Kings at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Kings 130, Spurs 120

Moneyline

PASS.

The Kings (-270) should win, but there is no need to bet more than 2 1/2 times your potential profit on the moneyline when they should win by margin. Bet the spread or total instead.

Against the spread

BET KINGS -6.5 (-120).

Sacramento is 4-1 ATS as an away favorite this season and 5-0 ATS after winning by 20 or more points in its previous game. The Spurs are not a good bounce-back team and are just 14-15 ATS after a loss. Lay the points.

Over/Under

BET OVER 244.5 (-115).

The Over is 4-0 in Sacramento’s last 4 games overall and 5-0 in San Antonio’s last 5 after failing to cover the spread in its previous game. The Kings should have no problem scoring vs. the Spurs as Sacramento is 1st in offensive efficiency over the last 3 games and San Antonio is 30th in opponent points per game (133.3) over that span. The Over is 3-1 in the last 4 meetings and should hit again Sunday.

Warriors vs. Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Warriors 116, Spurs 115

Moneyline

PASS.

The Warriors (-350) should be able to bounce back now that G Stephen Curry (shoulder) has had a game to shake off the rust after an 11-game absence. However, the price is too high for a team that is 3-16 on the road. Bet the spread or total instead.

Against the spread

BET SPURS +8.5 (-110).

This is practically a home game for the Spurs who are catching too many points vs. the worst road team record-wise. San Antonio has covered in 7 of its last 8 games and should be able to keep it close against a Warriors team that is 1-7 ATS when playing as a favorite away from Chase Center. Take the points.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 243.5 (-108).

This number is too high considering these teams tend to play low-scoring games against each other and the Under is 6-1-1 in the last 8 meetings. The Under is 4-1-1 in Golden State’s last 6 games vs. teams with a losing record and Friday should be another low-scoring affair as both teams tighten up defensively on national television.

San Antonio Spurs at Memphis Grizzlies odds, picks and predictions

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

The San Antonio Spurs (13-28) meet the Memphis Grizzlies (22-18) on Wednesday at the FedEx Forum in the 2nd game of a back-to-back set. Tip-off is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Spurs vs. Grizzlies odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Spurs have dropped 5 of the last 6 games, but they have been very competitive. San Antonio has covered 6 of the last 7 games, including Monday’s 121-113 loss in Memphis as 11-point underdogs as the Over connected. The Over is 14-2 in the last 16 games for the Spurs.

Grizzlies

F Brandon Clarke (hip) out
F Ja Morant (thigh) questionable

For most recent updates: Official NBA injury report.

Spurs at Grizzlies picks and predictions

Prediction

Grizzlies 125, Spurs 118

Moneyline

The Grizzlies (-1100) will cost you 11 times your potential return, and that’s quite expensive. There is also a little concern backing Memphis with Morant listed as questionable due to his thigh injury.

PASS.

Against the spread

The SPURS +13.5 (-108) might not be winning a lot of games lately, but they have been covering plenty of games. While the Spurs are just 5-11 ATS in the last 16 on the road, they covered the front end of this set. They’re also 6-1 ATS in the last 7 games against winning teams, while going 6-1 ATS in the last 7 when working on a day of rest, too.

Memphis has been playing down to its competition, going just 1-3-1 ATS in the last 5 at home against teams with a road winning percentage of under .400, including Monday’s non-cover against San Antonio.

Over/Under

OVER 237.5 (-110) is the best play on the board.

The Over is perfect in the last 9 games on the road for San Antonio, while going 16-5 in the last 21 games overall. The Over is 10-4 in the last 14 tries against teams with an overall winning mark, too.

For the Grizzlies, the Over has hit in 4 in a row, and 5 of the last 7 games at the FedEx Forum. The Over is also 4-0 in the last 4 games when their opponent scores 100 or more points in the previous outing.

Spurs at Grizzlies picks and predictions

Prediction

Grizzlies 120, Spurs 107

Moneyline

PASS.

The Grizzlies had to go to overtime to escape San Antonio with a 124-122 win in their last meeting Nov. 9. The Grizzlies (-600) should win Monday, but there is no need to risk 6 times your potential profit on the ML in this divisional matchup. Bet the spread or total instead.

Against the spread

BET GRIZZLIES -11.5 (-110).

Even if Morant sits out again with thigh soreness, the Grizzlies should be able to win by margin Monday vs. a bottom-3 team in the Spurs. F Keldon Johnson could potentially return for San Antonio, but shouldn’t be too effective coming off a hamstring injury. The Grizzlies are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 head-to-head meetings and should have a better showing at home than their overtime win at San Antonio Nov. 9. Lay the points.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 237.5 (-108).

This is too many points for this divisional matchup. These teams tend to play low-scoring games against each other and the Under is 5-1 in their last 6 meetings. Look for the Spurs’ bottom-10 offense to regress toward the mean after putting up an average of 117 points over their last 3 games.

Boston Celtics at San Antonio Spurs odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Boston Celtics at San Antonio Spurs odds and lines, with NBA expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Boston Celtics (27-12) wrap up a 4-game road trip against the San Antonio Spurs (13-26) Saturday. Tip-off at AT&T Center is scheduled for 6 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Celtics vs. Spurs odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Celtics lost the first 2 games on the trip, but they picked up a resounding 124-95 victory against the Dallas Mavericks Thursday. Boston’s cover as a 3-point favorite snapped an 0-3 against the spread (ATS) skid.

The Spurs halted a 3-game losing skid with a 121-109 victory at home against the Detroit Pistons Friday, covering as a 1.5-point favorite. San Antonio is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 outings despite not having many wins lately.

Celtics at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Celtics 123, Spurs 115

Moneyline

The Celtics (-850) will cost you 8 1/2 times your potential return, and that’s just not a good long-term betting strategy. Even as part of a parlay with multiple teams, there is just no value in betting on the heavy favorite.

PASS.

Against the spread

SPURS +12.5 (-105) is worth a play as they look to defend their home court.

The Spurs might not be ticking off a lot of wins lately, but they have been competitive, going 4-1 ATS in the past 5 games overall. San Antonio has also cashed in 4 of the past 5 games against teams with a winning overall record.

The Celtics are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 road games while going 1-4-1 ATS in the past 6 games against losing teams, too. The C’s have covered in just 1 of the past 6 trips to the Alamo, too, while going 7-19-1 ATS in the past 27 meetings in this series.

Over/Under

OVER 235.5 (-108) seems like a huge number, but it’s a good play.

The Over is 9-4 in the past 13 meetings between these sides and is 5-2 in the past 7 meetings in San Antonio. More importantly, the Spurs are dead-last in defense, allowing 120.6 PPG. Look for plenty of points in San Antonio.

San Antonio Spurs at New York Knicks odds, picks and predictions

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

The San Antonio Spurs (12-25) battle the New York Knicks (20-18) at Madison Square Garden Wednesday. Tip from New York City is set for 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Spurs vs. Knicks odds, and make our expert NBA picks and predictions.

The Knicks rocked the Phoenix Suns 102-83 Monday, covering as 3-point home favorites. That was their 2nd straight cover and 6th in their last 10 games to improve to 20-16-2 against the spread (ATS) this season. New York is top 3 in both opponents’ field goal percentage (45.2%, 2nd) and opponents’ 3-point field goal percentage (34.0%, 3rd).

The Spurs were destroyed at the Brooklyn Nets 139-103 Monday, failing to cover as 11.5-point road underdogs. The Spurs are just 5-12 straight up on the road and 4-6 ATS over their last 10 games.

Spurs at Knicks picks and predictions

Prediction

Knicks 118, Spurs 113

Moneyline

PASS.

The Knicks (-400) have been worse at home than on the road, posting just a 9-10 home record.

While they are likely to win it is not wise as the risk is not worth the reward. The Spurs have some value to pull off the upset, but I’d prefer to play the spread.

Against the spread

BET SPURS +9.5 (-115).

The Spurs have covered 3 of their last 5 games and do have the firepower with F Keldon Johnson to keep pace with New York. The Knicks also won’t abuse the Spurs’ defensive weaknesses.

New York ranks 25th in field goal percentage (45.7%) and 3-point field goal percentage (33.9%); their defense is their main strength which bodes well for San Antonio.

The Spurs are 6th in the NBA in offensive rebounding rate while the Knicks rank 19th in defensive rebounding, so those extra opportunities should help the high-tempo San Antonio offense.

The Knicks are 1-3 ATS over their last 4 home games and 1-3 straight up in those games as well. They are just 3-4 ATS over their last 7. Considering the strength-on-weakness factors and recent trends, back the SPURS +9.5 (-115).

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 226.5 (-112).

The Knicks have gone Over in 6 of their last 8 games and have scored at least 110 in 4 of their last 6. The Spurs are 21-15-1 O/U this season and play at an ultra-fast pace.

San Antonio ranks 10th in pace and should have ample extra opportunities on the glass. The Spurs, due to a mixture of the pace and their terrible defense, have gone Over in 8 straight games.

Back the OVER 226.5 (-112).

The Nets beat the Charlotte Hornets 123-106 on the road Saturday, covering as 6-point road favorites. Brooklyn has been on a tear as of late, covering 7 of its last 10 and winning 11 in a row outright. Four of those were at home, and the Nets covered just 2. Brooklyn has the No. 1 field goal percentage in the NBA (51.2%).

The Spurs have covered 3 of their last 4 and are coming off a 126-125 loss to the Dallas Mavericks, covering as 7-point home underdogs.

Spurs at Nets picks and predictions

Prediction

Nets 125, Spurs 115

Moneyline

PASS.

The Nets are surging and rightfully strong favorites, but at (-600), they are unplayable to win outright. Brooklyn is 12-5 at home this season while San Antonio is 5-11 on the road.

Against the spread

BET SPURS +12.5 (-112).

The Spurs have been competing well lately and are 3-1 ATS in their last 4. Against top sides like Dallas and Utah, they were able to lose by 1 and win outright.

The presence of F Keldon Johnson should aid both limiting F Kevin Durant and the flowing of the Spurs attack. Brooklyn has been favorites of double digits just once in its last 10, a 143-113 win over Golden State.

The Spurs are a well-coached team should be able to keep this game within 13. The Nets are just 1-3 ATS as a double-digit favorite this season.

Back the SPURS +12.5 (-112).

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 235.5 (-110).

The Spurs have gone over in 9 of their last 10 and in 7 straight. While their offense has been playing well, scoring at least 120 in 3 of their last 4, the Spurs defense has been awful, allowing at least 120 in 5 of their last 6.

The Nets have 2 elite playmakers who should be able to abuse the league’s worst defense by efficiency. The Spurs also rank 10th in pace, so they should want to push the tempo.

Brooklyn is 6-4 O/U in its last 10 as well. Considering the trends and the porous Spurs defense, back the OVER 235.5 (-110).

Spurs at Thunder picks and predictions

Prediction

Thunder 119, Spurs 114

Moneyline

PASS.

The Thunder are the better side, but they certainly haven’t been good enough to bet at (-260). OKC is 9-8 straight up at home, and the Spurs are 5-10 straight up on the road.

Against the spread

BET SPURS +6.5 (-105).

The Spurs are finally healthy, and with F Keldon Johnson coming off a 21-point effort along with other players like G Devin Vassell stepping up in their win over Utah, San Antonio should be able to hang with OKC.

The Spurs have covered 5 of their last 9 as well. At full strength, like we saw earlier in the season when they won 5 of their first 7, their roster is capable of hanging with anyone.

The Thunder are just 3-6 straight up in their last 9 games and 5-4 ATS over that span. However, they failed to cover the 2 times they were favored. Ultimately, back the SPURS +6.5 (-105) here.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 236.5 (-105).

The Thunder have gone Under in 7 of their last 10 games. They also rank 10th in opponents’ FG percentage (46.5%), so they do have a competent defense.

The Spurs have gone Over in 4 straight, but have only topped 117 in 2 of those 4. Considering this high of a total and the Thunder’s competence defensively, I would play the UNDER 236.5 (-105) for a partial unit.

Jazz at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Jazz 122, Spurs 115

Moneyline

PASS.

The Spurs have struggled lately, but the Jazz are just 7-11 on the road. The odds are justified, but backing a road favorite at (-190) doesn’t make sense. Similarly, the Spurs haven’t been good enough recently to back at (+160).

Against the spread

BET JAZZ -4.5 (-110).

The Jazz are 10-8 ATS as a road team this season. Similarly, the Spurs are 7-9 ATS as the home team.

Utah continues to surprise fans, but behind F Lauri Markkanen, which San Antonio may not have an answer for, Utah has performed well against the spread on the road.

The Jazz sit 6th in offensive rebounding rate while the Spurs are 26th in defensive rebounding rate. Utah is going to have second-chance opportunities which should mean it can pull ahead with ease.

Considering the season-long trends and that strength-on-weakness, and ultimately, back the JAZZ -4.5 (-110).

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 235.5 (-103).

Utah is 18-17 O/U while San Antonio is 16-15-1 O/U. As noted earlier, the Spurs’ defense has been among the worst in the NBA which justifies this sky-high total. They also sit 8th in pace with the Jazz 13th, so this game should be played at a high tempo.

With Utah set to get extra opportunities on the glass and the Spurs having a fully healthy roster with offensive weapons like F Keldon Johnson, back the OVER 235.5 (-103), but considering the high total, only play this for a partial unit.

Trail Blazers at Spurs picks and predictions

Prediction

Trail Blazers 122, Spurs 112

Moneyline

The Trail Blazers (-250) will cost you 2 1/2 times your potential return, and that’s too expensive even though Portland has been on a roll lately.

The Spurs (+210) cannot be trusted, however, even though San Antonio has won a couple of games lately as a big underdog, especially due to a handful of injuries.

PASS.

Against the spread

The TRAIL BLAZERS -6.5 (-110) have covered 5 in a row while going 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games on the road.

On the flip side, the Spurs have covered just 3 of the past 12 games overall and have cashed just 2 of the previous 7 at home. The Spurs are also 2-5 ATS in the past 7 against teams with a winning overall mark.

Over/Under

OVER 232.5 (-105) is the play in this Hump Day battle down south.

The Over has cashed in 8 of the past 11 meetings in San Antonio. The Over is also 12-4-1 in the past 17 games against winning teams for the Spurs.

There are a handful of trends that point to the Under for the Blazers, although the Over is 5-2 in the past 7 games overall while going 4-1 in the past 5 games on a single day of rest.
