Free NBA Picks For Saturday October 23, 2021

Mavericks vs. Raptors, 7:30PM (EDT)

BET: Mavericks -3.5 (Best odds -110)

📈 52% probability

With an opening game loss to the Hawks in which they scored only 87 points, some NBA fans may be already sounding the alarm bells about this year's Dallas team. They do have a chance, however, to bounce back as their road trip leads them to Toronto, who will be on the second night of a back-to-back weekend set. The Raps were good last night in their win against the Celtics, but they're by no means a finished product - still lacking Pascal Siakam who is out with injury. We're going to let that opening game for Dallas slide and have them covering the small spread in Canada.

Pistons vs. Bulls , 8:00PM (ET)

BET: Bulls -8.5 (Best odds -114)

📈 2.3% edge on the sportsbooks' odds

We get a second early look at the Pistons and Bulls who were locked in action just two nights ago. In that game, the Pistons were able to hang around for long enough but ultimately gave up the game to a Bulls team who are now 2-0 and are delivering on their preseason potential. This Detroit team lacks little excitement without their No. 1 pick Cade Cunningham in the lineup and we're expecting another rough game tonight.

Bucks vs. Spurs, 8:30PM (ET)

BET: Total points OVER 222.5 (Best odds -110)

📈 55% probability

The Bucks have been a little off on defense to open the season, giving up 240 points combined against the Heat and Nets. While the Spurs have been immense on D in their own right, they may have to engage themselves in a shootout against the likes of Giannis and Middleton to stay in this one.
