San Antonio Spurs -4 over Detroit Pistons (-110)
Whenever you have a chance to bet on a game between the 2 worst teams in the entire association, you just to do it. And it would actually be wise to do so tonight, because there is good value on San Antonio. The Spurs have had 2 full days off, whereas the Pistons a re playing the second game in a back-to-back scenario after getting blown out by Sacramento 131-110 on Tuesday. Detroit has dropped 5 in a row – 3 in humiliating fashion – since ending its 27-game losing streak with a win over Toronto on December 30. Victor Wembanyama has scored at least 20 points in 5 consecutive games for the first time in his career. With the #1 overall pick in great form for San Antonio, another lopsided loss is probably coming Detroit's way.'
Philadelphia 76ers ML over Atlanta Hawks (+120)'
I appreciate that Joel Embiid is out for this game, but you would have to remove more than just the reigning NBA MVP from the 76ers' roster for me to bypass them as underdogs against a team as bad as the Hawks. Atlanta is 14-21, has lost 2 in a row and 6 of its last 8 and is 4 games under .500 even at home. Philadelphia is 10-6 on the road. It has lost 2 straight (both at home), but that just means this team will be playing inspired basketball tonight – plus it has enjoyed 3 days off to recharge the batteries. Tyrese Maxey is averaging 25.9 points, 6.6 assists and 3.6 rebounds per game, so he and Tobias Harris – among others – are enough to make up for Embiid's absence. Look for the Hawks' woes to continue.''
