Here is what the data is telling us for tonight's NBA games ⏬

---

Cavaliers @ Spurs

BET: 🔥 Total point OVER 214.5 with FanDuel Sportsbook (-110)

📈 53.3% probability

After a run of six consecutive games that went under, the Cavs were finally able to put up a score above 100 points in their loss to the Heat on Saturday.  We like that trend to further develop tonight against a Spurs team that are bleeding points badly. They've conceded an average of 123 points per game over their last five. The 214.5 line almost seems tiny.

Pistons @ Thunder

BET: 🔥 Pistons at the moneyline with PointsBet (-143)

📈 61.1% probability

The OKC front office look like they've finally got what they wanted - an uncompetitive basketball team. After starting the season playing better than many had expected, the trade deadline has brought about a new generation of players who are in development-mode. They don't want to win this game. Detroit at the moneyline.

But more than just that, when PointsBet is offering free bets like they are in the offer below, why wouldn't you take advantage!?

Knicks @ Nets

BET: 🔥 New York Knicks to cover the spread with BetMGM (-110)

📈 52.7% probability

No James Harden, still no Kevin Durant, on the back of a bad loss to Chicago last night... the Nets are vulnerable. 

New York need to continue to push it to give themselves home court advantage in round 1 of the playoffs. Our projections has a Knicks cover likely here.
