Well, the undefeated streak ended with a thud on Friday, as I whiffed on both bets. However, the Denver Nuggets got me back in the winning column Saturday afternoon, so I’m 5-2 for the month. Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Sunday, April 5th.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Sunday, April 5th
Los Angeles Lakers vs Dallas Mavericks
Start Time – 7:30 PM EST
Now I feel kinda bad continuing to pick on the now undermanned Los Angeles Lakers. However, missing Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves for the rest of the season at least gives them an excuse when they get bounced in the first round of the playoffs.
And I’m still going to fade the Lakers, so I guess I don’t feel that bad for them. My line for this game is Dallas -0.5, so getting the Mavericks as a home dog is fine by me.
Best Bet: Dallas +3.5 (-108)
LA Clippers vs Sacramento Kings
Start Time – 9:00 PM EST
Hey, Sacramento Kings – you’re supposed to be tanking, what are you doing winning back-to-back games?!! The Kings screw everything up, even tanking.
Let’s hope the Kings don’t screw up my bet tomorrow, however. The LA Clippers are mediocre at best, so they can beat Sacramento tomorrow, but let’s keep it close, ok guys? My line is LA -6.5, so the Kings plus the points is my play.
Best Bet: Sacramento +11.5 (-105)
2025/6 Overall Record: 173-135 (56%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $2,057.45
Return on Investment: 7%
