NBA Schedule Quirks this week!
The WHOP has been poppin', y’all! We’re up +13.5u month to date and already have two bets locked in for Monday’s games. But first, let’s dive into this week’s schedule quirks and go matchup hunting for +CLV and more actionable betting angles.
The LA Clippers have 4 games this week, including 3 at home, where they’ve been elite. They should bounce back against the Magic tomorrow with Kawhi back, though he may struggle against their two 6’10” wing defenders. Harden and Zubac are likely to carry the load, especially with Zubac dominating despite tough rim-protector matchups. In the B2B vs Dallas, the Clips’ half-court, slow-paced style could neutralize the Mavs’ fastbreak defense, giving them the edge.
The Minnesota Timberwolves have a lighter schedule this week than the Warriors, who lead them by just half a game. With only one tough matchup against Denver, MIN has a strong chance to overtake GSW for the 6th seed. The Wolves are 3-0 against the Nuggets this season, exploiting their math advantage by taking and making more threes against Denver’s paint-heavy offense. Anthony Edwards has been unstoppable in this matchup, relentlessly carving through the Nuggets’ defense.
The Phoenix Suns struggle against slow-paced, 3PT-heavy teams like MIL, NYK, and BOS—who lead the league in 3PT attempt rate. To make matters worse, they face all three on the road this week. With a tougher schedule than Sacramento, Phoenix’s playoff hopes are in jeopardy as they fight for the final play-in spot. And now Kevin Durant is headed for a Monday MRI. Fade the Buns time in full effect?
The New York Knicks have two B2Bs this week and have transformed into a defensive unit without Brunson. They’ll need him more against the Cavs and Hawks, but their improved 3PT defense (bottom 5 in OPP threes taken and made over the last 10 games) sets them up well for both matchups. Meanwhile, expect a low-scoring grind vs PHX, as both teams are slow-paced, half-court oriented, and mid-range heavy.
