Streaking Bucks return home as slim underdogs against Raptors in NBA

Toronto (25/1 to win the NBA Championship) have also dominated the Bucks in recent meetings, claiming SU wins in their past four visits to Milwaukee, including a lopsided 111-90 victory on Boxing Day, and are 9-1 SU in their previous 10 clashes overall.

Los Angeles Clippers @ San Antonio Spurs (-8.5)

In Western Conference action on Tuesday night, Los Angeles Clippers will be looking to end Spurs’ SU winning streak on home court when they visit San Antonio as 8.5-point underdogs.

Clips have cooled off since going on an 7-1 SU tear in late January, hobbling to a 7-6 SU record in 13 games since, including losses to Golden State, Atlanta, Oklahoma City and Cleveland. But, with 42 wins from the season, they remain entrenched in fourth place in the Western Conference standings, just two games back of Thunder.

With just four SU losses since Christmas Day, Spurs (7/2 to win the NBA Championship) have already clinched top spot in the Southwest Division, leading Memphis by a massive 17.5 games, and have kept pace with Warriors, whom they trail by just four games in the Western Conference standings.

Tuesday night marks the third and final meeting of the regular season between these two clubs.

Both squads picked up SU home wins earlier this season, but it is Clippers that have held the upper hand in recent head-to-head matchups, going 7-4 SU over their past 11, including a first-round victory over Spurs in last season’s NBA playoffs, bouncing San Antonio in seven games.

Boston Celtics @ Indiana Pacers (-2.5)

In other NBA betting action at Coral on Tuesday, Indiana Pacers kick off a crucial five-game homestand as 2.5-point favourites against the visiting Boston Celtics.

Pacers have won four of six to maintain their grasp on seventh place in the East, but are a mediocre 4-4 SU, 3-5 ATS, in their past eight at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. However, Celtics have struggled on the road of late, claiming victory in just one of their past five.

Brooklyn Nets will look to end a four-game SU losing streak when they host the last-place Philadelphia 76ers as 7.5-point chalk, while Sacramento Kings visit Los Angeles Lakers as 3.5-point road favourites in a battle of Western Conference also-rans.
