All eyes on the Suns as KD joins a team that was in the finals two years ago. The Suns have won 6 in a row in the matchup. At this point Phoenix is taking 70% of the action and they adjust it down to 3.5 from 6.5. The Bulls really need a win to get closer to the Play In after losing in Toronto. The line move down is a warning sign from the Suns for me in game 1. They are 18-13 at home vs. 13-19 on the road for the Suns. I’m gonna go with the Bulls here and the world will take the Suns in KD’s debut. OVER 222.5 PHX/CHI

Charlotte is hosting the rising Magic team. The Magic are however 11-21 on the road so I won’t be laying the points here. Charlotte beat them 3 of 4 last year, but Orlando is up 2-1 this year. Since I’m not laying the points I must be taking them Hornets +4

OVER 227 NETS / CELTICS

The Heat are 8-3 vs. the Knicks since 2018 but it has been two in row for New York as they come in 3.5 point favorites. Butler Game Time Decision. I’ll take the Heat +3.5 at home.

Jazz have won 8 in row vs. the Thunder but Clarkson and Sexton are out, SGA may be out for OKC. I’ll take the Jazz even money.

The Clippers shut down early last night after losing the 3rd by 26 when they were up 11 at half. No Leonard tonight but they may have enough to keep it close or they are an enticing +270 money line dog. Clippers +8.5

As Always Best of Luck and Enjoy Your Friday
