NBA Week 8 Rundown: Top Betting Matchups and Picks for this Weekend

Utah Jazz vs Denver Nuggets – Saturday

The young Utah Jazz have found their niche this season, as Lauri Markkanen is having a breakout season, and Jordan Clarkson is providing plenty of scoring with a near 20-point-per-game average.

Utah is 15-12-0 against the spread, whereas Denver is 11-14.

The Denver Nuggets are led by Nikola Jokic, who will likely give the Nuggets a ton of problems inside with his ability to bulldoze smaller defenders.

Boston Celtics vs Golden State Warriors – Saturday

The Boston Celtics are easily the best team in the NBA right now, as Jayson Tatum is playing on a completely different planet while Jaylen Brown continues his rise as one of the elite wings in the league.

Boston is 17-9 against the spread, whereas Golden State is 12-14.

The Golden State Warriors have come on as of late, as Stephen Curry is putting up numbers on par with his MVP season, while Klay Thompson has been rediscovering his form. Andrew Wiggins has blossomed into his role with the Warriors, while Draymond Green is still proving he has a lot left in the tank with his all-around ability to score, pass, rebound, push the pace and defend.

Brooklyn Nets vs Indiana Pacers – Saturday

The Brooklyn Nets are back to winning basketball games after a slow start to the season, as the duo of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving continue to lead the way in scoring while the role players are finding their niche.

Brooklyn is 11-14-1 against the spread, whereas Indiana is 14-11.

The Indiana Pacers are one of the surprising teams in the league thus far, as Tyrese Haliburton is blossoming into one of the best point guards in the league with his ability to score and pass.

Every game between these two teams has been a battle, so expect this one to be no different.

Phoenix Suns vs New Orleans Pelicans – Sunday

The Phoenix Suns are led by Devin Booker, who is an absolute microwave when he gets hot from the field.

Phoenix is 14-11 against the spread, whereas New Orleans is 13-11.

The New Orleans Pelicans are led by the dynamic duo of Zion Williamson and Brandon Ingram, as both have been so great offensively. 

Sacramento Kings vs New York Knicks – Sunday

The Sacramento Kings are one of the better teams offensively in the league, with De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis running the show.

Sacramento is 15-8 against the spread, whereas New York is 11-12-2.

The New York Knicks have been playing better basketball as of late, with Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle starting to find a comfort level as teammates.
