Grizzlies to Pull Off the Upset? NBA Best Bets today

NBA basketball continues today with the final three games of the regular season before the NBA All-Star Break. Our Basketball Forever betting bot has run 10,000 simulations on each game to give you the most data-driven insights to help you make the most informed wagers possible before the start of the All-Star Break.


1. GRIZZLIES +13.0 (-110)

Odds: -110
Probability: 54.4%
Edge: 2%
Game: Bucks vs. Grizzlies (9PM Et)

Our Model has determined one of the best NBA bets for Thursday’s game slate, setting its sights on the matchup between the Bucks vs. Grizzlies. In their last matchup, the Grizzlies were able to cover, only going down by eight points. Elite defenders like Jaren Jackson Jr. and Vince Williams should be able to cause disruptions to the Bucks main offensive weapons (Damien Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo). The Bucks got smoked by the shorthanded Heat two nights ago, and have struggled under the new direction of Head Coach Doc Rivers so far.  The Grizzlies should be able to cover this number.

The Basketball Forever betting bot predicts Grizzlies +13.0 in tonight’s game, which gives us an exciting 2% edge on the -110 odds currently available at Fanduel Sportsbook.

2. WARRIORS AND JAZZ UNDER 239.5 PTS (-105)

Odds: -105
Probability: 54.8%
Edge: 3.6%
Game: Warriors and Jazz (9PM ET)

Although the slate for today’s NBA matchups is short, our Basketball Forever betting bot has found another prop with a high probability of hitting. Specifically targeting the Warriors and Jazz matchup, our model has pinpointed Warriors and Jazz Under 239.5 pts as a recommended wager you should consider taking. With only one injury across both teams, and the Dubs on the second half of a back-to-back, expect a slow second half, and a total that doesn’t get to the number.

We recommend considering Warriors and Jazz Under 239.5 pts, available at -105 odds through BetMGM Sportsbook. Our betting bot has found a compelling edge of 3.6% for this particular bet.

3. GRIZZLIES ML (+610)

Odds: +610
Probability: 17%
Edge: 2.9%
Game: Bucks vs. Grizzlies (9PM Et)

Lastly, we’re looking at the Bucks vs. Grizzlies game again. Our Basketball Forever betting bot has its eyes on Grizzlies money line, coming in at +610 odds. Although the Bucks are heavily favored in tonight’s matchup against the Grizzlies, some of their star players including Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard are listed as “game time decision.” If they do not end up playing in tonight’s game, this number locked in pre-game could be worth a sprinkle.

We recommend placing a wager on Grizzlies moneyline, currently at +610 odds on Fanduel Sportsbook. Our betting bot detected a significant edge of 2.9% for this particular wager.
