Top 3 NBA Betting Picks for Saturday, February 12th (2022)

Feb 12, 2022 - 2:47 PM

Yesterday was a great start to the weekend. We went 2-0-1, and the San Antonio Spurs won 136-121 instead of covering the plus eight-point spread. The push was okay because the Cleveland Cavaliers were down most of the game and came back in the fourth quarter to win by seven points. That means the Pacers could be a good buying opportunity for bettors. Jayson Tatum scored 24 points, which proves that Tatum scoring under 28.5 points is gaining value. Let’s see if we can continue our strong weekend.

Toronto Raptors -3.5 -110 at DraftKings Sportsbook

The Toronto Raptors might be the hottest team in the NBA right now besides the Phoenix Suns. They are on a seven-game winning streak and are only getting better. Pascal Siamkam, Gary Trent Jr., and Fred VanVleet have carried this team to the next level. Tonight they play the Denver Nuggets. Denver is missing Michael Porter Jr and Monte Morris. Those two are impact players for the Nuggets that will make a difference, especially on the second half of a back-to-back. The Nuggets will have tired legs going into this game in Toronto.

Sacramento Kings Moneyline -150 at DraftKings Sportsbook

This game is more about the Wizards. The Kings lost some key pieces but gained one of the best centers in the league. They gained some decent role players too. The Wizards added Porzingis, who is currently out, and sent Harrell to the Hornets. With Beal still injured, the Wizards will be a team that has to scrape together wins. I think that is why they lose this game. They don’t have the talent to compete against other teams right now. Until Beal and Prozingis are back, avoid the Wizards and bet against them when possible.

Memphis Grizzlies -7 -110 at DraftKings Sportsbook

The Grizzlies have improved over the last month. Memphis is now one of the top teams in the NBA and can beat anyone on any given night. Ja Morant is in the MVP conversation. They are a younger team with a load of talent. The Hornets are a team that can score but struggle against the best defenses in the league. The Grizzlies are the #3 ranked defense. Take the Grizzlies tonight.
