With the holidays at hand and the start of the new year just around the corner, we’re going ‘beyond the arc’ with this week’s top NBA betting picks in an effort to help you cash in early and often. Three games this week featuring a bunch of NBA Championship odds hopefuls, including the defending champion Golden State Warriors are in the spotlight.
Now, let’s get started.
While Giannis Antetokounmpo is a definite superstar of the highest order, I’m feeling like Milwaukee needs to spread the ball around a bit more this season.
This game will be all about Oklahoma’s Big three versus the ‘Greek Freak’. The Thunder win to hold it down at home.
