Top NBA Odds, Picks & Predictions: Monday (1/1)

Happy New Year!!!l There is no better way to start the new year than betting on the NBA. That means there are plenty of games to bet on tonight. Here are my best bets of the day! 

Monday’s NBA Odds & Picks

Houston Rockets vs. Detroit Pistons

The Detroit Pistons have to be excited for the new year. They finally broke their 27-game losing streak. Detriot is going into the new year fresh. They still have to improve to be consistent. Tonight will be the test to see if they have gotten any better. 

The Houston Rockets look like an entirely new team. They have a couple of players who have changed their entire team dynamic. The new team is good on both defense and offense. That will allow the Rockets to win this game by seven or more points. 

Houston Rockets -7 Points -115 @Caesers


Milwaukee Bucks vs. Indiana Pacers

These teams have talented rosters. During sports with long seasons, there is betting value in selecting the team with the better betting value. The Bucks are the better team, but they do not have the same betting value as the Pacers. 

The Pacers have won two of the three games this year. That means there is an opportunity for them to win tonight. Bettors will want to focus on teams with good betting value for the rest of the season. This game is one of those opportunities that the Pacers have value. 

Indiana Pacers Moneyline +220@Caesers


Denver Nuggets vs. Charlotte Hornets

The Denver Nuggets are the better team in this matchup. Once they start scoring, they will rest players. That will keep this game close. The line is too large tonight to bet on the Nuggets to cover. 

Charlotte kept this game close the last time these teams played. They lost by seven points. There is a good chance that the game is about the same. The Nuggets will take this as an opportunity to get some rest. Take the Hornets to keep the game within 15 points. 

Charlotte Hornets +15 Points -110 @ Caesers
