To open a great long weekend of basketball we have the Orlando Magic hosting the New York Knicks in what will be one of the most competitive games of the day.
Some interesting numbers behind this game include the Magic have lost their last five games against teams that have a winning record.
Over the last 5 games, Julius Randle has been playing out of his shell, with an average of 25 points and 9 rebounds, which is unbelievable for the All-Star.
Not to mention his teammate Jalen Brunson is averaging 28, 4 and 6 in the last 5 games which shows that the playmaker and Randle will need to work together throughout the four quarters.
Nine of the last 11 away games for the Knicks have also gone over the total points as well, which at the time of writing is 226.5.
Here’s my suggested bet for this morning’s game.
Same Game Multi
- Knicks to win
- Over total points
- Jalen Brunson over points
- Julius Randle over points
After their four-game win streak got snapped yesterday, they’re back on the road to Crypto.com Arena to take on the informative and impressive LA Clippers.
Reports suggest they’ll be without their star player Kawhi Leonard however, I think Paul George and James Harden will be the real standouts of today’s game.
The last five games have shown the immaculate performance of the LA Clippers, James Harden and Paul George are averaging 23 and 24 points respectively.
The Clips have averaged 114 points against the Grizzlies since the 2019-20 season.
Here are my selections for this afternoon’s game
Same Game Multi
- Clippers to win
- Under Total Points
- James Harden over points
- Paul George over points
