NBA Betting Tips – 18 January

action continues tomorrow morning and has prepared his betting tips for three matches. Feel free to take his tips and use them on your bet slip.

18 Jan 03:00 San Antonio Spurs v Brooklyn Nets

The San Antonio Spurs are allowing 121.7 points per game, that’s the worst record in the league. The Nets are favourites for this game and should win and I see them scoring high with over 115 points, but the Spurs will also not just sit back. Their scoring will also help bring them over because that’s the bet to go for here. Brooklyn is top 5 when it comes to field goal percentage and this Spurs defense is what they need to bounce back.

18 Jan 04:00 Denver Nuggets v Portland Trail Blazers

The Nuggets are a really good team but when they play at home they can beat just about anyone. The last time Portland beat Denver was in 2019 in the playoffs but ever since then, Portland has never won a game at the Ball arena. This week all the NBA stars have had excellent performances and this game is just one for Nikola Jokic, someone leading in the MVP race. The Nuggets are the better team offensively and defensively, take them to win here.

18 Jan 05:00 Los Angeles Clippers v Philadelphia 76ers

Here you get a game between sides who are both top 5 in the fewest points allowed per game. Both teams also are below 100 when it comes to pace with the Clippers at 97.96 and the Sixers at 97.83. This is going to be a slow game and with the way both teams have been playing defence, I have to take the under.
