NBA Picks for Sunday, March 30, 2025 (0-2, -$325)
Houston Rockets at Phoenix Suns.
Line: Rockets by 1.
9:00 PM ET
The Rockets have won many games recently, but they’ve been a money pit as far as betting is concerned. They’re just 1-6 against the spread in their previous seven games. They also have to battle the Lakers tomorrow, so they could be looking past the Suns, who are fighting for their playoff lives.
Player Prop: The Rockets are a great defensive team, but they allow a lot of production to point guards, so I like Tyus Jones tonight. The best number is over 7.5 points -125 at DraftKings. You can Get $250 in bonus bets from DraftKings by clicking the link.

NBA Picks for Saturday, March 29, 2025 (2-1, +$95)
Boston Celtics at San Antonio Spurs.
Line: Celtics by 13.
8:00 PM ET
I don’t really like any sides today, so I’ll have three player prop bets instead. If I had to pick one side, it would be the Spurs +13 because the Celtics are stuck in the No. 2 seed. However, they are just so much better than the Spurs and happen to be playing incredibly well right now, so I don’t want to fade them.
Player Prop: Let’s begin with this game. The Spurs have no answer for opposing centers, so Kristaps Porzingis looks like a great play tonight. The best number is over 19.5 points -106 at DraftKings. You can Get $250 in bonus bets from DraftKings by clicking the link.
Player Prop: The Bulls are playing great basketball right now, but they can’t defend point guards whatsoever. We had success betting Spencer Dinwiddie several nights ago, so let’s do it again. The best number is over 13.5 points -102 at FanDuel. You can Get $200 in bonus bets from FanDuel by clicking the link.
Player Prop: The Grizzlies are one of the worst teams at defending power forwards. This bodes well for Rui Hachimura, especially if Austin Reaves misses tonight’s game. The best number is over 11.5 points -115 at ESPNBet.

NBA Picks for Friday, March 28, 2025
Los Angeles Clippers at Brooklyn Nets.
Line: Clippers by 12.
7:30 PM ET
This is a classic sandwich spot for the Clippers, who are coming off a big win against the Knicks and will be looking ahead to their battle against the Cavaliers. Meanwhile, the Nets have covered seven of their previous 10 games, so this number seems like it’s way too high.
Player Prop: The Clippers are a great defensive team, but they’re weak to point guards. D’Angelo Russell had a rough outing following his return from injury, but he should play better tonight. The best number is over 14.5 points -105 at FanDuel. You can Get $250 in bonus bets from DraftKings by clicking the link.

NBA Picks for Thursday, March 27, 2025 (1-1, +$90)
San Antonio Spurs at Cleveland Cavaliers.
Line: Cavaliers by 14.5.
7:00 PM ET
We really got screwed on the Nikola Jokic news yesterday. He was listed as doubtful when I posted my pick, and yet he somehow played. Anyway, the Spurs have won three of their previous four, so I don’t see why they couldn’t cover this large spread. The Cavaliers, who won’t have Evan Mobley tonight, are on cruise control because they’re up 4.5 games on Boston with 10 games remaining.
Player Prop: I’ve mentioned this a few times, but the Cavaliers tend to be weak against power forwards. Harrison Barnes usually scores in double digits, so I don’t see why he wouldn’t do that again. The best number is over 10.5 points -108 at FanDuel. You can Get $200 in bonus bets from FanDuel by clicking the link.

NBA Picks for Wednesday, March 26, 2025 (1-1, -$100)
Milwaukee Bucks at Denver Nuggets.
Line: Nuggets by 7.5.
9:00 PM ET
The Nuggets are 13-22 without Nikola Jokic the past four seasons. That’s straight up; not against the spread. With that in mind, how can they be expected to cover a -7.5 line? The Bucks won’t have Giannis Antetokounmpo tonight, but they’ll still have Brook Lopez and Kyle Kuzma going up against a poor Denver defense.
Player Prop: We’re betting Gary Trent for the same reason we bet Coby White a couple of nights ago. The Nuggets can’t defend wings at all, and Trent’s scoring will be up with no Antetokounmpo. The best number is over 14.5 points +100 at DraftKings. You can Get $250 in bonus bets from DraftKings by clicking the link.

NBA Picks for Tuesday, March 25, 2025 (0-2, -$305)
Dallas Mavericks at New York Knicks.
Line: Knicks by 9.5.
7:30 PM ET
The Mavericks have been playing better of late. They’re also fighting for their playoff lives. I expect a much better effort out of them tonight than the Knicks, who are 4-7 against the spread in their previous 11 games. They sorely miss Jalen Brunson. They also have a tougher game tomorrow night versus the Clippers, so there could be a look-ahead aspect to this game.
Player Prop: The Knicks are at their weakest defending point guards, so we will be betting on Spencer Dinwiddie tonight. Dinwiddie has been hot lately, and I see no reason why that wouldn’t continue. The best number is over 15.5 points -105 at DraftKings. You can Get $250 in bonus bets from DraftKings by clicking the link.

NBA Picks for Monday, March 24, 2025 (2-0, +$300)
Chicago Bulls at Denver Nuggets.
Line: Nuggets by 2.5.
9:00 PM ET
The Bulls have been on a tear lately, winning seven of their previous nine. They’ve gone 8-1 against the spread during that stretch. The Nuggets, meanwhile, are coming off a tough win at Houston last night, and they won’t have Nikola Jokic back yet.
Player Prop: The Nuggets can’t defend wings at all, and their tired legs will make it difficult to keep up with a red-hot Coby White. The best number is over 23.5 points -128 at FanDuel. You can Get $200 in bonus bets from FanDuel by clicking the link.
NBA Pick: Bulls +2.5 +100 (2 Units) – Bookmaker — Correct; +$200
NBA Player Prop: Coby White over 23.5 points -128 (1 Unit) – FanDuel — Correct; +$100
