Tuesday, December 21st
Indiana Pacers @ Miami Heat – 7:30pm ET
Detroit Pistons @ New York Knicks – 7:30pm ET
Portland Trail Blazers @ New Orleans Pelicans – 8:00pm ET
Minnesota Timberwolves @ Dallas Mavericks – 8:30pm ET
Phoenix Suns @ Los Angeles Lakers – 10:00pm ET
Minnesota Timberwolves @ Dallas Mavericks – 8:30pm ET
Minnesota Timberwolves got the better of Dallas Mavericks to make it four straight wins and they will believe they can record another victory as they head on the road to face the same team. The Mavericks have lost their last two while they have won just one of their last seven on home court and with the Timberwolves looking so impressive of late, they are favoured to prevail once again and extend their winning streak to five.
Prediction: Minnesota Timberwolves to win
Phoenix Suns @ Los Angeles Lakers – 10:00pm ET
Los Angeles Lakers suffered a second defeat in succession as they went down to Chicago Bulls last time out and they now face another difficult challenge as they host Phoenix Suns. The road team have lost just of their last 25 games and having already defeated the Lakers earlier in the season, it would be a surprise if the Suns were unable to record another success in this matchup.
Prediction: Phoenix Suns to win
