Warriors vs. 76ers: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

Our best bet and prediction for Wednesday’s Warriors vs. 76ers game, with odds from Tipico Sportsbook.

Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors host Tyrese Maxey and the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over-under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet at Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 7 p.m. PT and can be seen on ESPN.

The Warriors (15-2) are one game clear of the Phoenix Suns atop the Western Conference standings, and are on a four-game winning streak. The Sixers (10-8) are still dealing with a wealth of health issues, and have lost six of their last eight games.

76ers at Warriors notable injuries:

76ers: Seth Curry (low back stiffness), Danny Green (left hamstring tightness) and Tobias Harris (left hip soreness) are questionable. Joel Embiid (health and safety protocols) and Ben Simmons (personal reasons) are out.

Warriors: Andre Iguodala (right knee soreness), Klay Thompson (injury recovery) and James Wiseman (injury recovery) are out.

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook

  • Point spread: Warriors -10.5
  • Money line: Warriors -800 / 76ers +520
  • Over-under: 215.5

Advice and prediction

The Warriors are deservedly huge favorites here, but with the status of Tobias Harris and Seth Curry uncertain, I’m slightly hesitant to lay 10.5 points on Golden State. Instead, I’m liking the under 215.5 here. The Warriors still have the best defense in the league, and the short-handed Sixers are playing the final game of a grueling road trip. I don’t think Philadelphia goes above 95 points on Wednesday.

Prediction: Warriors 109, Sixers 95

Bulls at Rockets: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

The Rockets have Kevin Porter Jr. back in the lineup, but they’re still sizable home underdogs (+8.5) versus Zach LaVine and the Bulls.

The Houston Rockets kick off a three-game homestand with Wednesday’s visit from the Chicago Bulls, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over-under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet at Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 7:00 p.m. Central and can be viewed or streamed via AT&T SportsNet Southwest and NBA League Pass.

The Rockets (1-16), who are looking to snap a 15-game losing streak, will have starting point guard Kevin Porter Jr. back in the lineup after missing the last three games with a left thigh contusion. But that may not be enough versus Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, and the resurgent Bulls (12-6), who enter Wednesday at No. 2 in the Eastern Conference.

Bulls at Rockets notable injuries:

The Bulls are listing Patrick Williams as out due to a left wrist ligament tear. Nikola Vucevic (return to competition reconditioning) and Alex Caruso (left wrist contusion) are questionable, while Javonte Green (left ankle sprain) is probable. Houston’s injury report is clean besides Porter, who is listed as questionable but said Tuesday that he will play.

Projected Lineups

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook

  • Point spread: Bulls -8.5
  • Money line: Bulls -450 / Rockets +330
  • Over-under: 214.5 points

Click here to place your bets at Tipico Sportsbook.

Advice and prediction

It’s hard to pick the Rockets to win straight up versus a superior opponent, but they should be rested and motivated at home, and they have Porter back at point guard. That’s enough to make it competitive. They may also have Stephen Silas coaching for his job, according to a new report.

Prediction: Bulls 109, Rockets 102

Hornets vs. Magic: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

Our best bet and prediction for Wednesday’s Hornets vs. Magic game, with odds from Tipico Sportsbook.

LaMelo Ball and the Charlotte Hornets visit the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over-under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet at Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 7 p.m. ET and can be seen on Bally Sports Southeast and Bally Sports Florida.

The short-handed Magic (4-14) have the worst record in the Eastern Conference, and are riding a three-game losing streak. The Hornets (11-8) are coming off a road win over the Wizards, and have won six of their last seven games.

Hornets at Magic notable injuries:

Hornets: PJ Washington (left elbow hyperextension) is out.

Magic: Cole Anthony (right ankle sprain), Michael Carter-Williams (left ankle injury recovery), Markelle Fultz (left knee injury recovery), Jonathan Isaac (left knee injury recovery) and E’Twaun Moore (left knee sprain) are out. Gary Harris (right hand sprain) is questionable.

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook

  • Point spread: Hornets -7.5
  • Money line: Hornets -340 / Magic +260
  • Over-under: 219.5

Click here to place your bets at Tipico Sportsbook.

Advice and prediction

Though the Magic are clearly the worst team here, they’ve managed to cover the spread in three of their last four games and can’t be written off entirely. They’ll struggle without guard Cole Anthony, though, and just lost a game to the Bucks by 31 points on Monday. The Hornets are rolling, and after a long stretch of games against contending teams, we could see Charlotte open up the lead here. Take the Hornets -7.5.

Prediction: Hornets 119, Magic 101

Lakers vs. Knicks: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

The betting information you need to know as the Los Angeles Lakers face the New York Knicks on the road.

The Los Angeles Lakers play the New York Knicks on Tuesday, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over-under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet at Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 7:30 p.m. ET and can be seen on TNT and Spectrum SportsNet.

Los Angeles (9-9) has momentum after a 17-point comeback win against the Detroit Pistons Sunday. Russell Westbrook and Anthony Davis combined for 56 points after dominating the fourth quarter in a stellar fashion to earn the win. LeBron James, however, is out because he was suspended one game for initiating a scuffle that turned bloody in the game.

New York (9-8) is also near .500 after recently losing to the Chicago Bulls. Julius Randle’s numbers have dipped, and Kemba Walker, Evan Fournier and RJ Barrett haven’t played to the standards the Knicks need.

The Knicks are also 4-5 at home compared to 5-3 on the road, so the Lakers, which has played six out of 18 games away, could steal a road win in Madison Square Garden if the intensity from the Pistons win carries over.

Lakers at Knicks notable injuries:

Lakers: OUT – LeBron James, Trevor Ariza, Kendrick Nunn; Probable – Anthony Davis; Doubtful – Austin Reaves

Knicks: OUT – Mitchell Robinson; Doubtful – Taj Gibson

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook

  • Point spread: Knicks -5.5
  • Money line: Knicks -220 / Lakers +175
  • Over-under: 213.5

Click here to place your bets at Tipico Sportsbook.

Advice and prediction

The potential trajectory of this game changed when James’ suspension was announced. Now, the Lakers are down a matchup advantage. This will come down to how Westbrook and Davis perform. Their chemistry in the fourth quarter against Detroit was impeccable, but they’ll need help from players like Carmelo Anthony, Malik Monk and company.

Though L.A. hasn’t proved it can win consistently without LeBron, this might be a closer game than the spread indicates. Take the Lakers plus-5.5, Knicks plus-220 and the over 213.5.

Prediction: Knicks 114, Lakers 110

Rockets at Celtics: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

Houston is a big underdog (+11.5), but there’s at least some optimism after Saturday’s strong showing by Jalen Green and the young Rockets.

In Monday’s game from Boston, All-Star guard Jaylen Brown (right hamstring strain) is likely to return for the Celtics after a multi-game absence, as is big man Robert Williams III (left knee tendinopathy). That’s a tough formula for the visiting Houston Rockets, who are currently on a 14-game losing streak and have yet to win on the road this season.

If you’re looking to make a wager, we have the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as all the information you need to make the smartest bet on Tipico Sportsbook.

Monday’s game, which concludes a four-game road trip for the young and reeling Rockets (1-15), tips off at 6:30 p.m. CT and can be viewed or streamed via AT&T SportsNet Southwest and NBA League Pass.

The good news for Houston is that they played much more competitively on Saturday in New York, and rookie Jalen Green had the best game of his career against the Celtics last month in Houston. That could offer hope for the Rockets to beat a large spread number, but actually walking out of TD Garden with a win feels like a very tall order.

Rockets at Celtics notable injuries:

Boston lists Brown and Williams as probable to play, as are Dennis Schroder (left ankle sprain) and Romeo Langford (left ankle sprain).

Kevin Porter Jr. has missed the last two games for the Rockets due to a left thigh contusion, and he has the same “questionable” designation heading into Monday. Otherwise, Houston’s injury report is clean. If Porter is again sidelined, veteran Eric Gordon would start in his place.

Projected Lineups

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook (place your bets here)

  • Point spread: Celtics -11.5
  • Money line: Rockets +570 / Celtics -900
  • Over-under: 214.5

Advice and prediction

Despite Saturday’s improved showing, Houston has fallen short of the spread number in six of its last seven games, and Boston has an All-Star returning to its backcourt. The Rockets are likely weary at the end of a long road trip and may not have their starting point guard available. On paper, this has all the makings of a lopsided game in favor of the home team.

Prediction: Celtics 111, Rockets 98

Thunder vs. Hawks: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

Our best bets and prediction for Monday’s Thunder vs. Hawks game, with odds from Tipico Sportsbook.

The Oklahoma City Thunder visit Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks on Monday night, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet on Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 6:30 p.m. CT and can be seen on Bally Sports Oklahoma and Bally Sports Southeast.

The Thunder are winless on their current road trip without coach Mark Daigneault, but they successfully covered the spread against both the Bucks and Celtics. In Boston, the Thunder trailed by 15 to start the fourth quarter, but outscored the Celtics by nine in the final frame. The Hawks, meanwhile, have reeled off four consecutive wins, and have covered the spread in each of those games.

Thunder vs. Hawks notable injuries:

Thunder: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (right ankle sprain) is questionable.

Hawks: Bogdan Bogdanovic (right quad contusion) is questionable. De’Andre Hunter (right wrist tendon surgery) and Onyeka Okongwu (right shoulder injury recovery) are out.

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook (place your bets here)

  • Point spread: Hawks -10.5
  • Money line: Hawks -750 / Thunder +500
  • Over-under: 213.5

Advice and prediction

The big question here is the status of Gilgeous-Alexander, who was held to 14 points in Boston. The Hawks are trending in the right direction, though, and have been an impressive 7-1 at home, blowing out the Bucks, Celtics and Jazz at State Farm Arena. The Hawks also have a bottom-four defensive rating, so for Atlanta to cover the spread, you’d have to back them to be scoring enough to likely hit the over as well. I’m taking Atlanta minus-10.5 and the over 213.5 here, which seems a low number.

Prediction: Hawks 117, Thunder 104

Raptors vs. Warriors: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

Our prediction and best bet for Sunday’s Raptors vs. Warriors game, with odds from Tipico Sportsbook.

After capping a four-game road swing, the Golden State Warriors will return to San Francisco to play the Toronto Raptors on Sunday, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet on Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 5:30 p.m. PT and can be seen on NBC Sports Bay Area.

After sitting four core players for the final game of the road trip on Friday, the Warriors will be getting back key contributors like Steph Curry and Draymond Green in time for a rematch of the 2019 NBA Finals.

Warriors at Pistons notable injuries:

Golden State:

  • Nemanja Bjelica – Probable – Left Rib Soreness
  • Gary Payton II – Probable – Hernia Injury Recovery
  • Otto Porter Jr. – Questionable – Left Foot Injury Management
  • Andre Iguodala – Out – Right Knee Soreness

Toronto

  • OG Anunoby – Questionable – Left Hip Pointer

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook (place your bets here)

  • Point spread: Warriors -8.5
  • Money line: Warriors -420 / Pistons +320
  • Over-under: 217.5

Advice and prediction

After a night off on Friday against the Pistons and an off day on Saturday, Steph Curry will likely be ready to continue his Most Valuable Player campaign on Sunday against the Raptors. Prior to his absence against the Pistons, Curry notched 37 and 40 points with nine triples in consecutive contests. With the help of Curry, Golden State’s offense should get clicking against a team that sits at No. 21 in defensive efficiency.

Curry’s return alone makes the Warriors -8.5 look like an easy choice on Sunday, but where Golden State could really stretch this game out is on defense.

The Warriors are quickly proving to be one of the league’s best defenses, holding teams under 100 points in three of their last five games. Led by Draymond Green, the Warriors defense could overwhelm Nick Nurse’s offensive attack led by rookie Scottie Barnes, Gary Trent Jr., Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam.

Lock up the Warriors at -8.5 to end the weekend.

Prediction: Warriors 118, Raptors 99

The game tips off at 8 p.m. ET and can be seen on NBCS Chicago.

The Bulls are coming off an impressive 114-108 victory on Friday night against the Denver Nuggets.

Knicks at Bulls notable injuries:

Chicago: Nikola Vucevic (health and safety protocol) and Patrick Williams (left wrist ligament tear) are out.

  • Point spread: Bulls -5.5
  • Money line: Bulls -230 / Knicks +180
  • Over/under: 210.5

Advice and prediction

The Knicks have had a tough time scoring the ball as Kemba Walker and Evan Fournier have struggled to start the season. Look for Chicago’s surprising defense to continue that slump for the Knicks as the Bulls cover the spread and hit the over.

Prediction: Bulls 112, Knicks 103

Lakers vs. Pistons: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

The betting information you need to know as the Los Angeles Lakers face the Detroit Pistons on the road.

The Los Angeles Lakers play the Detroit Pistons on Sunday, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over/under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet on Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 6 p.m. ET and can be seen on Spectrum SportsNet and Bally Sports Detroit/Indiana.

Los Angeles (8-9) is desperately seeking a win after losing three games in a row, most recently to the Boston Celtics by 22 points. LeBron James made his anticipated return to the lineup, but the core issues plaguing the team are still present.

Detroit (4-11) is one of the younger teams in the Eastern Conference so the year hasn’t started off so well. Cade Cunningham, the No. 1 pick in 2021, is still adjusting to life in the NBA. It hasn’t been a smooth start for him; he’s shooting just 27% from deep on over seven attempts. Jerami Grant, who broke out with the Pistons last year, is also having a rough go at it to start the season.

Lakers at Pistons notable injuries:

Lakers: OUT – Trevor Ariza, Kendrick Nunn, Austin Reaves; Questionable – LeBron James; Probable – Anthony Davis

Pistons: OUT – Kelly Olynyk; Questionable – Killian Hayes; Probable – Isaiah Stewart

The lines, courtesy of Tipico Sportsbook

  • Point spread: Lakers -7.5
  • Money line: Lakers -320 / Pistons +250
  • Over-under: 208.5

Advice and prediction

The Lakers, theoretically, should beat the Pistons by more than the spread. But the Lakers have been underwhelming against lower-level opponents, like the Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets. The Pistons are the worst in the league in points scored, field goal percentage and 3-point percentage. Los Angeles should win this, but it wouldn’t be at all surprising if Detroit keeps it close.

Take the Pistons plus-7.5, Lakers minus-320 and the under 208.5.

Prediction: Lakers 104, Pistons 98

  • Point spread: Hawks -6.5
  • Money line: Hawks -270 / Hornets +210
  • Over/under: 226.5

Advice and prediction

The Hornets extended their winning streak to five games on Friday and despite hitting the road to play the Hawks, look for Charlotte to keep the ball rolling in their favor. The Hornets cover the spread and hit the over.

Prediction: Hornets 117, Hawks 113
