CHI Bulls ML (+260)

DEN Nuggets -13.5 (-110)

Parlay odds: +1200

ORL Magic -3.5 over SAC Kings (-112)

More teams than not would be happy with a 40-29 SU record after 69 Games played, but I don’t think that’s the case with the Sacramento Kings. Just a Game after losing to the lowly Washington Wizards, they face a tough Orlando Magic team. Kevin Huerter recently dislocated his shoulder — losing him will be a massive blow to this team’s ambitions. The Kings beat the Magic in the first meeting earlier this season, but it was 138-135 in double-OT.

Orlando enters this game on a perfect 5-0 ATS/SU run. Paolo Banchero finished with a triple-double in their latest win over New Orleans. What’s impressive about this team is their performance on the defensive end where they rank 3rd overall this season, allowing just 110.8 points per 100 possessions. It might take a few games for the Kings to adjust to life without Huerter. Orlando has been really impressive at home this year, going 25-9 SU. The Magic have also covered in 8 of 9 games at the Kia Center and in 7 of 8 against Western Conference opponents. It’s time they ended this run of losses to the Kings, so I’m backing Orlando to cover.

CHI Bulls ML over BOS Celtics (+260)

For the upset of the night I have the Chicago Bulls taking down the Boston Celtics at United Center. Home form is something the Bulls will be counting on in tonight’s Game, as they have lost both meetings vs the Celtics this season. Chicago is a decent 18-17 SU at the United Center, with wins over quality teams like Minnesota and Cleveland in that building.

The Bulls are also a solid 6-4 SU over their last 10 games overall and will have the rest advantage on their side, as the Celtics just played last night in Detroit. Although they are 10-2 SU in games played with no rest, it’s never an ideal scenario playing back-to-backs. Jayson Tatum didn’t play last night due to an ankle issue; he might opt to sit out this game, as well. Chicago has won 2 of the last 3 home games against Boston. If anyone can take down the Cs at this point in time, it’s them.

DEN Nuggets -13.5 over POR Trail Blazers (-110)

The Nuggets are once again heavy favorites as they face the Portland Trail Blazers, who just lost last night to the LA Clippers at home. All 3 meetings so far this season were easy blowout wins for the Nuggets and they are 8-2 SU in the last 10 head-to-head — outscoring the Blazers by almost 8 points per game during that stretch.

Denver also just beat a strong Knicks team by 13 points, which is just 1 point shy of the spread they have to cover on Saturday. Portland has the 4th-worst Net Rating this season at -8.1. Its home form has been particularly atrocious at just 2-13 SU in the last 15 Games played. This team is pretty much done for the season, so I don’t expect it to put up much resistance. Nuggets to dominate.
