NBA TIPS — FRIDAY
All odds provided by Betfocus
Cleveland @ Washington
Play: Cavs -11.5 — $1.60
Cleveland has momentum and the matchup edge. While Alex Sarr has been a bright spot, this is his toughest test yet — Evan Mobley’s length and defensive presence should slow him down and disrupt Washington’s scoring flow. Cavs should control this one comfortably.
Charlotte @ Miami
Play: Miami -5.5 — $1.90
Miami returns home where they’ve been far better, and Charlotte remains undermanned and reliant on rookies. Even without Bam, Miami’s spacing, ball movement and shot-making should expose the Hornets’ inconsistent defense.
Player Play: Kel’el Ware Over 13.5 Points — $1.90
With Bam out, Ware sees more minutes and touches. Against a rookie frontcourt defense, his efficiency around the rim puts him in a strong position to clear this number.
Dallas @ Memphis
Play: Jaren Jackson Jr. Over 18.5 Points — $1.90
Memphis is making a point to get Jaren more touches, and he should see volume here. Dallas has struggled against scoring bigs, and Jackson’s face-up + post usage projects well for 20+ tonight.
Oklahoma City @ Sacramento
Play: Over 233.5 Total Points — $1.90
Both teams play fast, attack early in the shot clock, and lean into guard-led offense. Expect pace, transition points, and plenty of threes — strong setup for a high-scoring game.
