We’ve reached the one-quarter mark of the NBA season. That means we can start to see a clear picture of which teams are fooling themselves as contenders, and which teams can make a run at the NBA Finals.

For our Tuesday picks we have two games and two player props. Download the Fliff social betting app today and find the best odds for pro basketball, hockey, the NFL, and other sporting events.
The Magic, at 17-9 are one of the best teams in the NBA. Yet, Fluff oddsmakers are gifting them with 7.5 points in this matchup against the Bucks in Suds City. That’s enough for us to jump at the point spread wager, with odds of -112. That means we’ll need to bet $112 to win $100, while getting 7.5 points.
Since starting the season at 3-6, the Magic are 14-3, and they’ve steadied their offense. While Orlando struggled on the road in October and early November, they are 6-3 away from home since Nov. 6. That’s a great sign that Jamahl Mosley has his players confident in his system.
The Bucks may be earning the nickname “Team Streak,” thanks to the down-and-up-and-down again nature of their season thus far. Milwaukee ran off onto a seven-game winning streak in November, but they’ve dropped two of their last three. However, the Bucks are 4-0 in the In-Season Tournament, and Tuesday’s game will be another in that series. But, we don’t need a win, just a close enough game for the Magic to make up that spread of 7.5 points from Fliff.
Here we’ll go with the moneyline, banking on the Mavericks winning outright. Our $100 wager would win $255, including our stake.
Why will the Mavs defeat the Thunder on the road? Two words: Luka Dončić. In his last four games, the Dallas star is averaging 33.5 points, with 18 three-pointers and 10.5 rebounds per game. In a sense, Dončić is a one-man wrecking crew, raining threes, driving the lane, and throwing his wide body into the paint for avery and any loose ball. The Mavs seem intent on returning to the NBA Finals, and if they do it will be Dončić who will lead the way.
These player prop bets for Tuesday NBA action are based on odds from the Fliff sports betting app:

We like the Magic getting 7.5 points against the Bucks (-112) for a game pick. We prefer the Brook Lopez player prop (10+ points at +140 with Milwaukee to win). Check the Fliff sports betting mobile application to find the odds and betting opportunities that suit your betting strategy.
