Get to know the Monday NBA picks earlier than anyone else and before the odds start to move. Some of the big stars in action include the Nuggets playing against the Hawks and Lakers at Magic.
Los Angeles Lakers against Philadelphia 76ers
The Lakers are missing two of their best players, LeBron James (sprained ankle) and Antony Davis (calf $ Achilles). They’re at 2-5 and have an offensive rating of 115 from their seven last games, which were rough because LeBron was not available. Now they’re giving up 115.4 PPG from their five previous matches against WCF. They’re playing at the 11th-fastest pace over their ten games previously played, and during this span, Philly ranks 7th position.
Lakers are also in the Monday NBA picks, playing against the Magic on the 29th March at 02.00.
Philadelphia is on the list of slightly favorites even after posting one of the NBA’s best nets and defensive ratings. Winning 9 of their last 10-games with such a considerable margin deserved better (you would think).
Now, the 76ers average 121.2 PPG from their last 10-meetings with Western Conference opponents, and they’ve covered five straight games. The Sixers (-5) has a crazy low Over (211.5) in a game that is missing some vital defensive standouts. As per Draftkings Sportsbook, that number is rising to 214.
The Pick: Philadelphia Moneyline – Over 211.5 (+180)
New York Knicks against Washington Wizards
The Knicks have defeated Washington by 18 points two times in this season, and they look like they can handle the defenseless Wizards. New York is listed as home favorites this year and is a league-best 7-2 against the spread (ATS). As the Knicks have covered five of their six home games, the Wizards dropped 9 of their last 11 games.
This season, Washington is at 5-19 against their opponent and allows a lofty 52 PPG in the paint. The Knicks score a good percentage of their points down low. Washington ranks 29th in net rating, which is (-8.2) over their last 10-games. They allow the most PPG (120.2), and they have the third-most FTA per game.
The Pick: Knicks (-3) or better
