NBA Picks December 15, 2023
Indiana Pacers vs. Washington Wizards
Tipoff: 7:00 pm EST
Spread: Pacers -8.5
Total: 259
Another night and we have another Indiana Pacers game on the schedule. You already know where I am going with this game. The Indiana Pacers are the best team to the Over 18-5 (78.3%) and a perfect 9-0 on the road to the Over.
The Pacers’ offense will take on one of the worst defenses in the league in the Washington Wizards tonight. Thus far this season, the Wizards are the worst defensive-rated team (121.9).
Furthermore, the Wizards allow the most opponent field goals made per game, allow the worst field goal percentage to the opposing team, the most rebounds per game, the most assists per game, and are allowing 127 points per game.
In addition, over the last five games, the Wizards are allowing 134.6 points per game. Over the last six games, they have allowed 139, 130, 131, 124, 146, and 142. Meanwhile, the Pacers are the best offensive efficient in the association and play at the fastest pace.
Wizards are second as far as pace over the last five games as well. These two teams matched up in the first game of the season, and the Pacers scored 143 points in that game.
Best Bet: Pacers TT Over 134.5
New York Knicks vs. Phoenix Suns
Tipoff – 10:00 pm EST
Spread: Suns -5.5
Total: 232.5
The debut of the “Big 3” didn’t pan out in the first game on Wednesday night against the Brooklyn Nets. They will try again on Friday night as they host the New York Knicks.
The Knicks have been a great team against the spread on the road. Despite only being 7-6 (53.8%) on the road, the Knicks, since the 2020 season, are 59.4% ATS.
Furthermore, the Suns at home this season have not fared well on the season. In fact, the Suns are 5-8 ATS (38.5%) and 4-6 ATS as home favorites.
I believe the Suns will have some growing pains now that they have Beal, Booker, and Durant healthy and playing together. I like the Knicks in this spot tonight to bounce back after taking a loss to the Jazz on Wednesday night.
Best Bet: Knicks +5.5
YTD Record: 22-17 (56.4%)
