Charlotte Hornets vs New York Knicks Preview
Sat, Dec 10. 00:10 (UK time)
Only the Magic and Spurs have a worse net rating than the Charlotte Hornets over the last 10 games. Charlotte is just 4-8 at home on the season and faces a New York Knicks team with a 6-6 record on the road and an impressive 6-1 mark against teams under .500.
New York hasn’t exactly been scorching of late, going 4-6 over their last 10, but they are middle of the pack in net rating over that period, and has already beaten Charlotte once this season.
CHARLOTTE HORNETS VS NEW YORK KNICKS BEST BET
Both of these rosters are flawed, but the Knicks being this price on the moneyline is a real surprise, considering that LaMelo Ball, Gordon Hayward and Cody Martin are out for the hosts.
These are the games New York needs to win if they are to meet their expectations. We expect them to get the job done on Friday night.
- Selection: New York Knicks Moneyline
- Best Odds: 1.61 (Bet365)
- Stakes: 5/10

Philadelphia 76ers vs Los Angeles Lakers Preview
Sat, Dec 10. 00:40 (UK time)
The Sixers and Lakers have improved after poor starts. The same can be said for All-NBA big men Anthony Davis and Joel Embiid. Philly has slowed of late, losing three in a row, but their defence has climbed to fourth in the Association.
The Lakers have suffered consecutive losses with Davis suffering from an illness. He is expected to return for this game, though, and even with those disappointing games, Los Angeles is top 10 in net rating over the last 10.
PHILADELPHIA 76ERS VS LOS ANGELES LAKERS BEST BET
With homecourt, it isn’t a surprise that the Sixers are favoured by a handful of points. If Davis returns, however, the Lakers should at least be competitive given how Philly has played of late.
In games he’s been able to finish, Davis has passed this line in 12 straight.
- Selection: Anthony Davis over 20.5 points and Lakers +9.5
- Best Odds: 1.71 (Bet365)
- Stakes: 4/10

Memphis Grizzlies vs Detroit Pistons Preview
Sat, Dec 10. 01:00 (UK time)
The Detroit Pistons have been feisty of late, winning two of their last four. Both of their losses have been by 10 or fewer points in that stretch, including a 10-point loss to the Memphis Grizzlies a few days ago.
Memphis is rolling, having gone 6-1 over their last seven. They are eighth in net rating, and top 10 at both ends of the floor. Injuries continue to be a nuisance, with Desmond Bane sidelined for a prolonged period, but the Grizz have the depth to keep racking up wins in the regular season.
MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES VS DETROIT PISTONS BEST BET
This Grizzlies team excels at beating the teams they are meant to beat. They have a 10-8-1 record against the spread as favourites and should be able to cruise to a win in front of their own fans in this game.
- Selection: Memphis Grizzlies -10.5
- Best Odds: 1.91 (Bet365)
- Stakes: 3/10

WHAT IS A Basketball ACCA?
A basketball acca is an accumulator bet, a type of bet that consists of several selections across different matches that are combined together into one single bet. An acca usually. consists of at least four selections but many more can be included. There will be odds for the single bet as a whole which is calculated by multiplying the odds of all of the selections. A basketball acca is one of the most popular ways to bet. This is the case because they can create potentially massive odds for a small stake. Many punters choose to create basketball accas which is what we have created here. If one of these selections loses then the basketball acca will lose. This type of bet needs every selection to win in order to succeed.
