The live betting community finally had a taste of top-class NBA action from all 30 teams in the association. Depending on how your favourite team performed, you either had a great or painful time with the exciting betting odds of SBOBET.
The weekend picks up the pace as 10 fantastic games vie for your attention and free bets. Don’t know which team to back up? Let me help you with that!
Atlanta Hawks @ Charlotte Hornets (October 21, 07:00 GMT+8)
Dennis Schroder and the Hawks pulled off an impressive win away in Dallas and are looking to continue their form away. While the Hornets did endure a tough road loss against the Pistons, the Spectrum Center might be able to will them to a close W this time. Go for +6.00 Atlanta @ 1.98.
Portland Trail Blazers @ Indiana Pacers (October 21, 07:00 GMT+8)
This game should be a high-scoring one if everything goes to plan. The Pacers proved that they can score when needed with Victor Oladipo and Myles Turner leading the charge. While the Blazers won’t be able to replicate their winning margin in Phoenix, I think Damian Lillard and company should do just fine. Make your bets for Portland -4.00 @ 2.02.
Cleveland Cavaliers @ Milwaukee Bucks (October 21, 07:00 GMT+8)
The young season does not let up on marquee games as the Cavaliers make the trip to Wisconsin to face the Bucks.
Fans can expect outrageous plays from two of the best forwards in the NBA. LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo will likely put on a show for the Bradley Center crowd. Both teams played tight games last season, and I think the Cavaliers are still the team to beat in this matchup. Place a bet on the Cavs’ -2.50 @ 1.94 Asian Handicap odds.
Detroit Pistons @ Washington Wizards (October 21, 07:00 GMT+8)
The Pistons pulled off a good win against Charlotte to notch a good first win of the season. Tobias Harris put on a performance that reminds us why the Orlando Magic pinned their hopes on him. However, I don’t think any heroics from him and Reggie Jackson could stop a rampaging John Wall from winning. It’s best to go for Washington -6.00 @ 1.94 here.
Boston Celtics @ Philadelphia 76ers (October 21, 07:00 GMT+8)
The Celtics are somehow getting by without Gordon Hayward thanks to Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum. However, Kyrie Irving still needs to take the big step and lead the C’s to a win against a very young and talented Philadelphia squad. Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid will be horrible opponents for Brad Stevens.
Orlando Magic @ Brooklyn Nets (October 21, 07:30 GMT+8)
Jeremy Lin’s absence is already making the Brooklyn Nets look poorly tooled to handle their opponents this season. D’Angelo Russell will now need to double his efforts in order to stop the Magic from winning at the Barclays Center. I don’t think D-Lo’s icy veins are enough to stop Orlando, so place your bets on Orlando +2.00 @ 1.94.
Utah Jazz @ Minnesota Timberwolves (October 21, 08:00 GMT+8)
It will be odd to see Ricky Rubio not making a pass to a Minnesota player, but he’s clearly thriving under Quinn Snyder’s system. He and the Jazz will be tough opposition to the new-look Timberwolves, but there isn’t any reason for Jimmy Butler and company to win at home. This should be an easy win for the Wolves, so place a bet on Minnesota -4.00 @ 1.88.
Sacramento Kings @ Dallas Mavericks (October 21, 08:30 GMT+8)
The Mavs did take a tough loss against Atlanta, but their basketball during the game promises a lot of passing and movement. The Kings are also looking to be promising this season and will likely play through Willie Cauley-Stein and Buddy Hield. I still think the Mavs have the edge over the Kings, so -4.50 @ 1.88 in favour of the hosts promise good rewards.
Golden State Warriors @ New Orleans Pelicans (October 21, 09:30 GMT+8)
Say whatever excuses you have for the Warriors, but the defending champions still lost to the Houston Rockets. Thankfully, the team is seemingly aware of their poor form and will play New Orleans with extra motivation. Expect threes to rain from Kevin Durant and Steph Curry, so place your bets on GS -8.50 @ 1.96.
Los Angeles Lakers @ Phoenix Suns (October 21, 10:00 GMT+8)
Both of these teams lost, but the Suns went through a more humiliating opener this season. Eric Bledsoe and company will be trying to make things right by beating the Los Angeles Lakers. Lonzo Ball had a poor NBA debut, but I think he’ll bounce back here.
