Superstar matchups bookend Saturday's eight-game slate. Let's dive into the matchups with our NBA best bets for Saturday.
Saturday's modest eight-game slate pits two hot teams against each other when the Brooklyn Nets and Los Angeles Clippers, which is a game we'll target with today's picks. We'll also focus on two games with road favorites. Damian Lillard and Luka Doncic close out the night in a head-to-head matchup, and we can find value in a low-scoring Trail Blazers-Maverick showdown.
