We have NBA picks and predictions for Monday, November 3rd, which features the Bulls vs. Knicks, Spurs vs. Suns, and Heat vs. Lakers.
Our picks include a best bet and NBA same game multi, and we’re looking forward to the NBA action this week.
Bulls vs. Knicks Predictions
—
Best Bet
Getting a +7.5 line a Bulls team coming off a 135-125 win over the Knicks is value, and they could double down against their Eastern Conference rivals.
They are unbeaten after five games, which is much better than expected for the Bulls, who are led by Josh Giddey. The Australian is living up to his big contract, and he has sparked the Bulls back into life this season.
Take the +7.5 line, which is overly generous.
—
Same Game Multi
We’re going with two Bulls players who could have big games. Giddey has been electric this season, scoring 32 points against the Knicks last week. He’s ready for another big game, and the 18.5-point line is generous.
Nikola Vucevic scored 26 points in the first game against the Knicks, and we’re liking him to play well again. He’s an underrated big, and he could give the Knicks fits in the paint.
Over 235.5 points is included in NBA multis. The combined for 260 points, so punters should expect a high scoring affair.

Spurs vs. Suns Predictions
—
Best Bet
We love what the Spurs are doing at 5-0, and we can’t see them losing to the Suns, despite playing on the road.
Victor Wembanyama is making a play for the MVP title after dominating every game, and he’s only scratching the surface of his ability. He comes off a 27-point performance against the Heat, which was enough to get his team the win.
The Suns lost four on the bounce before beating the Jazz, which isn’t much of a form reversal. We expect them to struggle with the size and depth of the streaking Spurs.
—
Same Game Multi
We are riding the Wembanyama train until he shows otherwise. He is playing better than anyone else in the NBA, and with the Suns defence being only average, he could dominate both inside and outside of the paint.
Conversely, we expect Devin Booker to struggle. He knows how important this game is, and he often goes missing in the big games. Bookmakers have a 29.5-point line for Booker, but we have him scoring around 24 points.
Over 227.5 is worth including based on the Spurs offence, which could score around 120 points.
—
Heat vs. Lakers Predictions
—
Best Bet
The Lakers are going about their business with four wins from their last five games, including wins over the Wolves and Grizzlies on the road.
Those were tough games, and they came through them in style, and they’re being led by MVP candidate Luka Doncic. He has scoring totals of 43, 49, and 44 points over his last three games, so he’s firing on all cylinders.
He should be enough to get the Lakers past the Heat, who have often struggled against high-scoring teams like the Lakers. Covering a –4.5 line shouldn’t be too hard for the home team, that is thriving without LeBron James in the lineup.

Same Game Multi
As the numbers suggest, Doncic will have another big scoring night. He can’t be stopped right now, and he’s thriving in an offence he can lead. Over 32.5 points is worth including in NBA Monday picks.
We also like Deandre Ayton over 9.5 rebounds at $2.05. He should mop up the boards throughout the game, and we can’t see Miami scoring too many points. There will be a lot of misses, and Ayton could have a big rebounding performance.
Under 232.5 points adds to the multi bet value. The Heat could score under 100 points, so back the under.
