Cavaliers at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Cavaliers 111, Spurs 107

Moneyline

The Cavaliers (-230) will cost you nearly 2 1/2 times your potential return, and that’s just too expensive on the road.

Even if the Spurs were still on their double-digit losing streak, it wouldn’t be a good idea to risk that much money to play Cleveland.

PASS.

Against the spread

The SPURS +6.5 (-115) catching more than 3 buckets at home looks pretty good after San Antonio’s win in Miami.

This is a team playing with a little bit of confidence, although you can expect the Spurs will struggle against the Cavaliers and their No. 1 defense. However, the Cavs are 0-7-1 ATS in the past 8 games on the road.

Love and Mitchell sat out the OKC win, as well as the Sacto loss, and it’s too risky to back the Cavs if 2 of their brightest stars remain sidelined — especially Mitchell. He is averaging 29.0 PPG, 4.9 APG and 4.0 RPG in 23 games this season.

Over/Under

UNDER 222.5 (-115) is a strong play whether or not Love and/or Mitchell are able to play or not.

The Under is 13-3 in the past 16 games overall for the Cavs, who have the league’s best scoring defense (104.8 PPG). The Under is 5-1 in the past 6 games on the road for the Cavs, too.

For the Spurs, the Under is 4-1 in the past 5 games at home.

Lakers at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Lakers 108, Spurs 106

Moneyline

The Lakers are 7-1 in their last 8 games following a double-digit win but their only road win this season was Friday night.

The Spurs are only 3-7 at home.

The Lakers have won 3 of their last 4 games and have both F LeBron James and F Anthony Davis in the lineup and playing their best basketball of the year right now.

BET LAKERS (-150).

Against the spread

The trends show that the Lakers should win, but they also don’t give you confidence about the spread, even against a team struggling as badly as the Spurs.

The Lakers are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 road games facing teams with a losing home record. Their one win and cover was last night.

Back-to-backs have an odd way of being much more competitive in one game or the other.

PASS on the spread.

Over/Under

The Under is 6-1 in the last 7 meetings between the teams in San Antonio and 6-2-1 in their last 9 meetings overall.

Only 3 of the Spurs’ last 10 games have reached 230 total points.

Only 1 of the last 5 for the Lakers has.

BET UNDER 232.5 (-110).

Moneyline

The Spurs have lost all 4 games of their current road trip. They have only 1 win in their last 10 games.

The Lakers have won 2 straight and are 4-5 at home. Most of their issues have been on the road, where they are 0-5.

Neither team is playing great this season, but the Spurs are abysmal right now. But as for the moneyline, PASS.

Against the spread

The Spurs have not lost by fewer than 7 points in their 4-game losing streak. They are 4-5 ATS on the road and have covered the spread once in their road trip.

The Lakers beat the Pistons by 7 and the Nets by 13 in their last 2 games.

Spurs at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 113, Spurs 103

Moneyline

The Spurs are 3-5 on the road but have dropped the first 3 games of their current road trip and have lost 5 straight on the road overall.

The Clippers are only 4-4 at home but have won 3 of their last 4 on their home court.

The Spurs have the league’s worst defensive rating and the Clippers, while they have the league’s worst offensive rating, are No. 2 in defensive rating.

But risking 3.65 times your potential profit on the Clippers (-365) is not wise gambling. PASS.

Against the spread

The Spurs are 9-7 ATS this season and have covered the spread in 4 of their last 6 games and 3 of their last 5 losses.

The Clippers are 7-9 ATS but have covered the spread in 4 of their last 5 wins.

The Spurs do not have a good offense and the Clippers have a great defense.

BET CLIPPERS -8.5 (-115).

Over/Under

The Clippers have had only 3 games hit the Over this season in 16 games. Only 2 of their last 10 games have hit 223 total points or more.

While the Spurs have had 6 of their last 9 reach totals of more than 222, I like the Clippers’ defense to hold things down.

BET UNDER 222.5 (-115).

San Antonio Spurs at Sacramento Kings odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s San Antonio Spurs at Sacramento Kings odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The San Antonio Spurs (6-9) visit the Sacramento Kings (7-6) Thursday for a 10 p.m. ET tip-off from Golden 1 Center. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Spurs vs. Kings odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Spurs come into this one on a 2-game slide with their most recent loss Tuesday at the Portland Trail Blazers 117-110, but they did cover as 8.5-point underdogs. C Jakob Poeltl carried the load offensively with 31 points on 14-for-17 shooting. It was a very close battle in all of the major statistics, but in the end it was the lack of 3-point shooting that lost the game for the Spurs — they shot 31% (9-for-29) behind the arc compared the Blazers’ 46.9% (15-for-32).

The Kings are playing their best basketball in years. They’ve won 4 straight and 3 of those wins came against teams that were thought of as championship contenders. Their most recent win was Tuesday as 1.5-point favorites against the Brooklyn Nets in a 153-121 outing. The Kings had 7 players score in double figures that game, including 31 points from G Terence Davis, who shot 7-for-10 from 3.

Spurs at Kings picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 126, Spurs 118

Moneyline

AVOID.

The Kings (-290) are rolling right now and should win this game, which is why I would steer clear of this costly moneyline. The upset pick — Spurs (+240) — is one I would like if we were looking at the Kings of the first week of the season when they opened 0-4, but they’ve won 7 of 9 since, playing some outstanding basketball. Expect that to continue against a lackluster San Antonio squad.

Against the spread

LEAN KINGS -7.5 (-110).

There is a fair amount of risk associated with this bet.

The Spurs’ mix of terrible defense and mediocre offense is what makes me lean toward the Kings covering the spread Thursday. The Kings have looked phenomenal as of late and have blown out teams that are much better than this Spurs team. Expect the Kings to win by a good margin and cover the 7.5 spread at home.

Over/Under

BET OVER 236.5 (-110) is the BEST BET for this game.

The Spurs and Kings both have bottom-4 defenses in the NBA in terms of opponent points per game, with the Kings allowing 117.0 to rank 27th and the Spurs allowing a league-worst 119.5. Couple that with the fact that the Kings have the 2nd-highest scoring offense (119.5 PPG) in the NBA and the Spurs are in the middle of the pack (112.0 PPG), and we have a recipe for a high-scoring shootout.

The Warriors are coming off a 122-115 loss on the road against the Sacramento Kings Sunday and now face a quick turnaround. Golden State is 0-2 SU/1-1 ATS in 2 games this season when playing on no rest.

Spurs at Warriors picks and predictions

Prediction

Warriors 117, Spurs 113

Moneyline

The Warriors (-370) will cost you more than 3 1/2 times your potential return, and that’s too risky for the defending champs with the way they’re playing lately.

PASS.

Against the spread

SPURS +7.5 (-108) is a solid play catching nearly 4 buckets.

The Spurs are 9-3 ATS in the past 12 games on the road while cashing at a 75% clip across the past 24 games overall (18-6 ATS).

It’s the complete opposite for the Warriors. They’re 3-9 ATS in the past 12 games overall while going 1-4 ATS in the past 5 games following a straight-up loss.

Over/Under

UNDER 231.5 (-105) is the lean here, ever so slightly.

The Spurs have hit the Under in 4 of the past 5 games overall while cashing at a 5-1-1 clip in the past 7 meetings with the Warriors.

Golden State is 3-0-1 to the Under in the past 4 outings, while going 3-1-1 in the past 5 against teams with an overall losing record, too.

Nuggets at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Nuggets 119, Spurs 115

Moneyline

PASS.

I might consider the Spurs at +230, but would ultimately rather play the points.

Against the spread

BET SPURS +6.5 (-103).

San Antonio is in a good buy-low spot at home. It ranks high in many advanced metrics and gets a good number after a tough road loss. The Spurs sit top 10 in offensive rebounding rate (7th) and turnover rate (2nd).

Denver may be the best shooting team in the NBA, but it is just 1-3 ATS as a road favorite this season. It isn’t a situation the Nuggets have excelled in.

The Nuggets aren’t great on the offensive glass, and while they don’t turn the ball over much, their efficiency does dip to 4th-best on the road. Combine it all, and I like San Antonio to cover here.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 233.5 (-112).

The Spurs opponents have the 2nd-best effective shooting rate in the NBA which is a clear cause for concern. On top of that, the Spurs rank 2nd in pace.

So, they will want to push the pace and may have little answer for the Nuggets offensively. These teams are a combined 10-9 O/U this season.

Spurs at Nuggets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nuggets 119, Spurs 110

Moneyline

The Spurs are 3-1 on the road this season, while the Nuggets are a perfect 3-0 at home.

The Nuggets average 115.1 points per game and the Spurs allow the 2nd-most points in the league at 120.7 per game.

I like the Nuggets (-650) for the home win but the moneyline lacks value.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Nuggets do not typically follow up convincing wins with another convincing win. They are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a win of 10 or more points, dating back to last season. They had a 12-point win over the Thunder Thursday.

The Spurs lost by 6 in their last game, failing to cover as 3.5-point underdogs. They are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games dating to last season.

BET SPURS +11.5 (-110).

Over/Under

The Spurs may allow the 2nd-most points per game in the league (120.7), but this is a high projected total.

None of the Nuggets’ last 4 games have passed this projected total.

Half of the Spurs’ games this season have not reached 236 total points.

BET UNDER 235.5 (-110).

LA Clippers at San Antonio Spurs odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s LA Clippers at San Antonio Spurs odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The LA Clippers (4-4) visit AT&T Center Friday to face the San Antonio Spurs (5-3). Tip-off is at 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Clippers vs. Spurs odds, and our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Clippers were lucky enough to face the lowly Houston Rockets in back-to-back games, winning 95-93 Monday and 109-101 Wednesday. However, the Clippers struggled to keep those game out of reach with F Kawhi Leonard inactive, shooting 9-of-36 and 12-of-33 from beyond the arc in those games, respectively.

The Spurs are coming off an embarrassing 143-100 loss to the Toronto Raptors Wednesday. Toronto shot 53.8% from the floor, but more importantly, only had 11 turnovers compared to San Antonio’s 23.

Clippers at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Spurs 110, Clippers 105

Moneyline

San Antonio is 2-0 after a loss this season and without Kawhi the Clippers’ offense leans heavily on G Paul George, who led the team in turnovers against the Rockets.

The line has moved away from the Spurs but this is a great bounce-back spot for a surprising San Antonio team. Although if the risk is too much you can always take them with the points.

LEAN SPURS (+150).

Against the spread

Good teams win, but great teams cover. Right now the Clippers are doing neither, and they are near the bottom of the ATS standings with a 2-6 record. The Clippers are also 0-6 ATS in their previous 6 games when their opponent scores 100 or more points in its previous game.

The Spurs are 2-0 this season ATS after a loss, and in their last 4 home games they are 4-0 ATS when facing a team with a winning road record (the Clippers are 3-2 away from Crypto.com Arena).

BET SPURS +4.5 (-103).

Over/Under

Both teams trend toward the Under. The Under is 7-1 in the Clippers’ last 8 games and is 6-1 in their last 7 games after a win.

San Antonio has gone Under in 5 straight home games when facing a team with a winning road record.

LEAN UNDER 225.5 (-108).

Toronto Raptors at San Antonio Spurs odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Toronto Raptors at San Antonio Spurs odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Toronto Raptors (4-3) visit AT&T Center Wednesday to take on the San Antonio Spurs (5-2). Tip is set for 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Raptors vs. Spurs odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Raptors have won 3 of their last 4 games. They took down the Atlanta Hawks 139-109 as 2-point favorites on Halloween but lost to the Philadelphia 76ers 112-90 as 3.5-point favorites Friday.

Toronto is led by F Pascal Siakam, who is averaging 26.1 points per game. It has many capable scoring options with 6 players averaging double figures.

The Spurs are off to a surprisingly hot start this season. They have won 2 straight games, beating the Chicago Bulls 129-124 Friday and taking down the Minnesota Timberwolves 107-98 Sunday, both at home.

They are also diverse offensively, having 6 players in double figures as well. F Keldon Johnson leads the team with 23.9 points per game while putting up the 2nd-most rebounds (5.4) and 4th-most assists (4.1) for the club.

Raptors at Spurs key injuries

  • G Devin Vassell (knee) out

For most recent updates: Official NBA injury report.

Raptors at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Raptors 116, Spurs 111

Moneyline

PASS.

The Spurs (+215) will struggle to score if Johnson and Vassell are out. It would also hurt them defensively. I would pass here given the unknown with Johnson.

The Raptors (-280) are absolutely unplayable due to a lack of value.

Against the spread

LEAN SPURS +6.5 (-108).

This handicap really only applies if Johnson plays. He’s key to the Spurs’ entire gameplan, and although he played against the Wolves, he is questionable tonight. Johnson averages 3.9 threes per game, so his spacing helps quite a bit as well.

Nonetheless, the Spurs rank top 10 in effective field goal percentage and offensive rebounding rate. The extra opportunities and how they convert those to points are good reasons to back them.

They’re also 2-1 straight-up at home this season while the Raptors are just 1-2 on the road.

Over/Under

BET OVER 224.0 (-110).

I like this regardless if Johnson is active or not. The Spurs have struggled defensively this season and are 20th in defensive rating.

They also have the league’s 2nd-worst turnover rate. Toronto forces turnovers at the 7th-highest rate, so it should be able to create takeaways and keep the pace up in this one.

The Spurs sit 3rd in pace, and although the Raptors sit 28th, the potential absence of VanVleet may make them step it up.
