Los Angeles Lakers vs Memphis Grizzlies Picks and Predictions January 2nd 2026
Los Angeles returns home trying to stop a slide during a rare back-to-back set against Memphis.

Memphis arrives off a tough overtime loss but showed signs of offensive life with Ja Morant ramping up minutes. The Grizzlies are easing key players back into form and continue to evaluate young contributors. This first meeting sets the tone for the mini-series, with both teams needing defensive improvement.

Golden State Warriors vs Oklahoma City Thunder Picks and Predictions January 2nd 2026
Golden State returns to Chase Center riding its best stretch of home basketball this season. The Warriors have won three straight at home and five of six overall, and the schedule finally flips in their favor with 10 of the next 11 in San Francisco. Steve Kerr’s group has topped 120 points in five straight games and looks far more comfortable with its rotations. Oklahoma City arrives on a three-game winning streak of its own, but this marks a true road test. The Thunder have not won away from home since early December and have dropped their last two road games at San Antonio and Minnesota. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander continues to set the tone, while Jalen Williams brings added motivation in

Milwaukee Bucks vs Charlotte Hornets Picks and Predictions January 2nd 2026
Charlotte heads to Milwaukee with Kon Knueppel back in the lineup and trending up. The rookie shined earlier this season in his hometown, and his return adds another scoring creator alongside LaMelo Ball and Brandon Miller. Knueppel followed his ankle return with 20 points and eight assists against Golden State, showing no hesitation attacking off the catch or creating late. Milwaukee looks to rebound after a frustrating one-point loss on New Year’s Eve. The Bucks let Washington hang around and paid for it late, an outcome Doc Rivers called unacceptable. Giannis Antetokounmpo is no longer restricted, and Milwaukee’s rotation is otherwise stable. The Bucks have dominated this matchup recently and can clinch the season series with a win. For broader

Chicago Bulls vs Orlando Magic Picks and Predictions January 2nd 2026
Orlando closes a three-game road trip in Chicago after a gritty comeback win at Indiana. Paolo Banchero delivered late and continues to shoulder the offense with Franz Wagner sidelined. The Magic have shown better composure late after a recent collapse in Toronto, and Jalen Suggs’ return adds defensive pressure and tempo control. Chicago remains short-handed but found a way Wednesday. The Bulls snapped a skid by spreading the scoring load against New Orleans, placing eight players in double figures. With multiple starters out again, Chicago leans on depth, ball movement, and effort to stay competitive at home. For broader slate context, visit the NBA previews hub. Orlando opened -4.5 and has moved to -6 as Chicago’s injury list solidified. The
