The Bucks have resurrected the player in Brandon Jennings who almost put up a triple double in his debut for the team that drafted him originally. As the season winds down, it’s all about seeding with one of these teams focusing on the lottery once more.
After the Magic’s form against the Spurs last night (loss by 36 points), its safe to say they wont be coming out looking to advance so take the Bucks here with the spread quite an inciting option.
Best Bet = Milwaukee WIN or Milwaukee -8.5

The Celtics will be underdogs at home with some concerns with key players. Irving, J.Brown, Horford and Smart all considered doubtful with the latter likely done for the season.
With no real incentive to push up the Standings, Boston may not risk their stars which doesn’t necessarily mean they are easy beats. They have capable depth and a genius Coach that can make any lineup successful. In addition, the Wizards are on a road B2B.
Best Bet = Boston +3.5

The Heat are in dangerous territory hanging on to the eighth seed with a 5.5 game gap with 14 games remaining. Such games on the road where they are 0-8 in recent travels doesnt make us any more confident.
All we are holding on to is the prospect of a tanking Kings team. Especially with Whiteside and Wade set to miss.
Best Bet = Miami WIN

Purely based on player availability, the Warriors are still a good choice. Steph may be on the sidelines in cotton wool but cant really know until the lineups are confirmed with no other stars getting a rest.
The Warriors are in no danger of dropping further down the Standings while the Lakers have had a great run recently but the pace at The Oracle on a B2B could stretch them.
Best Bet = Golden State WIN or Golden State -5.5
