Rockets -1.5 at Spurs (-110, DraftKings)
The Spurs are having a rough go of it, losing their last 11 games and failing to cover in 10 of those. The Rockets aren’t a whole lot better, but they have at least won and covered in two of their last three games. Plus, the Spurs are 2-10 ATS versus teams allowing a FG% of 46.0% or higher this season. So I have a lot of faith in the Rockets to cover this spread against the Spurs tonight.

Colorado State +4 vs. Colorado (-110, Caesars)
Colorado has failed to cover the spread in their last four straight games and Colorado State has covered in two of their last three, so I like Colorado State to cover this tiny spread as the underdog here. Colorado State has also covered one of their two spreads on the road and Colorado has only covered two of their three spreads at home. With all of this in mind, I like Colorado State to cover this one. 

Bet this at Caesars and if it loses, you'll get refunded up to $1,250 in free bets!

Trail Blazers +1.5 vs. Nuggets (-110, BetMGM)

The Trail Blazers have covered the spread in their last two games and the Nuggets have failed to cover three straight. The Nuggets have also lost their last three games outright, including their last two on the road, so I like the Trail Blazers to cover this one at home tonight. Plus, the Blazers are 37-28 ATS after a non-conference game over the last three years. With the Trail Blazers coming into this home game with momentum, I see Portland covering this spread here tonight.
