Best NBA Bets Today
Indiana Pacers vs. Charlotte Hornets, 7:00PM ET
The Over has hit in two of the last three games that the Pacers have played and it has also done the same in two of the last three that the Hornets have played. Also, with LaMelo Ball back in the lineup for Charlotte, you can expect a lot more scoring and way less defense out of the Hornets.
This is just a game that is destined to be extremely high scoring. Indiana plays at the third-fastest pace in the entire league, while Charlotte will likely ramp things up in that regard with Ball back. The Pacers are also seventh in the league in offensive rating, but they're all the way down at 27th in the NBA in defensive rating. That combination is an Over bettor's dream right there.
Look for the young guards in this game to do a lot in terms of helping this turn into a shootout.

Houston Rockets vs. Dallas Mavericks, 8:30PM ET
The Rockets have been one of the least impressive teams in the NBA this season, but they're young and extremely talented. That should be enough to help them go into Dallas and avoid losing by double digits against a Mavericks team that is coming off of an emotional win over the Clippers late last night.
Dallas built a 25-point lead against Los Angeles on Tuesday, but the Clippers came roaring back and forced the Mavericks to earn it in the final minutes. Jason Kidd's team needed to exert a lot of energy in that one, which is more or less a rivalry game at this point. It won't be easy for Luka Doncic and Co. to now get up for a meeting with one of the league's worst teams.
Look for the Rockets to push the pace in this one and try and get some easy buckets against what could be a lethargic Mavs squad. Houston is 10th in the NBA in pace of play, while Dallas is last.

Golden State Warriors vs. Phoenix Suns, 10:00PM ET
The Suns earned a 134-105 win over the Warriors back on October 25, but that was a close game until Phoenix got hot and took advantage of some serious momentum swings. But the Warriors are going to be coming into this game with a lot of intensity, as there's something about this matchup that brings out the emotions from both teams. Even Klay Thompson was ejected the last time these two faced one another.
This is, however, a spot in which the Suns will also be eager to go out and prove themselves. And having home-court advantage in this game can't be understated. Phoenix has been hit hard with the injury bug early in the year, but the team is hoping to get Chris Paul back on Wednesday. If the Suns do get the Point God's return, they'd have a lot of energy for this one. Phoenix is coming back from a four-game road trip in which the team went just 1-3, so it knows the importance of getting back in the win column at home.
The Suns also happen to be 35-13 against the spread as a home favorite of six or fewer points under head coach Monty Williams.
