I needed that. A clean sweep on my bets on Thursday night makes me feel a bit better heading into the weekend’s action. Here are your NBA Playoffs predictions and preview for Saturday, April 25th.
NBA Playoffs Predictions & Preview For Saturday, April 25th
Oklahoma City Thunder vs Phoenix Suns
Start Time – 3:30 PM EST
The defending NBA Champion Oklahoma City Thunder handled their business at home against the Phoenix Suns, winning both games. However, it was costly, as secondary star Jalen Williams is injured once more.
Additionally, the Suns hope to welcome back Grayson Allen and Jordan Goodwin tomorrow as the series shifts to their home floor. My line for Game 4 is Oklahoma City -5, so I like the Suns to cover the spread again, as they did in Game 2.
Best Bet: Phoenix +9.5 (-110)
Denver Nuggets vs Minnesota Timberwolves
Start Time – 8:30 PM EST
Now we’re seeing why the Denver Nuggets tried to avoid facing the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the playoffs. The Wolves blew the doors off the Nuggets in Game 3, and now look to take a stranglehold of the series tomorrow on their home floor.
I wouldn’t expect to see Peyton Watson or Aaron Gordon for the visitors on Saturday, which is a huge blow. My line is Minnesota -2, so I’m taking the Timberwolves as home dogs on the spread.
Best Bet: Minnesota +1.5 (-103)
2025/6 Overall Record: 186-155 (55%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1,253.08
Return on Investment: 4%
