The NBA is bringing it on Wednesday, with 22 of the league’s 30 teams in action. That should make it easy to find a couple of winning plays, right?! Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Wednesday, January 15th.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Wednesday, January 15th
Dallas Mavericks vs New Orleans Pelicans
Start Time – 8:00 PM EST
Another day, another chance to fade the New Orleans Pelicans, although it didn’t pay off for me on Tuesday. But this means that the Pelicans are playing a back-to-back tomorrow night (ya, the Dallas Mavericks are also, I know).
And New Orleans is a blazing hot 5-16 at home, blech. Even without Luka Doncic, Dallas can cover this spread for us. I have them favored by 10.5 points.
Best Bet: Dallas -1 (+100)
Orlando Magic vs Milwaukee Bucks
Start Time – 8:00 PM EST
Another team playing a back-to-back tomorrow night is the Milwaukee Bucks, who beat the Sacramento Kings at home on Tuesday. Milwaukee was without Gary Trent Jr and Khris Middleton for this game – it’s unknown at this time if they’ll be playing on Wednesday against the Orlando Magic.
I like the Magic on the spread in this spot even if Trent and Middleton suit up. The Magic are a strong team and now have Paolo Banchero back in action. Orlando -0.5 is how I would line up this game.
Best Bet: Orlando +6.5 (-110)
Overall Record: 75-57 (57%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1138.21
Return on Investment: 9%
