It’s never too soon to make sure you’ve got your NBA parlay down pat. And with a relatively full slate of games being played on Wednesday, you’ve come to the right place in deciding how to pick games, who to select, and how much to bet.
Continue reading to find out who the three teams worthy of going all-in on are.
Toronto Raptors at Washington Wizards Picks
Raptors vs. Wizards Betting Report
The Toronto Raptors have been playing great basketball of late, and it seems that they have finally hit their stride. Even with OG Anunoby out of the lineup, they have begun to play extremely impressive ball.
Aron Baynes is finally proving himself worthy of large sums of minutes at the center spot, taking some pressure off Chris Boucher.
Kyle Lowry and Fred VanVleet have been very good so far, each of them drilling three after three to lift the team to big wins. They had their way with Orlando last week before beating the “short-handed” Nets on Friday night.
They have to be taken seriously, and the hapless Wizards will not be pulling another upset here.
Raptors by 10-plus points.
LA Clippers at Minnesota Timberwolves Picks
Clippers vs. Timberwolves Betting Report
The Timberwolves acquired D’Angelo Russell to be Karl-Anthony Towns’ sidekick. The two have long been best friends, so pairing them up was likely to keep Towns in Minnesota.
But, if Towns is always injured and can’t play, then well, it just won’t work out. The team is going to have a hard time going against the Clippers again on Tuesday.
Los Angeles is playing great basketball this year, even with Paul George sidelined for their past couple of games. They are filled with shooters, leading the league in threes.
They have nine players that are shooting at least 40% from three-point range as of last week. You cannot make stats like that up, as their guys just continue to serve as flamethrowers and not knowing how to miss.
Ivica Zubac has been good as the backup 5, giving them rim protection and rebounding on the second unit. When he’s not in, they have Serge Ibaka burying threes and blocking shots.
The Clippers will dominate this one, with or without George.
NBA Picks By Expert Handicappers
Cleveland Cavaliers at Denver Nuggets Picks
Cavaliers vs. Nuggets Betting Report
As impressive as the Cavaliers have looked at times this year, this is going to be a struggle for them. Larry Nance Jr. is set to miss four to six weeks, while Kevin Love is unlikely to play in this one.
So, the Cavaliers power forward position will be a weakness. JaMychal Green and Michael Porter Jr. have had some strong performances when defended by smaller guys.
Jamal Murray has been nursing an injury, and his return for this game would not make too much of a difference. Denver’s backup guards have been at least adequate in replacing him, showing that they can still be competitive.
Nikola Jokic dropped 50 on the Kings on Saturday night. What’s he going to do to Andre Drummond?
Denver is off to a bit of a tough start this year but will bounce back. This is a game you have to bet them in.
