NBA Predictions & Preview For Friday, December 5th

December keeps moving along swimmingly, with the bankroll still looking nice and fat. But it needs to get nicer and fatter. Here are your NBA predictions and preview for Friday, December 5th.
NBA Predictions & Preview For Friday, December 5th
San Antonio Spurs vs Cleveland Cavaliers
Start Time – 7:30 PM EST
Victor? We don’t need no stinkin’ Victors, so say the San Antonio Spurs. Not actually – any team would take Victor Wembanyama on their roster. However, the Spurs are cruising without their superstar, going 7-2 with him in street clothes this season.
So I like the Spurs on the road against a struggling and banged-up Cleveland Cavaliers squad. My line is Cleveland -1, so San Antonio is the side with the value.
Best Bet: San Antonio +5.5 (-114)
Los Angeles Clippers vs Memphis Grizzlies
Start Time – 8:00 PM EST
Heading into this NBA season, no one would have predicted that at this point in the schedule, the Los Angeles Clippers and the Memphis Grizzlies would have a combined win-loss record of 15-29. This season has been a trainwreck for both teams.
So, which bad team are we getting in on tomorrow? That would be the Grizzlies, playing at home. The Clippers are not a good basketball team, yet they continually get favorable spreads at the books. My line is Memphis -4, so getting them plus points (for plus money) is a nice surprise.
Best Bet: Memphis +1.5 (+102)
2025/6 Overall Record: 46-40 (53%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $181.21
Return on Investment: 2%
