@KeepTheJuice21 Friday NBA Best Bets - 2/4

Fresh off two more winning picks on college basketball on Thursday night, Chuck has two best bets for Friday NBA slate.

He has cashed TEN straight CBB bets... He couldn't be hotter right now!

The Hornets at their best are a team that can compete with the best. LaMelo is a legit star and is capable of carrying a team. But the problem is how often we see their best. This team can get very cold and have trouble bouncing back when they get hit. In addition, they can play down to worse teams.

The Cavs are the exact worst matchup for that kind of team, a bit underrated in the league still (although they are starting to get some respect) and a solid fundamental team. There’s always a chance that the star Hornets show up and the offensive gets hot, but there’s just as good a chance the Cavs keep control the whole game. In those even odds, I’ll take the points that are given to me.

Is anyone else confused about Rudy Gobert? The Jazz have continuously said his calf injury isn’t anything to worry about but here we are two weeks later and he’s about to miss his 6th game in a row. In any case, this stretch should be the ultimate justification for Gobert’s supermax contract because the team is simply not the same without him. In those 5 games the Jazz only managed 1 win against the Jokic-less Nuggets.

The Nets have had their share of struggles recently as well, but I trust them much more than the Jazz right now. Again take the points for the road team.

For anyone wondering, a parlay of both these underdogs also pays out +650. Just throwing that out there.
