The NBA rolls on with seven games on the slate tomorrow. Let’s find a couple of winners, shall we? Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Tuesday, January 14th.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Tuesday, January 14th
New Orleans Pelicans vs Chicago Bulls
Start Time – 8:00 PM EST
The New Orleans Pelicans – who I’ve been making bank on fading this season – are playing a bit better now that they’re getting closer to a healthy roster. But they’ll still be missing Herb Jones (probably for the rest of the season) and Brandon Ingram tomorrow. And they are 3-16 on the road.
The spread for this game is giving New Orleans too much respect (something I’ve never been accused of). Chicago should be favored by nine points in this spot.
Best Bet: Chicago -2.5 (-110)
Brooklyn Nets vs Portland Trail Blazers
Start Time – 10:00 PM EST
Yikes – here’s a stinky matchup – two teams who don’t want to win this season, yet one of them is going to be forced to tomorrow night. While it may be the hometown Portland Trail Blazers, I don’t think they’ll cover a spread this wide.
Both teams have a plethora of players listed as questionable for Tuesday night, so I’m just going to consider that a wash. Based on my math, Portland should only be favored by two points here.
Best Bet: Brooklyn +6.5 (-120)
Overall Record: 75-55 (58%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1338.21
Return on Investment: 10%
