Phoenix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers
Wednesday, March 22, 2023 – 10:00 PM EDT at Crypto.com Arena
Anthony Davis (Los Angeles Lakers)
- Over 25.5 Points Scored
The Los Angeles Lakers have 10 games to improve their place in the standings and make the NBA playoffs. They need every game so tonight’s showdown against the Phoenix Suns will be meaningful. The Lakers are currently in 11th place in the Western Conference. Los Angeles has a 35-37 record this season.
The Phoenix Suns are 38-33 and in fourth place in the Western Conference. They will be looking to win in order to get home-court advantage in the first round of the NBA playoffs. We should see a good performance from both teams.
The Lakers are coming off a 111-105 win over the Orlando Magic. The Phoenix Suns have lost four of their past five games. The Lakers hope to continue the Suns’ struggles tonight.
The Pick
With Deandre Ayton out with an injury tonight for the Phoenix Suns, Anthony Davis has a great matchup in the middle.
Davis has played well while the team is missing its leader LeBron James. He is averaging 25.8 points per game this season and has gone over this total in five of his last eight games.
Davis will be looking to take advantage of the Suns while they’re missing their best interior defender. Take advantage of this line and make a winning wager.
NBA Prop Pick: Anthony Davis Over 25.5 points (-125) at Caesars Sportsbook
Denver Nuggets vs. Washington Wizards
Wednesday, March 22, 2023 – 07:00 PM EDT at Capital One Arena
Nikola Jokic (Denver Nuggets)
- Over 11.5 Rebounds
The Washington Wizards come into tonight’s game in a slump, and at the worst possible time. The Wizards were playing strong basketball and looked to be solidifying their spot in the NBA’s Play-In tournament, but their play over the last two weeks has put them in a tough spot. The Wizards have only got one win in their last seven games.
The Denver Nuggets were slumping as well but they look to be turning things around on this road trip. The Nuggets are 2-2 on the trip so far and can secure a winning five-game road trip tonight with a win in Washington. They are in first place in the Western Conference.
The Pick
The last time these two teams played Nikola Jokic scored 43 points and grabbed 14 rebounds. This is a prime matchup for Jokic, who will take advantage of the slender Kristaps Porzingis.
Jokic has gone over this rebounding total in eight of his last 11 games. He is an excellent bet to go over his rebounding total tonight.
NBA Prop Pick: Nikola Jokic Over 11.5 Rebounds (-133) at Caesars Sportsbook
Portland Trail Blazers vs. Utah Jazz
Wednesday, March 14, 2023 – 09:00 PM EDT at Vivint Arena
Walker Kessler (Utah Jazz)
The Utah Jazz are coming into this game off two strong wins. The Jazz defeated the Boston Celtics on Saturday night and then defeated the Sacramento Kings on Sunday night. They did that with two starters out of the lineup with injuries.
The Jazz are 35-36. They have won four of their last five games. Although everyone thought the Jazz were tanking, this team is still in contention for the postseason.
The Trail Blazers are on the opposite trajectory. They have lost six straight games and nine of their last 11 games. Portland will hope to turn things around against the team that their star player has had success against this season. Damian Lillard had 60 points the last time these two teams faced off when the Blazers beat the Jazz 134-124.
The Pick
Walker Kessler has been the steal of the draft. Kessler is averaging 8.7 points and 8.4 rebounds per game. He has recorded a double-double in six of his last eight outings.
Kessler has more blocks in fewer minutes this season than the man who was traded away for Kessler, All-Star center Rudy Gobert. The Jazz made an excellent move to get a younger rim protector on a cheaper contract. Kessler will reinforce the wisdom of that move with another double-double tonight.
