I took it on the chin with my NBA Cup plays on Saturday, but the NBA Cup is stupid anyhow, and the Oklahoma City Thunder never lose (and always cover), so it’s not my fault. Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Sunday, December 14th.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Sunday, December 14th
Los Angeles Lakers vs Phoenix Suns
Start Time – 8:00 PM EST
I was worried there wouldn’t be enough playable spreads on Sunday, but then I saw the Los Angeles Lakers on the schedule, and I knew I’d be ok. That’s because I make money fading the Lakers.
Now it’s a bit up in the air tomorrow as both Dillon Brooks and Devin Booker are questionable to play for the Phoenix Suns, but I’ll still go with the home team. My line is Phoenix -3, so I’ll take the Suns as a dog.
Best Bet: Phoenix +3.5 (-115)
Golden State Warriors vs Portland Trail Blazers
Start Time – 9:00 PM EST
We’ll stay out West, as the struggling Golden State Warriors visit the struggling Portland Trail Blazers. After a surprisingly solid start to the year, the Blazers have sunk back down to their usual spot in the standings, while the Warriors have just been so-so.
I’m going with the home side in this one as well. My line is only Golden State -0.5, so the value is on the Blazers plus the points.
Best Bet: Portland +4.5 (-108)
2025/6 Overall Record: 56-48 (54%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $286.09
Return on Investment: 3%
