NBA Best Bets Odds, Picks & Predictions: Tuesday (1/24)

Jan 24, 2023 - 2:23 PM

We’re going to have an exciting slate tonight. Every game in the NBA has a projected spread of seven points or fewer, with four games sitting with a spread of one possession.

I’m eying a couple of those games. Here are some NBA wagers to consider for Tuesday’s slate.

Chicago Bulls vs. Indiana Pacers

Tyrese Haliburton will be back soon for the Pacers. But he won’t be back soon enough. Haliburton will be inactive for tonight’s game against the Bulls.

Chicago is on a three-game winning streak with wins at home against the Warriors, Pistons, and Hawks. Now they’ll be on the road facing a Pacers team that can’t find ways to win without Haliburton.

The Pacers have allowed 29.9% offensive rebounds this season, and while the Bulls aren’t very good on the offensive glass, there’s a solid chance they’ll earn more second chances in this game. Meanwhile, the Pacers turned the ball over 15.1% of the time and scored just 112.8 points per 100 possessions.

Chicago does all of the little things well. They’re a top-ten defense in turnover percentage, opponent offensive rebounding percentage, and defensive free throw rate. That’ll help them get past the struggling Pacers.

Bet: Bulls (-110)

Denver Nuggets vs. New Orleans Pelicans

The Pelicans will likely be without Brandon Ingram for tonight’s game at home. Meanwhile, the Nuggets have Nikola Jokic and Michael Porter Jr. listed as questionable for tonight’s game.

If Denver has those guys in their lineup, the Nuggets should have plenty of success on the offensive end. Denver is first in the NBA in points per 100 possession and effective field goal percentage. The Nuggets won’t dominate the offensive glass and could give up the ball many times to the Pelicans. But overall, at home, Denver should shoot at a high percentage from the floor.

On the other hand, the Pelicans turn the ball over at an even higher rate. They’ve succeeded on the offensive glass and continue to get to the foul line consistently. But Denver has limited teams to 25.4% offensive rebounds and is still above average in defensive free throw rate.

The Nuggets can keep the Pelicans off the glass, limit second chances and shoot at a higher percentage. Give me the Nuggets at -115.

Bet: Nuggets (-115)
