Other than a ferocious Nuggets comeback and some monster highlights, Monday night was pretty mundane in the NBA.
Tuesday features seven games, including a TNT doubleheader. Let's get to our favorite three bets.
Sixers @ Knicks (-6, O/U 208.5)
The Knicks and Sixers met on Sunday in one of the ugliest offensive games of the season. In a contest that looked like it belonged in the 80s, the Sixers won 79-73.
The Knicks were uncharacteristically awful offensively. They shot 22% from three and 32% from the field, a stark contrast from their season averages of 36% shooting from long range and 46% from the field.
It's fair to expect New York to return to its typical outputs in Tuesday's rematch against a struggling Philadelphia defense that's missing Joel Embiid.
On the other side, OG Anunoby is suiting up for the Knicks for the first time since Jan. 27. The injury-riddled Knicks desperately need a jolt on both ends, and Anunoby should be that spark.
Pick: Knicks -6
Ivica Zubac: Under 8.5 rebounds
We usually target the over on Ivica Zubac, who's been consistently profitable for bettors. But Tuesday's matchup against the Timberwolves could be a challenge.
Rudy Gobert's presence inside creates difficulties for opposing bigs. The Timberwolves allow the fewest rebounds per game to centers.
Zubac's minutes have been reduced in recent weeks, and he's dealt with some nagging injuries. He's only played more than 30 minutes once in the last month, leading to a decline in production. He's grabbed less than nine rebounds in four of the past six games.
Odds: -110 (playable to -120)
Myles Turner: Over 24.5 points and rebounds
Myles Turner's scoring has decreased slightly this month, but he and the Pacers can earn a statement win against the best team in the West on Tuesday night.
The Thunder are the NBA's fourth-worst rebounding squad, which should allow Turner to control the glass against an undersized group. Oklahoma City gives up the third-most rebounds per game to opposing centers.
The Pacers can use Turner in pick-and-pop situations, but against a small team like the Thunder, expect him to be around the rim frequently for rebounding and put-back opportunities.
Odds: -120
