NBA Predictions & Preview For Thursday, February 6th

It’ll be far easier doing these daily NBA best bet picks once the trade deadline is over and we get some roster stability. But I still found us a couple of winners for tomorrow. Here is your NBA prediction and preview for Thursday, February 6th.

NBA Predictions & Preview For Thursday, February 6th

Houston Rockets vs Minnesota Timberwolves

Start Time – 8:00 PM EST

Now this is an interesting line. The Minnesota Timberwolves are playing on Wednesday night, so it’ll be a back-to-back for them tomorrow. And they dropped two straight heading into Wednesday night, are only 12-12 at home, and Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo will be on the sidelines.

Plus, the Houston Rockets are one of the NBA’s best road teams. The Rockets will be missing some key players tomorrow night as well, but I still have this game lined up as Houston -2.

Best Bet: Houston +1.5 (-115)

Golden State Warriors vs Los Angeles Lakers

Start Time – 10:00 PM EST

One of the teams whose roster could look quite different after tomorrow’s trade deadline is the Golden State Warriors. Reportedly Kevin Durant isn’t interested in a reunion, but the Warriors seem to be in the running for quite a few other players.

The Los Angeles Lakers already made their big splash, but Luka Doncic still isn’t healthy enough to suit up. So I’m confused as to why the Lakers are such a big favorite tomorrow night. My handicapping has this game as Los Angeles -3, so the Warriors on the spread is the play.

Best Bet: Golden State +6.5 (-110)

Overall Record: 98-74 (57%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1,534.47
Return on Investment: 9%
