Kicking off NBL Round 9 are the Hawks vs. Phoenix, where bookmakers have the Phoenix at short odds to win. They have a good recent record against the Hawks, and they’ll need to turn things around after losing their last two games.

Best Bet

Phoenix -7.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

The Phoenix have let us down more often than not this season, but we’re giving them another chance to show us something.

They have the players needed to post big wins over teams like the Hawks, including Nathan Sobey and Angus Glover, and they now need to start posting results. They look to bounce back after losses to the Kings and JackJumpers, but they are two of the best teams in the comp.

That followed back-to-back wins over the 36ers and Taipans, so if the Phoenix can reproduce something close to those efforts, they should have enough in the tank to beat the Hawks, who lost heavily to the Phoenix in their only meeting this season.

The Phoenix won that meeting 113-96, so it was a commanding performance, and we have the Phoenix winning by a similar margin and covering the -7.5 spread.

Phoenix -7.5, Nathan Sobey 20+ Points, Angus Glover 15+ Points, Total Points Over 199.5 @ $9.50

Our NBL SGM picks include Nathan Sobey 20+ points, and the $1.81 odds are good enough to include as a value bet. He comes off a 33-point showing in a loss to Sydney, so he could do something similar to the Hawks.

Punters also get value odds for Angus Glover 15+ points. He has had some solid recent showings, including games of 24 and 20 points, and if he can make an early three, he’s tough to slow down. Include him in picks to boost payouts.

They combined for 209 points in their latest meeting, and it should be another high-scoring affair.

Best Value Bet

Angus Glover 20+ Points @ $3.80

Bet Now

If the Phoenix wants to be a title threat this season, they need players like Glover to score well, and he’s capable.

He provides the Phoenix with a good secondary scoring option behind Sobey, and he often plays his best when Sobey has an off night.

That has been the case this season, so we’re backing him to score 20+ points, which pays a healthy $3.80.
