Monday, January 31
New Orleans Pelicans @ Cleveland Cavaliers – 7:00pm ET
Los Angeles Clippers @ Indiana Pacers – 7:00pm ET
Memphis Grizzlies @ Philadelphia 76ers – 7:00pm ET
Miami Heat @ Boston Celtics – 7:30pm ET
Sacramento Kings @ New York Knicks – 7:30pm ET
Toronto Raptors @ Atlanta Hawks – 7:30pm ET
Golden State Warriors @ Houston Rockets – 8:00pm ET
Portland Trail Blazers @ Oklahoma City Thunder – 8:00pm ET
New Orleans Pelicans @ Cleveland Cavaliers – 7:00pm ET
New Orleans Pelicans come into this clash with Cleveland Cavaliers on the back of a three-game losing streak but they will believe that they can end that run here. The Cavs will take some beating have won their last four on home court but the Pelicans hold a brilliant head-to-head winning streak against the hosts with seven successive victories in recent matchups so they are tentatively fancied to improve on that record.
Prediction: New Orleans Pelicans to win
Toronto Raptors @ Atlanta Hawks – 7:30pm ET
Atlanta Hawks continued their impressive form by making it seven straight wins in the NBA by overcoming Los Angeles Lakers last time out. They will look to extend that winning streak as they host an inconsistent Toronto Raptors outfit but with six of Atlanta’s recent victories coming on home court as well as winning their past three matchups against Toronto, the Hawks have to be favoured in this one.
Prediction: Atlanta Hawks to win
Golden State Warriors @ Houston Rockets – 8:00pm ET
Houston Rockets suffered a third straight loss in their most recent contest against Portland Trail Blazers and they now face the daunting task of trying to topple Golden State Warriors. The road team come into this having won five straight and having also won the past five games between the two teams, it would be a shock if the Rockets were to end either of those winning streaks for the Warriors in this contest.
Prediction: Golden State Warriors to win
