Toronto Raptors @ Brooklyn Nets (10:30am)
This game neither team have much interest in winning, therefore we should see Scottie play far less than his usual minutes.
With Toronto rotating the resting starters, we should see Barrett and Barnes suit up and Poeltl and Quickley taking their turn in street clothes.
Barnes has been serviceable and definitely can clear this line if he’s shooting well. But with a minutes restriction we should see his contribution way down and hopefully Brooklyn can make it hard for him. The Nets have been the hardest team in the league for Power Forwards to score and rebound against, over the past three weeks.
SGM: Barnes Under 25.5 PR/ Shead 6+ Assists/ Williams 10+ Points = $4.20
Next Best
Boston Celtics @ Phoenix Suns (1:00pm)
Couldn’t get the chocolates for us last game, after finishing with a disappointing 16 against Sacramento. Playing the Suns and with the injury to Tatum, this now becomes too enticing to ignore.
Tatum rolled his ankle badly last game and didn’t return. He is questionable for this game but with Boston pretty much locked at the 2 seed, it would be madness to risk him. Porzingis without Tatum should see a handy bump to his already handy 28% usage rating.
Brook Lopez just had 23 points against Phoenix last game and I can see K.P doing similar damage. Phoenix are allowing opposing centres to score at a 24% increase over the past three weeks and a massive 53% from long range.
SGM: Porzingis 20+ Points/ Porzingis 3+ Threes/ Dunn 10+ Points = $5.25
Value Bet
Washington Wizards @ Philadelphia 76ers (10:00am)
This is going to be such a terrible game with neither team wanting to win, in fact I’ll go as far as saying they will be actively trying to lose.
With draft lottery implications heavily affected by the results of the next few weeks, the tank is on. Washington currently sit dead last in the Eastern Conference with the 76ers two spots above them.
Brooklyn play Toronto tomorrow and if Brooklyn lose, and the 76ers win, Philly will move up to 12th. Washington on the other hand are 3 wins off the next team, being Charlotte, so they have some room if they accidently win one. Realise that this is the last team in the East who have 15 wins all year, but great odds for what’s really a coin toss.
SGM: Wizards Win/ Sarr 20+ Points/ Yabusele 8+ Rebounds = $9.00
