Kate Constable: Cavaliers -3.5 at Knicks

The Knicks have been struggling lately, losing four of their last five games. They’re back at home after a two-game road trip, but that isn’t going to help them much because they’re actually worse at MSG than they are on the road. New York has only covered in two of its last nine home games. The Knicks will also be without Mitchell Robinson tonight, which will allow the Cavs more scoring opportunities at the rim. Cleveland has also been up and down lately, but that’s mostly because of injuries. They should get Donovan Mitchell back tonight, giving a huge boost to the Cavs offense.

Dan Karpuc: Mavericks -7.5 vs. Wizards

Let’s get something out of the way first: Dallas has gone an NBA-worst 16-32 ATS, which means they’ve covered 33.3% of the time. That’s bad and I understand if you don’t trust them. Despite that, there’s no chance I’m going to fade the Mavericks against this Wizards squad that will now be without Kristaps Porzingis (injury) and Rui Hachimura after trading him to the Lakers. That depleted Washington frontcourt should be more impactful than the absence of Dallas’ Christian Wood. Dallas is coming off of a 112-98 loss against the Clippers, which is notable because the Mavs have gone 23-10 ATS after scoring fewer than 100 points in their last game under Jason Kidd. I expect Luka Doncic to absolutely dominate this game and will be heavily targeting all of his player prop overs as well.

Lucy Burdge: Bulls -1.5 at Pacers

The Bulls have won and covered in their last three games, while the Pacers have failed to cover in five straight during a seven-game losing streak. The Pacers have also only covered in one of their last eight games. Meanwhile, the Bulls have won six of their last nine and covered seven of those spreads. The Bulls also beat the Pacers in October and I think Chicago can take them down once again and cover this spread.

Brad Pinkerton: Hornets-Suns +135 One-Game Parlay

BetMGM NBA OGP Insurance Play of the Day

If you're not playing BetMGM's NBA OGP Insurance promo yet, you're leaving money on the table. Opt in to the promo and place a four-leg (minimum) NBA one-game parlay; if your OGP loses by one leg, you'll get your stake back in a free bet up to $25 -- and you can take advantage of this promo once every day there's an NBA game!

Here is my play for today, switching up the strategy slightly to remove spreads from the equation: Find a comfortable favorite of 5-8 points, preferably at home, take the favorite to go over its lowest team total, the 'dog to go under its highest team total and then "middle" the game total (can only lose a maximum of one leg there). There's less reward than trying to middle both the total and spread, but there's also less risk here and still a good shot at getting insurance if it doesn't hit. You can apply this strategy to any NBA game, any night:

Hornets-Suns Over 216.5
Hornets-Suns Under 236.5
Suns Over 106.5
Hornets Under 120.5
OGP odds: +135
