Cleveland should extend their winning run against the Pacers, while Boston are primed for a big victory in San Antonio.
Cleveland Cavaliers to beat Indiana Pacers – {ODDS:218234451:10/17}
The Cavaliers should extend their winning streak to 14 when they travel to Indiana on Friday night.
Cleveland have won nine of their 12 away games so far this season – including each of their last seven – and they now face a Pacers team that have lost three of their last six.
Indiana are a decent offensive team, but they’ll struggle to outscore the Cavs, who currently rank fourth in points per game.
Orlando Magic to beat Denver Nuggets – {ODDS:218235494:23/20}
Orlando have bounced back from a nine-game losing run to win three of their last five, and that revival should continue when they host the Nuggets.
Home advantage will be crucial for the Magic against a Denver team that have been much worse on the road than at home this season.
The Nuggets have lost three of 12 away games so far, and conceded over 120 points in each of their last two against the Dallas Mavericks and the New Orleans Pelicans.
Toronto Raptors to beat Memphis Grizzlies – {ODDS:218235310:20/51}
The Raptors have won eight of their last 10 games, including all of their last four, and have scored over 120 points in each of their last three.
The Grizzlies have lost 12 of their last 13, and have only won five of 13 at home all season.
This is a banker.
Boston Celtics to beat San Antonio Spurs – {ODDS:218234621:5/6}
In the game of the night between two potential title contenders, expect Brad Stevens’ Celtics to come out on top.
Boston have lost just twice in 12 road games this season, and they’re unbeaten in eight games against Western Conference teams.
They won by 14 when these teams met at the end of October, and, while Friday’s game will probably be much closer, the Celtics are again worth backing at an dodds-against price.
