NBA Tips for Wednesday, March 4th 2026

We have NBA picks and predictions for Wednesday, March 4th, which features the Pistons vs. Cavaliers, Knicks vs. Raptors, and Spurs vs. 76ers.

Our picks include a best bet and NBA same game multi, and we’re looking forward to the NBA action this week.

Pistons vs. Cavaliers Predictions

—

Best Bet

The Pistons have posted three consecutive wins, including a 122-119 overtime win over the Cavaliers last week. It was a tough effort, and although they’re on the road for this game, the result could be similar.

They have a team good enough to compete for an NBA Championship. After beating the Magic with ease, they continue to lead the Eastern Conference, and a statement win over the Cavaliers would set them up nicely.

As the NBA odds suggest, it should be close, but we give the edge to the Pistons.

Same Game Multi

It’s worth following Cade Cunningham in the run to the playoffs. He has been money for punters, and he should have over 25.5 points against the Cavaliers, having dropped 25 points against them last week.

We also like Duncan Robinson to have a good game for the Pistons. If he gets hot from the three-point line, his total points can skyrocket. He only needs to make a few to have over 11.5 points, so include him in NBA same game multi picks.

Overtime helped, but they combined for 241 last week, so we’re included the over in our NBA picks.

Knicks vs. Raptors Predictions

—

Best Bet

We were impressed by the Knicks’ win over the Spurs on Monday, and that should give them enough confidence to beat teams like the Raptors.

Jalen Brunson scored 24 points, and if he has a good shooting night, the Knicks typically win. He’s the glue keeping this team together, but they have a number of players who can get hot, including Mikal Bridges and OG Anunoby.

Despite the Raptors winning three of their last five games, we’re including the Knicks in our NBA picks today. They have more upside, and they should start stringing wins together.

—

Same Game Multi

Brunson is starting to heat up after dropping totals of 27 and 24 points from his last two games. He knows how important he is to the Knicks organisation, so look for him to have another big scoring night.

Scottie Barnes could struggle to get open shots for the Raptors. The Knicks’ defence is one of the best in the NBA, and they shut down a much better team in the Spurs on Monday. Based on that, take Barnes under 16.5 points.

Under 224.5 points is included on the same basis. They had 211 points in their last meeting, and that was with the Knicks scoring 119.

—

Spurs vs. 76ers Predictions

—

Best Bet

The Spurs are the better team in this matchup, but they don’t enjoy playing physical teams, and that’s where the 76ers could excel.

The Spurs needed a 37-25 final quarter to get past the 76ers in their previous meeting, which came in San Antonio. That bodes well for the 76ers, who don’t have Joel Embiid, but they have Tyrese Maxey playing well.

He scored 33 points against the Celtics on Monday, and if his output is similar, they should keep it close against Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs.

—

Same Game Multi

Maxey has totals of 27, 39, 32, 28, and 33 points from his last five games. He’s on fire for the 76ers, so we’re including Maxey over 29.5 points in our NBA same game multi picks for Wednesday.

De’Aaron Fox could struggle to get off uncontended shots against the 76ers. He comes off a dour seven-point effort against the Knicks, and he could have similar struggles.

It should be a defence-minded game, so include under 233.5 points, which is a value line.
