Dallas Mavericks @ Washington Wizards -> Cheat Sheet

Two bottom-table teams but different issues: Dallas are injury-bitten and the league’s worst scoring offense lately; Washington bleed points (#30 defense) and just gave up 148 to CLE. If Kyshawn George (illness) is back, WAS regain spacing. DAL should find easier paint looks vs a soft rim defense.

Daniel Gafford over 8.5 points — averages 9.6; strong interior matchup.
Klay Thompson over 1.5 assists — averaging ~2 with 60% L10.

Last meeting: Raptors 127, 76ers 109 (Mar 30)

Toronto Raptors @ Philadelphia 76ers -> Cheat Sheet

TOR on a B2B but winners of four straight; PHI are thin (Embiid minutes cap, multiple role guys on restrictions), pushing starters into heavy workloads. TOR’s length (Barnes/Poeltl) can squeeze PHI’s paint scoring and glass.

Best PHI props

Kelly Oubre Jr. over 1.5 threes made — 80% L10.
Trendon Watford over 7.5 points — 80% L10 scoring pop off bench.
Jared McCain over 9.5 Points+Rebounds — 70% L10 usage bump with injuries.

Best TOR props

Jamal Shead over 11.5 Points+Rebounds+Assists — 80% L10 all-around role.
RJ Barrett over 1.5 threes made — 80% L10.

Chicago Bulls @ Cleveland Cavaliers

Tip: 02:00 AM CET | Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, Cleveland
Last meeting: Cavs 112, Bulls 119 (Oct 9 — preseason)

Chicago Bulls @ Cleveland Cavaliers -> Cheat Sheet

Cavs just hung 148 on WAS and have won three straight; Garland is ramping and unlocks their half-court. Bulls’ best creation has come from Giddey (nearly triple-double form), but CLE’s length at the rim is a problem.

Best CLE props

Sam Merrill over 10.5 points — 70% L10; spacing beneficiary with Garland back.
Darius Garland over 15.5 points — rising minutes and touch (60% L10).

Best CHI props

Los Angeles Lakers @ Atlanta Hawks

Tip: 02:00 AM CET | State Farm Arena, Atlanta
Last meeting: Lakers 119, Hawks 102 (Jan 3)
Line snapshot: LAL -4.5 | 228.5

Los Angeles Lakers @ Atlanta Hawks -> Cheat Sheet

No LeBron and no Trae. LAL’s five-game streak has been defense-driven; role guys (Ayton/Vanderbilt/Rui) carry peripheral markets. ATL are juggling roles without Young and could be down Jalen Johnson, increasing front-court usage for Okongwu/Porziņģis types.

Best LAL props

Deandre Ayton over 0.5 blocks — 90% L10; rim protection travels.
Rui Hachimura over 1.5 threes made — 80% L10 as spot-up valve.
Jarred Vanderbilt over 0.5 steals — 80% L10 activity.

Best ATL props

Kristaps Porziņģis over 0.5 blocks — 70% L10 against heavy paint attacks.
Onyeka Okongwu over 4.5 field goals made — steady rim rolls (60% L10).
Nickeil Alexander-Walker over 0.5 steals — 60% L10; hands in lanes vs a careful but shorthanded LAL.

Portland Trail Blazers @ Miami Heat

Tip: 02:00 AM CET | Kaseya Center, Miami
Last meeting: Blazers 116, Heat 107 (Jan 21)

Portland Trail Blazers @ Miami Heat -> cheat sheet

POR have won 4 of 5 with balanced scoring (Avdija/Grant/Sharpe). MIA are on a B2B, likely without Bam (toe), which opens the glass and paint—though Spo’s rotation still squeezes peripherals. Watch Powell/Wiggins wings to carry some creation.

Best POR props

Deni Avdija over 22.5 points — 80% L10, primary usage.
Shaedon Sharpe over 3.5 threes made — 80% L10 volume.
Jerami Grant over 17.5 points — 70% L10 heater off the bench.

Best MIA props

Norman Powell over 1.5 assists — 70% L10 secondary playmaking.
Nikola Jović over 3.5 rebounds — 60% L10; extra minutes with Bam out.
Kel’el Ware over 0.5 steals — 60% L10 activity.

New Orleans Pelicans @ San Antonio Spurs

Tip: 02:00 AM CET | Frost Bank Center, San Antonio
Last meeting: Spurs 120, Pelicans 116 (Oct 24)

New Orleans Pelicans @ San Antonio Spurs -> Cheat Sheet

SA just beat HOU and now add De’Aaron Fox back—massive on-ball upgrade. Pels have won two straight but remain shorthanded (Zion/Poole/Missi out) and lean on defense/variance. Spurs’ tempo with Castle/Fox stresses a NO team using its 7th different lineup.

Best NOP props

Jeremiah Fears over 0.5 steals — 75% L10.
Derik Queen over 0.5 steals — 63% L10; active hands.
Trey Murphy III over 0.5 steals — 60% L10.

Best SAS props

De’Aaron Fox over 23.5 Points+Rebounds+Assists — 90% L10; engine returns.
Julian Champagnie over 4.5 rebounds — 90% L10 wing glass.
Stephon Castle over 27.5 Points+Rebounds+Assists — 90% L10 all-around spike.

Indiana Pacers @ Denver Nuggets

Tip: 03:00 AM CET | Ball Arena, Denver
Last meeting: Pacers 125, Nuggets 120 (Apr 6)

Indiana Pacers @ Denver Nuggets -> cheat sheet

Indy are injury-riddled (no Haliburton; Nembhard Q) but rested. Denver are 6–2 and on a B2B, yet blew out GS, resting Jokic late. Expect controlled pace with Murray/Jokic toggling pressure; Indy’s young guards must rebound.

Best DEN props

Jamal Murray over 8.5 Rebounds+Assists — 80% L10; secondary facilitation/pop on boards.
Christian Braun over 2.5 assists — 70% L10 connector minutes.
Tim Hardaway Jr. over 11.5 Points+Rebounds+Assists — 80% L10 bench punch.

Best IND props

Andrew Nembhard over 0.5 threes made — 80% L10 if active (monitor).
Pascal Siakam over 12.5 Rebounds+Assists — steady load, 60% L10.

Phoenix Suns @ LA Clippers

Tip: 04:30 AM CET | Intuit Dome, Inglewood
Last meeting: Suns 115, Clippers 102 (Nov 6)

Phoenix Suns @ LA Clippers -> cheat sheet

PHX look healthier—Jalen Green debuted (29 pts) and fit with Booker; role guys (Allen, O’Neale) splashed 19 team threes in the Thursday win. LAC availability is the swing (Kawhi ankle, Harden personal). If they’re out again, Zubac/role wings carry defense, but PHX spacing punishes.

Best PHX props

Grayson Allen over 3.5 assists — 90% L10; bigger on-ball share with Green/Booker gravity.
Ryan Dunn over 8.5 points — 80% L10; slashing vs switched wings.
Collin Gillespie over 16.5 Points+Rebounds+Assists — 70–80% L10 utility minutes.

Best LAC props

Derrick Jones Jr. over 0.5 blocks — 90% L10; weak-side event rate.
Bradley Beal over 1.5 assists — 80% L10 even on low scoring nights.
Bogdan Bogdanović over 2.5 rebounds — 70% L10.
