We have NBA picks and predictions for Wednesday, November 12th, which features the Grizzlies vs. Knicks, Warriors vs. Thunder, and Nuggets vs. Kings.
Our picks include a best bet and NBA same game multi, and we’re looking forward to the NBA action this week.
Grizzlies vs. Knicks Predictions
—
Best Bet
The Knicks are playing well enough to cover the spread against the Grizzlies, so we’re including them in our NBA picks.
The Grizzlies have only one win from their last five games, and there isn’t much cohesion with the team. Conversely, the Knicks have rattled off four consecutive wins, and they’re heading in the right direction in the Eastern Conference.
Led by Jalen Brunson, the Knicks should have too much for the Grizzlies.
—
Same Game Multi
The Knicks are led by Brunson, who we’re backing to have another big scoring performance. The 25.5-point line is fair considering his form, and we can’t see the Grizzlies putting up much defence to stop the point guard.
We also like Karl-Anthony Towns over 11.5 rebounds. He should clean up the boards, and Memphis should put up plenty of misses. We wouldn’t be surprised if he posted close to 16 or 17 rebounds on Wednesday.
Under 233.5 goes into the mix based on the Grizzlies’ lack of scoring prowess.

Warriors vs. Thunder Predictions
—
Best Bet
Punters get another quality game to bet on, and we’re going with the Thunder to show why they’re the defending champions.
They have made a good start to their title defence, and although the Warriors have the likes of Steph Curry and Draymond Green, the Thunder boast one of the deepest rosters in the NBA, and they also have the current MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
That makes them tough to bet against, and although it could be a close game until half time, we expect the class of the Thunder to pull away. Look for Chet Holmgren to have a good scoring performance, which could be enough to cover the spread.

Same Game Multi
We’re backing Holmgren to have a big game. The Thunder big is good inside and outside the paint, which makes him tough to defend. We expect Green to guard the paint, but the size of Holmgren should be too much for him.
Jimmy Butler could be ineffective for the Warriors. He hasn’t been at his brilliant best this season, and the 16.5-point line is a good assessment from bookmakers. We have him scoring around 13 points, so include him in NBA same game multis.
Over 227.5 points is a good inclusion. The Thunder could score close to 130 points, which will see the over cash.
—
Nuggets vs. Kings Predictions
—
Best Bet
There is a class difference between the Nuggets and Kings, hence the –8.5 line on the road. We have the Nuggets being far too good for the underperforming Kings, who have a good team on paper, but that doesn’t seem to matter.
Backing the Kings against Denver hasn’t been a fruitful bet in recent history. The Nuggets have won their last six meetings, and that NBA betting trend is likely to continue.
Take the –8.5 before it moves to double digits.
—
Same Game Multi
The Nuggets should put up a big score, so we’re backing over 242.5 points in our NBA SGM picks. The final score is projected to be 128-116, which is enough to get it done.
Jokic comes off a 32-point performance, and we’re surprised by his line. We thought he would be at –29.5, so we’re taking the value line with the Nuggets’ superstar.
Aaron Gordon is also a sneaky scorer. He is always a good bet to include in NBA multis.
