NBA Best Bet: Dallas Mavericks +7.5 over Phoenix Suns

I like Dallas here. The Mavericks are poised to cover the 7.5-point spread against a Phoenix Suns team currently enduring a three-game home losing streak. Dallas thrives in these spots, boasting an 18-11 ATS record when playing an opponent on equal rest and a solid 18-17 ATS mark as an underdog this year. The Mavs’ recent 2-1 ATS performance in their last three road games further underscores their ability to stay competitive away from home. With rookie Cooper Flagg’s versatile scoring and Phoenix’s recent perimeter shooting struggles, the Mavericks have a statistical edge that should be enough to keep this contest tight through the final whistle. Final score projection: PHOENIX SUNS 112, DALLAS MAVERICKS 108.

NBA Best Bet: Los Angeles Lakers +8.5 over San Antonio Spurs

I’d take Los Angeles in this game. The Lakers are primed to cover the 8.5-point spread against the Spurs, leaning on their remarkable 7-2 ATS record when playing with a rest disadvantage this season. Despite the taxing schedule, Los Angeles has remained a reliable bet at Crypto.com Arena, posting a 13-9 ATS mark as the home team this season. The Lakers’ 18-15 ATS record in conference play further proves they rise to the occasion against Western Conference rivals. By relying on their home-court energy and veteran presence, the Lakers are well-positioned to stifle San Antonio’s rhythm and should be able to keep this contest manageable until the end. Final score projection: SAN ANTONIO SPURS 114, LOS ANGELES LAKERS 109.
