Jusuf Nurkic cleared his rebounding total and also earned a double-double for those who were bold enough to place the bet. The Detroit Pistons were up by double-digits, and it was advised to cash out while they were. They could not uphold the teased-up spread, but did cover the original line of -4. 

The Portland Trail Blazers controlled the first half, but the Lakers began to put it on them in the fourth quarter. The last few minutes were played much better by the Los Angeles Lakers, who easily won the match. Tonight, there are six matches in the Association, with two nationally televised matches on NBC/Peacock. There is an NBA best bet on each televised game today.

 

 

 

NBA Picks, Predictions & Best Bets Today, 11/4

Orlando Magic vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction: Tuesday 11/4

Game Time: 8:00 PM ET | TV: NBC/Peacock | Location: State Farm Arena | Odds: ORL -3.5 | O/U 229.5

The Orlando Magic travel to State Farm Arena to play the Atlanta Hawks. Trae Young was the headline name mentioned on the Fantasy Alarm NBA Injury Report & Waiver Wire. The Hawks lost their leader with that injury, Atlanta is 0-2 at home, and are favored to lose once again. The Magic are averaging more points and allowing fewer to their opponents than the Hawks.

Orlando has won their previous two games and will be able to contain Atlanta’s offense without Young. The Magic are not a great scoring team, but they allow the second fewest made threes per game (11.0). That is a credit to their great perimeter defense, and Atlanta is adapting to the rhythm of a new point guard. Put a unit for the Magic to cover the spread in this Southeast Division rivalry.

Oklahoma City Thunder vs Los Angeles Clippers Prediction Tuesday 11/4

Game Time: 11:00 PM ET | TV: NBC/Peacock | Location: Intuit Dome | Odds: OKC -7.5| O/U: 223.5

The Los Angeles Clippers were involved in the latest game yesterday, and host the defending Champions today. Their game was tied with 3:37 remaining in the fourth quarter, too. The Oklahoma City Thunder are undefeated, are holding teams to the lowest field goal percentage in the Association (42.7%), and are well rested. This game is a volleyball set for the defending champions to spike.

The spread is currently at -7.5, and it’s a double unit hammer. The Clippers have the oldest roster in the NBA, and will be playing two games within 26 hours. Expect several backups to play significant minutes, and for Shai-Gilgeous Alexander to roast his former team. Even if Chet Holmgren does not play, the Thunder have the defense and the depth to cover a low spread. Put two units on this NBA best bet today.

 

 

 

NBA King of the Court & Prop Bet Today, 11/4

Vucevic is playing the stretch five with the Chicago Bulls, just as he did last season. However, Josh Giddey is a 6’ 7” point guard who rebounds well, which allows Vucevic to play on the perimeter. But he is also a pass-first point guard. He is averaging 9.2 rebounds and 8.7 assists per game, and Vucevic has benefited. He’s attempted 26 threes and made 14. Look for the most mentioned best bet of last season to earn us money today.

Fantasy Alarm NBA Best Bets has correctly predicted the King of the Court for the first two weeks of the season. This is the beginning of the third week, and the goal is to remain perfect in this category. Last week’s winners, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Tyrese Maxey, won it last week, and they are playing this week. But we look elsewhere for the King of the Court.

It’s a long shot, but LaMelo Ball of the Charlotte Hornets is the pick this week. There is a chance that LaMelo Ball does not play; he missed the Hornets' previous game against the Utah Jazz. However, if he plays, he has a great opportunity at stuffing the stat sheet. The Pelicans have the worst point differential in the NBA. Ball is averaging 23.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 9.8 assists per game. He has scored as many as 38, and should have an impressive night tonight. Put a unit on Ball to cover 40+ Points + Rebounds + Assists against the worst team in the Association, and win the King of the Court.
