Pelicans vs. Knicks Predictions
—
Best Bet
The Knicks should have the class advantage over the Pelicans, so we’re backing them to cover the –8.5 spread.
They are riding a winning streak, including wins over the Pacers, Warriors, and Wizards. They haven’t faced the best teams in the NBA, but the Pelicans aren’t in the top echelon either, so it should be a comfortable win for the Knicks.
Playing at home helps the Knicks, who won 16 of their 17 games against Western Conference teams with a losing record.

Same Game Multi
We expect big games from Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns. Brunson scored 23 points in his most recent game, and there should be plenty of points scored in this contest.
Towns comes off consecutive 26-point games, so the 21.5-point line is lower than expected. He can dominate inside and outside of the paint, so he should have a big scoring night.
Over 231.5 points goes into our NBA same game multis. They combined for 255 points in their December meeting.

Magic vs. Cavaliers Predictions
—
Best Bet
The Magic are going through a tough period at the wrong time of the year, but they haven’t been far off posting a recent win. A close loss to the Lakers hurt, but getting +9.5 points is more than expected against the Cavaliers.
Cleveland’s recent form has improved, but it hasn’t been facing good teams. The Cavs could struggle with the physicality of the Magic, and we’re banking on Orlando getting back to their best on Wednesday afternoon.
Injuries have played their part, but with Paolo Banchero playing, anything is possible for the visitors.

Same Game Multi
It pays to bet on Banchero when he’s hot, and after scoring 39 points against the Pacers, he’s seeing the ball go through the hoop. He needs to have a big scoring night to keep the Magic close, so take the over 23.5-point line.
Donovan Mitchell returned from a brief rest period with 27 points against the Pelicans. However, he could be limited by Orlando’s defence, so include him to score under 27.5 points.
Our NBA same game multi bet includes under 229.5 points based on how we think the game will transpire. Defence should come to the table, and the line is better than expected.
—
Nuggets vs. Suns Predictions
—
Best Bet
The Nuggets bounced back from a loss to Memphis with back-to-back wins over Toronto and Portland, and they could make it three on the bounce.
We don’t rate the Suns this season, and with only one win from their last five games, they’re not playing well. Devin Booker is being asked to do too much, and he’s not equipped to lead a team to success, hence their lack of it recently.
The Nuggets have one of the best NBA rosters, and they should win and cover the –5.5 spread.

Same Game Multi
Punters get value odds for Nikola Jokic to score over 28.5 points. Our only worry is that he’ll be resting in the fourth quarter if the Nuggets are well ahead, but he’s due a big scoring performance, and it could come on Wednesday.
Jamal Murray can get hot at any given moment, and his last two games are a good example. He scored 31 against Toronto before dropping 22 against the Blazers. If early buckets drop, he can put up 30+ points.
We’re including over 234.5 points for that season. The Nuggets can score big totals, and they combined for 242 points in their latest meeting.
