2-1 Last night, the Hornets put on a show beating the Pacers by 8 points in a result of 116-108. Our second pick was a stunner as the Lakers managed to hold the lead against the grizzlies until the fourth quarter where Ja Morant took over handing the Lakers a Loss of 109-104 covering the spread by 1 point. Zach Lavine over on points was our losing pick, he put up 25 points, we needed him to go over 27.5.
My number one pick is going to be on the Philadelphia 76ers @ Brooklyn Nets game with the nets -5.5.
KD is back tonight coming off of COVID protocol so you know he is eager to get buckets tonight. Embid is going to have to pickup on KD from time to time which will give Nicolas Claxton easy putbacks, and dunks in the paint. Claxton is also on an emotional high after he postered LeBron so look for him to be dominant in the paint.
Second and final pick tonight will come from the Cleveland Cavaliers @ Washington Wizards with the Cavaliers +3.5
A ton of the Wizards are listed under COVID protocol, and key players like Bradley Beal and KCP are listed as questionable.
The Cavaliers did lose Ricky Rubio for the entire season due to a torn ACL, but the cavs seem to have great chemistry with the guys they have on the floor. This pick is entirely dependent on if Bradley Beal plays tonight.
Lets see how this picks pan out.
