We have a full slate on Friday, with all 30 NBA teams in action on the penultimate day of the regular season (there are no games scheduled on Saturday, and then the season wraps up on Sunday). Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Friday, April 10th.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Friday, April 10th
Orlando Magic vs Chicago Bulls
Start Time – 8:00 PM EST
The last few days of every NBA season are a bit dicey to bet on, as some teams will be going for it, while others with nothing to play for will ease up. Then there are the tankers to worry about, such as the Chicago Bulls.
The Bulls held out all their key players on Thursday, so hopefully they’ll suit them up on Friday against the Orlando Magic. Regardless, the Magic aren’t exactly world beaters on the road anyhow. My line is Orlando -4, so I’ll take the Bulls as a big home dog.
Best Bet: Chicago +11.5 (-111)
Oklahoma City Thunder vs Denver Nuggets
Start Time – 9:00 PM EST
Which brings us to the league’s best team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, who definitely aren’t tankers. However, with the league’s top seed wrapped up, the fear is that they may act like a tanker to finish up the season.
However, their injury report isn’t currently loaded up with players, so it looks like all their healthy players will play in Denver. Which means SGA will at least play long enough to score 20 points. My line is Oklahoma City -3, so I’ll take the Thunder as a rare dog.
Best Bet: Oklahoma City +5.5 (-111)
2025/6 Overall Record: 177-140 (56%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1,927.16
Return on Investment: 6%
