Monday’s Best NBA Bets

(Odds courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook)

Dallas Mavericks @ Chicago Bulls

The Chicago Bulls have been up and down all season long. That means they are inconsistent and lacking talent. The last time they played the Dallas Mavericks, they lost 105-114. The Bulls need to consistently beat the best teams in the NBA before there is betting value on them. 

The Dallas Mavericks are the more talented team, with Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. Both of those players are talented and can score whenever they want. Additionally, the Bulls lack the defense to stop them. Bettors can take advantage of the better team with a small spread. 

Pick: Dallas Mavericks -3.5 Points (-110)

Charlotte Hornets @ Detroit Pistons

These are two of the worst teams in the NBA. They both struggle defensively, which means there will be scoring opportunities. The Pistons have a couple of players who can score; Cade Cunningham and Jaden Ivey are both solid players that can add to the points total. 

The Charlotte Hornets are slightly better defensively than the Pistons. Scoring-wise, they have Miles Bridges and Brandon Miller, both of whom can score down low. The scorers in this game have good matchups, and those good matchups will mean high-quality shots and more points to help hit the over.

Pick: Total Points Over 218.5 (-110)

Golden State Warriors @ San Antonio Spurs

It’s been a rough season for San Antonio. They have only won fourteen games out of 64, but there there is a small chance that they win the game tonight. The Spurs are playing for a draft pick at this point in the season, so you never know what you will see on the floor.

On the other side, the Golden State Warriors are still in the hunt for a playoff spot. They are more experienced and better defensively. That will give them the advantage in the game tonight. Even though the Warriors have struggled, they are the more consistent team. Bettors can use that consistency tonight. 

Pick: Golden State Warriors Moneyline (-190)
