Best NBA Bets Today

Tyler Herro over 23.5 points (-110) at Boston

FanDuel, 3:52 PM CT

Alex Barutha: Boston is a tough opponent, but they're banged up and will definitely be down Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis and Al Horford. Meanwhile, the Heat are most notably down Jimmy Butler, which should force the ball into Herro's hands more. During a five-game stretch earlier in the season that Butler missed, Herro averaged 27.6 points in 37.6 minutes.

Dyson Daniels over 2.5 steals (+123) vs. Pelicans

BetRivers, 4:17 PM CT

Alex Barutha: New Orleans has been one of the most mistake-prone teams in the NBA. Over the past 10 games, they've allowed the third-most opponent steals per 48 minutes (10.3). Daniels has been vacuuming up steals all year, averaging 3.0 per game. It's surprising to get plus-money on him to reach his average in this situation.

Lakers-Timberwolves U219.5

DraftKings Sportsbook, 4:41 PM CT

Nick Whalen: The Lakers are dealing with a slew of role-player injuries tonight and have struggled offensively of late, ranking 26th in offensive rating over their last five games. Meanwhile, Minnesota hasn't been any better (27th in ORTG) on that end, though they are starting to round into form defensively. Over that five-game span, Minnesota ranks dead-last in pace, while the Lakers rank 26th.
