NBA Expert Tips and Best Bets |Oct 30th – Nov 2nd 2023

The 2024 NBA season is settling into a fascinating rhythm, with all of the biggest teams looking to gain some early momentum. 

With the conjecture and speculation over, all of the biggest NBA online betting sites are making moves to provide punters with some enticing NBA betting opportunities. 

High-flying Phoenix Suns will be looking to keep up their strong start against the San Antonio Spurs, whilst defending champions the Denver Nuggets travel to Minnesota to take on the Timberwolves and the Dallas Mavericks and Chicago Bulls lock horns.  

1st November – Footprint Arena, Phoenix

Over 221.5 points in the match @ 1.95 (PlayUp).

The rise of the Phoenix Suns in the NBA has been one of the most endearing sporting tales in recent times. Often many people’s ‘second team’, the Suns were never seen as a serious threat in the NBA – that was until their superb playoff run in 2023. 

Currently, the Suns have a serious target on their back, with some excellent players on their roster and they welcome a San Antonio Spurs side that are always dangerous on their day. 

Victor Wembanyama is the key cog for the Spurs, with the Frenchman still finding his feet in the NBA and his inconsistency is mirrored by that of the Spurs. 

Whilst the Phoenix Suns are the strong favourites for this one, it is the potentially open nature of the game that could give punters a way in.

2nd November – Target Center, Minneapolis

Point Spread: Denver Nuggets - 5.5 @ 2.05 (GetSetBet)

Defending NBA champions Denver Nuggets have enjoyed a superb start to the 2024 season, and they take their unbeaten record to the Minnesota Timberwolves next. 


For the Nuggets, putting in a strong defence of their title will be key this term and their excellent early season performances have been noted by many NBA betting sites. 


Hosts Timberwolves are a side packed with potential but they are as yet, somewhat of a rough diamond and any performance could be on the horizon.

The Target Center is a tough place to go and the Denver Nuggets will need to be at the peak of their powers in this one but they look to be full of confidence and they should prevail with a couple of points to play with too. 

2nd November – American Airlines Centre, Dallas

Dallas Mavericks to win the match @ 1.70 (BlueBet). 

The fascinating experiment at the Dallas Mavericks appears to be working in 2024, with the partnership between Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving catching the eye with many domestic and international betting sites. 

For the Mavericks, fulfilling potential has always been the key objective and after another season of playoff disappoint in 2023, they have all the hallmarks of a side ready to kick on in 2024. 

They welcome a Chicago Bulls side that still look to be in a state of flux, despite some strong off-season recruitment but they will need to be wary of the attacking prowess the Bulls possess on their roster. 

However, the Mavericks are a very good outfit in front of their home fans and they could pick up an important home win in this one.
