Let’s break down the top picks for tonight’s NBA action using our exclusive system of 👍 Props (bets we like), 🔒 Locks (our favorite bets), 💧 Drops (leans we don’t love but don’t hate).
Boston Celtics Moneyline 🔒
The Celtics have been dominant this season, and despite some inconsistency against the spread, their ability to close out games makes them a strong moneyline pick. Even on the road against a scrappy Sixers team, Boston’s depth and defensive versatility give them the edge.
Jaylen Brown Over 25 Points + Assists 👍
With the Sixers focusing defensive pressure on Jayson Tatum, Brown has stepped up offensively. His ability to score at all three levels, combined with an uptick in playmaking, makes this an attractive play.
Kristaps Porzingis Over 18 Points 🔒
Porzingis has thrived against teams that lack rim protection, and Philadelphia’s current roster is vulnerable inside. Expect him to be a focal point early in the offense, exploiting mismatches down low.
Philadelphia 76ers +11 💧
Even with injuries, the Sixers have consistently found ways to stay competitive. Boston has struggled to cover large spreads, and Philadelphia’s recent offensive uptick makes this number too generous to ignore.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 30 Points 👍
The Grizzlies allow one of the highest free-throw rates in the league, a major advantage for Giannis. Given his ability to dominate in the paint and get to the line, he’s primed for another big scoring night.
Desmond Bane Over 20 Points 💧
With Ja Morant out, Bane has stepped into a high-usage role for Memphis. He’s taken on more offensive responsibility, and his perimeter shooting gives him a strong chance to hit this number.
📊 Final Thoughts/Trend Analysis
Sunday night’s slate provided some strong betting opportunities in both marquee matchups. The 76ers continue to be undervalued in the market, making their alternate spread and team prop plays appealing. Meanwhile, the Bucks-Grizzlies game featured two elite scorers in Giannis and Bane, both well-positioned for high-volume performances.
