Myles Turner o18.5 points -107 1.07u to win 1u
Houston Rockets -5 -108 1.08 Units to win 1u
LA Clippers -3.5 -108 1.08u to win 1u

First up I like a prop in the Milwaukee/Indiana matchup tonight. Myles Turner has been a beast for the Pacers this season and in this particular matchup with the Bucks he's reached 20 points 3 out of the 4 times they've played each other this season and I look for him to do it here in a game that has another lofty total of 257.5.

My next play is on the Rockets laying 5 at home against the Nets. The Nets have been on the road for quite some time now and its clear that they are just hoping to get back home soon because its been miserable for them. I look for Houston to play well again at home here and cover the full game spread against a reeling Nets team.

My last play is on the Clippers tonight laying 3.5 on the road against the Suns. The Suns don't have Kevin Durant tonight and because of that I feel like this line should be around -6 for the Clippers. They've been rolling lately and the Suns are very inconsistent because they've hardly had their full squad for a game this year. I think the Clippers can get the job done here on the road so I'm laying the 3.5 with confidence.

Thanks for your write-up and good luck tonight, Jr.

Can never complain about a 2-1 night in the NBA even though I could've swept the board if Myles Turner scored 4 more points against the Bucks. The Rockets and Clippers continue to play well and took advantage of reeling and shorthanded opponents on Wednesday night to get the cover. Onto Thursday where its a light two game card so we'll see if I have anything for Thursday.

Nikola Jokic o26.5 points -114 1.14u to win 1u
Denver/Golden State o235.5 -110 1.1u to win 1u

I like a player prop and the total in tonights Denver/Golden State marquee matchup on TNT. First I look for Nikola Jokic to do whatever he wants tonight against a Golden State team that struggles defensively especially against elite big men. Jokic hasn't cleared this number in the last two games but I think he has a monster game here because the Warriors can't stop him.

I played the total up and over 235.5 because I feel like this game will be very competitive and these two teams are going to run and gun because that's Golden State's only shot at pulling off an upset victory here. I like the over in a pace up game for the Nuggets who should run with the Warriors and that will lead to a lot of scoring so over for me.

Nice easy 2-0 night as Jokic dominated like I expected including hitting the game winner to beat my Warriors at the buzzer in what was an incredible shot. The total flew over as these two teams really play to the over when they get together because the Warriors sort of force the Nuggets to play faster when they would normally like to slow it down and play through Jokic. Hope to continue my hot streak on tomorrows's slate as its another big day in the NBA on Friday night.

Indiana Pacers -3 -107 1.07u to win 1u
Detroit/Golden State o238.5 -108 -1.08u to 1u
Pascal Siakem o24.5 -125 1.25u to win 1u

First up tonight I like the Pacers to take care of business at home against the Hawks. The Pacers have finally recovered from the IST which led to them struggling immediately following their run to the IST final. They've won and covered each of the last 5 games and I see them covering a short number here tonight against a Hawks team that struggles to defend on the road and in general.

Next up I like the Warriors and Pistons to fly way over the total tonight. The Warriors have to be a little deflated after losing a heartbreaker last night to the Nuggets. I don't think we see much defense played tonight because the Pistons as ever since the Pistons changed their lineup to include Kevin Knox in the starting lineup they've played to the over. I don't think the Warriors will be very interested in defending tonight and I think they will just try to win with their offense. 238.5 seems too low so I'm going over this total with confidence.

Last up I took a player prop in the Kings/Raptors game. I'm on Pascal Siakem to score more than 24.5 points tonight against a Kings team that struggles to defend big men. Domantas Sabonis is a good player but he isn't known for his defense so I think Pascal can absolutely eat tonight in a game that should feature a lot of scoring.

I like your Pacers game, JR. The Pacers are very solid rn. Good luck tonight!

A 1-2 night is certainly disappointing especially after I started it with a rocking chair winner with the Pacers. Unfortunately the Warriors and Pistons couldn't score in the first quarter and their game stayed well under the total. Pascal Siakem also didn't go over his point prop so I have my first losing night in a couple of days. Hopefully I can bounce back tomorrow and get back on track.

Yes, recover and bounce back today, JR.

New York Knicks -9 -110 1.1u to win 1u
Derrick White o2.5 3 pointers made +100 1u to win 1u

My first play is on the Knicks tonight on the road against the Wizards. This is a big spread and the Knicks are coming off a huge win against the Sixers last night so this may be a sleepy spot against the Wizards who are one of the worst teams in the league but I don't think so because this is exactly the kind of spot where coach Thibodeau will have his team ready to really lay the wood to a bad Wizards team. Give me the Knicks to blow out the Wizards on the road today.

My next play is a player prop in the Pacers/Celtics game. This is a game that's going to feature a lot of scoring as the total is 248 and I expect the Celtics to shoot a lot of 3's especially Derrick White. I think that he can hit at least 3 threes and at plus money I'm willing to bet that will happen in this fast paced game.

1-1 night last night as the Knicks took care of the Wizards on the road for an easy cover but Derrick White only played 24 minutes so he didn't go over 2.5 3's. Onto today's slate and hopefully some winners.

Minnesota Timberwolves -3 -108 1.08u to win 1u
LA Clippers -5.5 -110 1.1u to win 1u

First up I like the Timberwolves tonight on the road against a shorthanded Mavericks squad. The Mavs are missing Derrick Lively so that gives the Wolves a huge matchup advantage inside. I think they can cover this short number here on the road.

My next play is backing the Clippers tonight against the rival Lakers. This is simply a play that is backing the hot team and fading the team thats been reeling lately. The Clippers are hot and the Lakers have lost 4 in a row and are 3-10 since winning the IST. I think the Clippers will have no trouble winning this game and if they do they'll cover the 5.5 points.

Houston Rockets ML +149 1u to win 1.49u

Only one play for me tonight on a light Monday card. I took Houston on the ML against the Heat on the road. This one is an interesting game because I expect Miami to come out strong early here and probably lead going into the second Quarter or even Halftime because that's what they do. They lead early and fall apart late. I think Houston can come back here on the road and steal this one so I took them on the ML and bypassed the 4 points they're getting as underdogs.

Just wasn't my night tonight as my only play in the NBA also lost. Luckily there is always tomorrow and more action to pick myself up including a 5 game card in the NBA. I hope to be able to get back on track on a shorter card.
