The NBA is offering up eight games for Halloween tomorrow night. Let’s find a couple to get our treats from. Oh ya – the NBA Cup also starts tomorrow. Do we care? Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Friday, October 31st.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Friday, October 31st
Boston Celtics vs Philadelphia 76ers
Start Tme – 7:00 PM EST
We’ll start things off with a battle between two Atlantic Division rivals, the 2-3 Boston Celtics and the 4-0 Philadelphia 76ers. Yes, the young Sixers have jumped out of the gate with a perfect 4-0 start, with a limited Joel Embiid and no Paul George.
But the unknown secret that’s going to win us money in this spot is that the Celtics are still a better team than the Sixers when you look under the hood at the advanced stats that help predict game spreads. My line for tomorrow is Boston -6.5, so the Celtics plus the points is the play.
Best Bet: Boston +3 (-114)
New Orleans Pelicans vs Los Angeles Clippers
Start Time – 10:30 PM EST
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Death, taxes, the New Orleans Pelicans sucking. The Pels are 0-4, even with Zion Williamson playing, and are the worst team in the Western Conference.
And they aren’t getting their first win tomorrow on the road in Los Angeles against the Clippers. My line is Los Angeles -17.5, so the Clips will cover.
Best Bet: Los Angeles -10.5 (-108)
2025/6 Overall Record: 11-7 (65%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $285.98
Return on Investment: 16%
