Phoenix Suns vs New Orleans Pelicans
Having lost just twice in 23 games since the start of 2022, an impressive run of NBA results has seen the Suns emerge as favourites to clinch the Western Conference. They have lost just five times on home soil in 31 games as they prepare to host the Pelicans in Phoenix this weekend. Devin Booker has led the scoring for his team in five of their last six games, with the sharpshooter looking to win his first ring.
Prediction: Phoenix Suns
LA Lakers vs LA Clippers
Neither of these sides have reached their peaks this season due to some bad luck with injuries. The Clippers have got the slightly better NBA results this season, and have won the last two meetings in this local derby, but it’s difficult to look past the Lakers’ star power. Lebron James was on hand in the All-Star game to sink the game-winning basket, and you just wouldn’t put it past him to shine in a Lakers win.
Prediction: LA Lakers
Detroit Pistons vs Boston Celtics
The Pistons’ win over Boston last time out ended a run of eight consecutive losses. Despite their recent victory over this week’s opponent, lightning doesn’t strike twice. The defeat was the Celtics first after a run of nine winning NBA results, which has seen them climb into the automatic play-off places. The visitors will be out for revenge and should be too strong this time around.
Prediction: Boston Celtics
Milwaukee Bucks vs Brooklyn Nets
A run of poor NBA results prompted some action in the Brooklyn camp, which saw them trade one of their leading point scorers James Harden to the 76ers, with Ben Simmons arriving from Philadelphia. The trade arguably strengthened Brooklyn, but they will have a lot to do to beat the Bucks on the road. Milwaukee have won both the meetings between these two this season by a big margin, and with Giannis putting up 30 points in the All-Star game, the Bucks will be favourites for the upcoming match.
Prediction: Milwaukee Bucks
Denver Nuggets vs Sacramento Kings
The Nuggets are in a strong position to qualify automatically for the play-offs, but the job isn’t quite done yet. They will be favourites this weekend as they host a Sacramento team with the joint fewest wins on the road this campaign. Nikola Jokic has been single-handedly dominating in Denver this season, and he has top-scored in their last four games. With the Kings having won just once in their last 16 away games, we find it unlikely they’ll be able to overcome this strong Nuggets outfit.
Prediction: Denver Nuggets
