Free NBA Picks For Friday March 18, 2022

Grizzlies vs. Hawks, 7:30PM ET

Fast pace is the name of the game tonight with two of the league's top-10 offenses going head-to-head in the A. Both the Grizz and the Hawks are scoring at an elite level over their last five games apiece, combining for over 240 points per game while giving up 230. Neither team will mind this one turning into a shootout - infact, that is exactly what they want.

BET: Total points OVER 235.5 (-110)

Trail Blazers vs. Nets, 7:30PM ET

Barring a shock win over the Wizards last week, the Blazers have been a below NBA-quality team. They face a stern test on the road against the Nets, even without Kyrie Irving who will be watching on from the crowd in Brooklyn. The Eastern Conference heavyweights have still got what it takes to blow the Blazers out of the water.

BET: Nets -14 (-110)

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

Pelicans vs. Spurs, 8:30PM ET

The Pels and Spurs have been simply awful on defense as of late, both giving up more than 120 points per game to their opponents over their last five and we're expecting more of the same tonight. New Orleans have definitely changed things up since bringing on CJ McCollum at the trade deadline with five of their last six games all going over. The total might be large here, but it's one that is achievable. 

BET: Total points OVER 237 (-110)

🏀 Projected Pelicans vs. Spurs box score
🔥 Betting Preview: Pelicans vs. Spurs
