Finishing in the best possible position in the playoff push is the main objective for every NBA franchise as the end of the 2024 season approaches. With so many big games in prospect, there is plenty of excitement building amongst both punters and NBA betting apps.

8th March – Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis
Minnesota Timberwolves to win the match @ 1.85 (GetSetBet)
Two sides chasing post-season glory in their respective conferences face off, as the Indiana Pacers welcome the Minnesota Timberwolves. For the Pacers, cracking the top 8 would be a super effort in the East this season and they are dark horses to go deep this season with many NBA betting apps. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Timberwolves are flying in the West, and they will be desperate to keep the cogs turning, as they chase NBA Championship glory. This should be a very good one, with the Timberwolves potentially having a little too much quality for the Pacers.
8th March – Little Ceasars Arena, Detroit
Brooklyn Nets to win the match @ 1.75 (PlayUp)
It has broadly been a season to forget for both the Detroit Pistons and the Brooklyn Nets and both sides will be eager to pick up a confidence boosting win here. The Pistons went huge spells of the campaign without a triumph but now have 9 to their name and do have a touch more swagger about them currently. The Brooklyn Nets meanwhile have been in desperate form too, with a poor game winning percentage and they look to have blown their playoff hopes. That said, the Nets are a good side, and they could pinch the points on the road here.
8th March – American Airlines Center, Dallas
Dallas Mavericks to win the match @ 1.91 (BlueBet)
Another pair of sides on the playoff charge in their respective divisions do battle here, as the Dallas Mavericks take on the Miami Heat. For the Mavericks, being sat in 8th place in the West is not what the envisioned this season and their profile continues to sky rocket with both domestic and international betting sites. Meanwhile, the Miami Heat are doing well in the East and they will want to keep in the hunt for the playoffs until the end of the campaign. The Dallas Mavericks need a win here and they should grab one in front of their home fans.
