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

Bulls @ Hornets

BET: 🔥 Charlotte Hornets at the spread with Unibet (+100)

📈 52.7% probability

Zach LaVine is expected to return to the starting lineup for the Bulls after an 11-game layoff for COVID protocols, but even with the sharpshooter back in, our data still loves the Hornets to take care of business at the spread as they march toward the playoffs. LaMelo Ball and Scary Terry Rozier should be enough to keep Chicago at bay.

Yo, Virginia! Unibet is now live in VA. Why is that good? Because they're giving you the best welcome offer we've ever seen! For a limited time, you can claim a $100 free bet with Unibet - no deposit required! That's right; just open an account and get $100 of absolutely free money to bet with.

Lakers @ Clippers

BET: 🔥 Los Angeles Clippers at the spread with PointsBet (-110)

📈 50.4% probability

At the time of writing, this spread line looks TIGHT, with DimersBOT giving a slight edge to the favorites.

With LeBron out for the Lakers and AD still not quuuiiiite himself, PG and Kawhi might see this as a chance to really stick in the boot in as both teams head towards the playoffs.

Last night's slate saw 7/9 games finish with a final margin of 16 or more points, and we could very well see a similar result in this one.

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

Thunder @ Warriors

BET: 🔥 Oklahoma City Thunder at the spread with BetMGM (-109)

📈 55.3% probability

The Golden State Warriors have plenty to fight for in this one, but we're not too sure that they're 14 points better than the Thunder.

If even Steph doing Steph things, OKC will be confident of keeping this one close with the fight that they show night in, night out.

To best use this pick, you can't go wrong when signing up to BetMGM where new customers you can cash in even if your bet doesn't win!

Simply deposit $20 into your account, place your bet, and then wait for the money to come in, regardless of the result! It's free money.
