

Garland has cleared this line in 9 of 10 games. San Antonio allows the third-most rebounds overall this season and the 13th most to opposing point guards.

Nuggets vs Warriors Best Bet: Nikola Jokic Over 37.5 points + rebounds (-122)

Jokic is averaging 31.7 points, 13.3 rebounds and 9 assists per game in the last 10 meetings. Golden State does not have a player that can contain him on the inside.

Pelicans vs Lakers Best Bet: Austin Reaves Over 2.5 made threes (-140)

Reaves is on a heater right now – he just had 9 triples in last night’s loss to Golden State. In his last 10 games he’s making 3.3 threes per game on almost 38% efficiency.

Mavericks vs Clippers Best Bet: Dallas +9.5 (-110)

As good as the Clippers have been lately, this line is just too big in my opinion. Anthony Davis is back and healthy; the Mavs need a result here to maintain their grip on the 9th seed.
