We’ve got seven games on the NBA slate to welcome us into the weekend. And I think I’ve found a couple of spots to make it a profitable Friday for us. Here is your NBA prediction and preview for Friday, January 31st.

Boston Celtics vs New Orleans Pelicans 3ef17

Start Time – 8:00 PM EST

The Boston Celtics are really struggling to put together any momentum, losing as often as they have won recently. But when they do win, they smoke the weaker teams they face. The New Orleans Pelicans would be one of those weaker teams.

So I have no worries about Boston covering a big spread for us tomorrow night in The Big Easy. Boston -13.5 I would be comfortable playing.

Best Bet: Boston -10.5 (-112)

Phoenix Suns vs Golden State Warriors 5a6y2l

Start Time – 10:00 PM EST

I hate to do this to my beloved Phoenix Suns, but I’m fading them hard tomorrow night as they face the Golden State Warriors in the Chase Center. The Warriors have been turning things around of late, winning two straight and three of their last four.

And while Golden State is only 14-12 at home, the Suns are an abysmal 9-13 on the road this season. Golden State -7 is my line for this game, so there’s plenty of value on the Warriors here.

Best Bet: Golden State -1 (-105)

Overall Record: 92-69 (57%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1,475.60
Return on Investment: 9%
