Looking forward to the NBA starting back up, and I do see some opportunities in the re start. I suspect that motivation is going to be the biggest factor in the re start. Also, an eye test on which players have stayed in shape and which teams rotations show that they are actually trying to win.
We also have a 3* NBA PLAY for opening weekend. Love this play and think the line moves in our favor!
2* Oklahoma City Thunder +1 against the Utah Jazz.
This is mainly a play against Utah. Utah is without their second leading scorer for the remainder of the season, plus might be experiencing some internal issues with the relationship between their two best players in Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert. The market reacted quickly to fade Utah in their first game back, as the Pelicans opened a two point dog but have been bet up to a two point favorite. The thunder are comparable power rating wise to the Pelicans, so there’s no reason they also shouldn’t be a favorite in this game. The thunder have been undervalued all year, which is why they are a league best 63% ATS this year, and I think they are still undervalued in their first game back.
