17 Feb 02:30 Chicago Bulls v Milwaukee Bucks

Here we can only go with one team and that is Milwaukee, a team currently on an 11-game winning streak. What’s surprising is that the Bulls are 2-0 against the Bucks this season, but in those 2 victories, Demar DeRozan dropped excellent performances. The Bucks struggle guarding Derozan but lucky for them he will be out for this game. Take the Bucks to head into the All-star weekend with 12 wins in a row.

17 Feb 03:00 Minnesota Timberwolves v Washington Wizards

Both sides here are very inconsistent whether it’s covering the spread or moneyline, the bet to go for here is the over. The Timberwolves are currently sitting on 4th when it comes to pace, so this will be another game they will try to be explosive. The Wizards will not want to lose this game and will try to match the Timberwolves. The Wizards are perfectly healthy with Kyle Kuzma returning. The over has been the best bet for a Minnesota game, and the last time these two played, the game had over 260 points.

17 Feb 05:00 Phoenix Suns v LA Clippers

This is going to be a good game to end the week but I am taking the underdog here. The Suns have been playing good basketball and Terrence Ross should make his debut here. This Clippers team with a healthy Kawhi is not good for the league, they now even have a stronger defence than they did before. Both sides are very similar when it comes to FG percentage, points allowed and rebounds but what will help the Clippers will be the experience. This game will likely go under but it should be close either the Clippers cover the spread or they win.
