This is the night of the unfamiliar in the NBA, and we call it that because there are 10 games on the NBA schedule, six of which are of the East team vs. West team variety.

In the NBA, teams from opposing conferences play each other only twice each season. These games are often most important to the fans in the home team city who are getting their one and only chance all year to see a special visiting player.

Among NBA coaches and players, these types of games are merely 1-of-82 during their regular season slog. The challenge is often to summon the extra effort needed to get through certain episodes of that slog.

The best coaches often talk about how challenging that can be in a league that has 20 of the 30 teams qualify for the playoffs or the play-in. That devalues the regular season to a huge degree, so much so that the NBA is finally cracking down on load management, even issuing a fine to the Brooklyn Nets for sitting four healthy starters for no apparent reason last week in a surrender loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.

All NBA fans should hope the fine levied upon Brooklyn will be a deterrent to other teams resting players unexpectedly, which hampers sharp gamblers whose well-researched picks are blown up 10 minutes before tipoff when they learn that someone they were relying upon is taking a night off. We try to avoid that here at the Betway blog by going with players with a Wilt Chamberlain mindset (Chamberlain once averaged 48.6 minutes per game because he played every minute of every game, including overtimes, in the 1961-62 season).

Kings at Hornets Preview

These two teams played in northern California on January 4, with the Hornets pulling off an upset by scoring the final 10 points of a 111-104 victory, just their eighth of the season, as Terry Rozier led the way with 14 of his 34 points in the final frame. So the memory of that loss will be fresh for the Kings and should provide some motivation as they seek to maintain their position among the top six teams in the West, thus avoiding the play-in round.

Kings vs. Hornets Injury Report

Charlotte will be shorthanded, missing point guard LaMelo Ball (out for the season), small forward Gordon Hayward (calf strain) and center Mark Williams (lower back strain). Also, P.J. Washington is doubtful with a right foot sprain and Cody Martin is questionable with a strained groin. The Kings have not reported any injuries.

Keegan Murray 20+ points

Murray is what is known as a “leaky faucet” type of player because he runs hot and cold. The fourth overall pick of the 2022 draft dropped 32 on the Detroit Pistons last night, and he had a stretch last month where he scored 47 against Utah and then came out the next night and had 25 against Washington. Between then and now, he has three single-digit scoring games, so his odds are a reflection of his hot/cold offensive outputs. We like him to have a nice back-to-back, especially with the Hornets using bench players to defend him.

The Pick: Keegan Murray to score at least 20 points (+275)

Spurs vs Pistons Preview

As an antidote to the two top teams meeting in Boston (Celtics-Timberwolves), we have the worst of the West, the 5-30 Spurs, visiting the horrific 3-34 Detroit Pistons. The rules state that one of these teams has to win, and they will go at it again on the final day of the season in April before Victor Wembanyama turns his attention to Olympic qualifying for Team France.

Spurs vs. Pistons Injury Report

San Antonio center Zach Collins is out with an ankle sprain. The Pistons are not reporting any injuries.

Victor Wembanyama 3+ blocks 

The French phenom has been blocking shots at an extraordinary rate, getting 5 last game against Cleveland, 5 the previous game against Milwaukee and 4 before that against Memphis. He has had at least three blocks in seven of his last eight games and he should be stoked with the opportunity for a rare win as the Spurs play the only team with a worse record. A victory would tie them with Washington with six W’s.

The Pick: Victor Wembanyama to block at least three shots (+150)

Wizards vs. Pacers Preview

Life without Tyrese Haliburton begins for the Pacers, who lost their All-Star when he lost his balance and did the splits against Boston, leaving him with strained hamstring. So the NBA’s highest scoring team is losing its main engine, and somebody is going to need to step up and replace his scoring and passing.

Wizards vs. Pacers Injury Report

Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton is out with a strained hamstring. The Wizards are not reporting any injuries.

Bennedict Mathurin Double-Double

We like the odds on the Pacers getting those contributions from Mathurin, who plays heavy minutes off the bench and may move from the 20s to the 30s in terms of minutes played as coach Rick Carlisle looks for a multi-faceted player to give his Pacers what Haliburton had been providing so deftly all season. Mathurin has only one double-double all season, getting 13 rebounds to go along with 25 points in the first game of this month against Milwaukee.

The Pick: Bennedict Mathurin to record a double-double (+1100)Thunder vs Heat Player Prop Bets tonight: Wednesday, January, 10, 2024

Thunder vs Heat Preview

This is the first game Miami will be playing since news broke that coach Erik Spoelstra received an eight-year contract extension, which is unheard of in an NBA city aside from San Antonio, where Gregg Popovich is more or less coach for life. The Heat have been home since Saturday after they completed a five-game road trip, and they will not get back on an airplane until Sunday when they travel to Brooklyn. Yes, we should all be so fortunate and have eight days of sunshine in mid-January. Oklahoma City is making the final stop of a four-game road trip that has included disappointing losses to the Nets and Hawks.

Thunder vs Heat Injury Report

Miami guard Jimmy Butler is out with a sprained toe, and Kyle Lowry is doubtful with a sprained left hand.

Jalen Williams to double-double (+1300)

Williams has not been as good in his second season as he was in is rookie campaign, but he is coming off a double-double of 21 points and 10 assists against Washington. Three more rebounds would have given him a triple-double. I In order for this young team to take the next step forward they will have to get more consistent production from Shai Gilgeous Alexander’s supporting cast.

The Pick: Jalen Williams to double-double (+1100).
