Free NBA Picks For Friday April 8, 2022

Bucks vs. Pistons, 7:00PM ET

The Bucks aren't generally a team to mess around with acts like resting players and that should continue tonight.

Milwaukee went hard to beat Boston last night, showcasing their desire to keep winning as they go for the second seed, with no fear of a Brooklyn side that has many worried.

The Pistons have been on an unbelievable run against the spread of late (17-1-2 in their last 20 as underdogs), but the Bucks' big three April are a different beast.

BET: Bucks -6 (-110)

🏀 Projected Bucks vs. Pistons box score

Cavaliers vs. Nets, 7:30PM ET

A big-time 7 vs. 8 clash here, with the Cavs and Nets looking to keep themselves locked into one of the two double chance play-in spots in the East.

Whilst the Cavs haven't been themselves since Allen (and others) got injured, they should welcome back Evan Mobley tonight which will help greatly.

Cleveland needs this win more than Brooklyn does and their dog fighting attitude get us a cover her by at least pushing this one to the final buzzer.

BET: Cavaliers +7.5 (-110)

🏀 Projected Cavs vs. Nets box score
🔥 Betting Preview: Cavs vs. Nets

Suns vs. Jazz, 9:30PM ET

The Suns are underdogs? Yes, the Jazz have more to play for (the Nuggets are hot on their tail) but the Suns are better. And well-rested.

After sitting every starter but Mikal Bridges last time out (he's on track for 82 games), this Phoenix side will be itching to get back out there and secure another win or two before the playoffs.

The Jazz won the most recent meeting between the two back in February, but before that the Suns had won six straight clashes dating back to the start of 2020.

BET: Suns moneyline (+120)
