For April 29, 2024, we will look at the clash between the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics from Miami. The Heat are without their best player, Jimmy Butler, in this series. The Celtics lead the series 2-1. Expect the Heat to fight back, and give their best to tie the series.

Heat vs Celtics Quick Bet to Make

Nikola Jovic is our guy for tonight. We are going with him getting at least 6 rebounds. With Jimmy Butler being out, Nikola Jovic’s minutes have increased. In those four games, Jovic grabbed at least 6 rebounds every single time. In the last game, Jovic grabbed 8 rebounds easily.

That being said, Jovic getting at least 6 rebounds is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Nikola Jovic over 5.5 rebounds @-106 @FanDuel

New Orleans Pelicans vs Oklahoma City Thunder Best Bet

8:30PM
New Orleans, LA
Smoothie King Center

For April 29, 2024, we will look at the clash between the New Orleans Pelicans vs Oklahoma City Thunder from New Orleans. The Oklahoma City Thunder lead the series 3-0. Expect a high-intensity game. The Pelicans need this win to stay alive in this series.

Current Form

The Pelicans have lost four of their last five games. Without Zion Williamson, they look like a different team. In the last two games against the Thunder, the Pelicans did not stand a chance. They got blown-out in both games by more than 20 points. Their main attacking option, Brandon Ingram, is struggling a lot. The first game was the only game where the Pelicans were close to winning the game. However, in that game, the Thunder were just terrible, and that still was not enough for them to close out the game.

The Thunder have won their last 8 games. In the regular season, the Thunder managed to stay at the 1st seed, above the Nuggets and Timberwolves. As we already mentioned before, the Thunder only struggled in the first game. We believe that the main reason was that they are so young and inexperienced, so they did not do well under pressure. However, at this moment, they look fearless. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander plays like an MVP. This young team has great team chemistry, and it is just fun to watch them play.

Pelicans vs Thunder Best Bet to Make

According to the bookies, the Thunder are just the slight favorites tonight. However, we believe that they should have been bigger favorites tonight. They are just a better team than the Pelicans, and they have dominated throughout the whole series.

That being said, the Thunder winning tonight is a value bet.

Value bet/ the best odds: Oklahoma City Thunder winning @1.53 @bet365
