【free stake cash】Best NBA Bets for Monday, March 17th: Expert Picks & Predictions

Bracket study has begun, but why not take a break from college hoops and try to boost your bankroll with a few NBA investments? You’ve got options, and we’ve got our Best NBA Bets.

There are 10 games on the schedule, starting with the Miami Heat taking on the New York Knicks at 7:30 p.m. EDT and wrapping up with the San Antonio Spurs paying the Los Angeles Lakers a visit in Los Angeles (10:30 p.m. EDT).

Miami Heat (+250) vs. New York Knicks (-7)

The struggle has been way too real for the Miami Heat (29-38, 13-21) in recent weeks. After dropping Saturday’s game to the Grizzlies in Memphis, 125-91, they’ve lost seven in a row. Can we really expect them to stop the bleeding against a solid Knicks team in New York?

Probably not.

However, Miami might be catching the Knicks at the right time. They are still missing Jalen Brunson, and they’ve lost four of their last six games, the most recent being a 97-94 loss to the Golden State Warriors.

I don’t think the Heat will win this game, but they’ve put up a good fight during their losing streak. Four losses were by five points or less. However, the last three losses were blowouts. They’ll put up a good fight in this one, too.

Our pick: Heat +7
