Sports Illustrated's Peter Dewey breaks down his favorite bets for the NBA action on Sunday, Jan. 19, including a pick for Tyrese Maxey.
Sunday’s NBA action kicks off at 3 p.m. EST with the San Antonio Spurs and Victor Wembanyama taking on Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat, and it’s one of my favorite games to bet on a loaded slate for Jan. 19.
He now gets to face his former team – Orlando – on Sunday, and I think he could be in line for a big showing. Gordon has attempted eight shots per game despite playing less than half the game in all three matchups since he returned, and he’s only had a handful of games where he’s failed to reach 10 points this season.
I think this game could be a slower-paced matchup, and Castle has benefitted from back-to-back games against Memphis – the team that plays at the fastest tempo in the NBA. Maxey is averaging 26.1 points per game this season, and he’s been red hot as of late, clearing this prop in each of his last six games. Over his last 16 games, Maxey is averaging 28.1 points per game while shooting 43.5 percent from the field and 35.9 percent from 3. While he hasn’t been as efficient as last season, the shots are still there for the All-Star guard – especially with Joel Embiid out of the lineup.San Antonio Spurs +3.5 vs. Miami Heat – 0.
In addition to that, the Spurs have been solid as road dogs . Miami is just 8-10 against the spread overall at home, and it has posted an average scoring margin of just +1.6 points in those games.Bonus PlayThis matchup could be one to get locked in early – if you’re willing to run some major risk when it comes to the injury reports.
