With the NFL season officially concluded, it’s go time for the NBA and there is not a better way to start it as we have a jam-packed ten game slate in store for you tonight.
We have a doubleheader on NBA TV to headline the slate with two epic showdowns. In the early window, the Milwaukee Bucks host the Denver Nuggets just as the Bucks find themselves with a 2-5 record under Doc Rivers. It may be too early to completly panic in Milwaukee, but a statement win tonight would go a long way in rebuilding confidence.
Closing out the slate, the LA Clippers host the Minnesota Timberwolves in what should be a great battle against the two top teams in the Western Confernce.
Elsewhere on the slate, in the East the Cleveland Cavaliers and Indiana Pacers both sit as double-digit favorites just both squads look to climb the Eastern Conference standings while the Philadelphia 76ers continue to slide without Joel Embiid.
In the West, the Dallas Mavericks are the biggest favorites on tonight’s slate over the pitiful Washington Wizards, and there is an interesting matchup between the Golden State Warriors and Utah Jazz to keep an eye on that should be an epic high-scoring game.
Tonight should be a fun one, so let’s dive in and pump out some winners!
