Top NBA Odds, Picks & Predictions: Monday (4/1)
There are six NBA games tonight, so that means plenty of sports betting. There are a lot of good bets out there, you just need to know where to look. Here are my best bets of the day!
Monday’s NBA Best Bets
(Odds courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook)
Phoenix Suns @ New Orleans Pelicans
These are two of the better teams in the NBA playing tonight. Either of these teams could come away with tonight’s game. Bettors will want to lower the number of units, but know there is a good betting value with how close this game could be. The only question is who has the better betting value.
The Phoenix Suns have the betting edge with Brandon Ingram listed as out tonight. They have a talented roster, and most importantly, the last time these teams played, they beat the Pelicans 123-109. There is a good chance the game tonight is closer, but the Suns should still come away with the win.
Bet: Phoenix Suns Moneyline (-115)
Atlanta Hawks @ Chicago Bulls
The name of the game when betting on the NBA is consistency, so picking the team that has been consistent all year long is always a good choice. A team that has started a hot streak is also a decent bet, although with a little more risk. The Bulls have been up and down all season long and they are clearly the less consistent team right now.
Additionally, the Atlanta Hawks have hit a hot streak. They have won four of the last five games, with their lone loss coming against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Bucks are one of the best teams in the NBA right now. That hot streak gives them a great chance to win tonight with plus money value.
Bet: Atlanta Hawks Moneyline (+122)
Memphis Grizzlies @ Detroit Pistons
These are two of the worst teams in the NBA. They both struggle to play a complete game and have a handful of injuries. The only thing these teams are playing for is draft picks. That makes this one of the harder picks of the night, but bettors can take advantage of the value.
Either of these teams could win. That means the team with plus money is a good pick. The last time these teams played, the Memphis Grizzlies won by fourteen points. Detroit has only won 13 games this season, and I think the Grizzlies have more experience when it comes to winning games.
Bet: Memphis Grizzlies Moneyline (+118)
