NBA Picks

Phoenix lays 3.5 in Portland without Devin Booker in a late-night road spot after a blowout home loss. The market is overvaluing the Suns’ overall record while the Trail Blazers catch them with Avdija, Sharpe, and Grant healthy at home. Bash breaks down why this spread should be closer to a pick’em and why Portland’s situational edge makes them the play.

Miami’s laying 4.5 at home against an Atlanta squad missing critical frontcourt pieces. With Onyeka Okongwu out and Kristaps Porzingis questionable, the Hawks face a rotation crunch against a Heat team that just demolished Chicago by 43. The frontcourt mismatch favors Miami heavily.

The 76ers are riding a four-game win streak into Chase Center, getting 2.5 points against a Warriors team missing Jimmy Butler and Jonathan Kuminga. Tyrese Maxey is averaging 29.2 PPG, and Golden State’s defense has been shredded without their top rotation pieces. This spread is too short for the healthier team.

Detroit lays 4 points at home against a Denver team dealing with rotation depth issues. The Pistons’ efficiency edge and home dominance make this short number look longer than it appears.

Charlotte is laying 7 points at home against a depleted Pelicans squad that’s 5-19 on the road and missing Dejounte Murray. The Hornets are riding a six-game winning streak with balanced scoring from Miller, Ball, and Sexton, and their pace advantage should bury a New Orleans team with no floor general. Bash breaks down why Charlotte covers at home.

Indiana is just 13-36, yet they’ve covered in 16 of 26 home games this season. With a 219.0 total on the board, can Amen Thompson replicate his near triple-double to secure the pick? We dive into the rotation math and pace factors.

The Timberwolves dominated Saturday’s meeting, but back spasms for Edwards and a thumb injury for Randle have shifted the value. We analyze the Grizzlies’ revenge-game potential to identify the sharpest best bet.

With Keegan Murray out and Westbrook questionable, Sacramento’s offensive rhythm is compromised. This betting guide delivers a comprehensive total pick and side analysis for the February 1st tip-off on NBA League Pass and MNMT.
