NBA 22/23 Weekly Preview 3 – Betting odds and Free Picks

Last Updated on November 6, 2022 7:08 pm by Gambyl Nation Editorial Team

The emotions of the start of the 2022-23 NBA season continue, with many surprises of course, but with some teams that have managed to ratify their label of favorite since they have been able to demonstrate that their level of play remains intact and that they do not think about anything other than being the champions of the league.

We are referring mainly to Milwaukee Bucks, who have started the season with a spectacular pace with a 5-0 record, being the only team in the league that remains undefeated so far.


Other teams that have also been playing extremely high-level basketball are the surprise of this start, Cleveland Cavaliers (4-1), Portland Trail Blazers (4-1), Phoenix Suns (4-1), and Utah Jazz (5-2).

Another point to highlight is the Sixers’ awakening, since, after a slow start, they have managed to win their last 2 games and face this week with the firm conviction of extending the string of victories and climbing up the Eastern Conference.

The Nuggets, Timberwolves, and Thunder are surprising in the West, with their last games played with victories and making it clear that they want to fight to be at the top of the table.

On the other side of the coin we have, first of all, the Los Angeles Lakers, LeBron’s team still does not know what a victory is this season and, with a record of 0-5, they are in the ditch of the Western Conference.

The Clippers lost their third consecutive game and dropped to the #11 spot in the standings, the Brooklyn Nets continue from controversy to controversy and, above all, far from victories. As well as Miami Heat has not achieved the formula that led them to be such a competitive team in the previous season.

Now then, we will have the best games that we can enjoy in this week 3 of the NBA with our free picks

NBA 22/23 Weekly Preview 3 – Washington Wizards vs. Philadelphia 76ers

When:

This Monday, October 31, 2022, 07:00 pm ET, at the Capital One Arena

Moneyline odds:

Washington Wizards +142

Philadelphia 76ers -175

Where Can I Watch it?

ESPN and NBA League Pass

The Wizards have had a very good start to the season, even, better than they expected, as, they have a record of 3 wins and 2 losses and, the best thing for them is that in every game they have shown a great level of play.

For now, the Wizards are relying on the offense of Bradley Beal and Kyle Kuzma who are averaging 22.6 and 20.4 points per game. As well as the great defense of Delon Wright and Kristaps Porzingis.

Before this game, the Wizards will have a tough test today, Sunday, October 30, against the Celtics at TD Garden.

On the other hand, we have the Philadelphia 76ers, a team that over the years has become a consistent favorite to take the championship, but everything falls apart for them in the postseason and, hopefully, this season will different.

The Sixers have not had the expected start to the season, with 3 wins and 4 losses they are in the middle of the Eastern Conference, and they need to get back to winning ways as soon as possible.

Joel Embiid’s 27.6 points per game and James Harden’s great ball handling have not helped them so far.

Washington Wizards vs. Philadelphia 76ers Betting Pick: Philadelphia 76ers

NBA 22/23 Weekly Preview 3 – Phoenix Suns vs. Minnesota Timberwolves

When:

Tuesday, November 01 at 10:00 pm ET at the Footprint Center

Moneyline odds:

Suns -172

Timberwolves +140

Where Can I Watch it?

ESPN and NBA League Pass

The Suns have gotten us used to the fact that whenever we watch them, we always imagine the team lifting the championship trophy, and season after season, they show that their level of play is getting better and better. And this 2022-23 start for the Suns has been no exception.

With a 4-1 start, the Suns are only 0.5 games out of first place in the Western Conference and, for them, it is no surprise to be fighting for the top of this conference. Devin Booker, Deandre Ayton, Chris Paul, and Mikail Bridges have started this season at their best, and we expect this to be the Suns’ year.

On the other hand, the Timberwolves have started the season with a very high level of play. We dare to say that much higher than they would have dreamed, since, with a 4-2 record, they are only 1 game away from first place in the West, so we could have unexpected leaders in this start.

The Wolves are leaning heavily on their two-star players, Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert, who led the team in points per game and rebounds, respectively, which has helped Minnesota to have a good winning streak.

Phoenix Suns vs. Minnesota Timberwolves Betting Pick: Phoenix Suns

NBA 22/23 Weekly Preview 3 – Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Boston Celtics

When:

Wednesday, November 02 at 07:30 pm ET at the Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse

Moneyline odds:

Cleveland Cavaliers +108

Boston Celtics -131

Where Can I Watch it?

ESPN and NBA League Pass

This game will mark the rematch between these two teams after the Cavaliers defeated the Celtics at TD Garden last Friday, October 28th with a score of 132-123. Now it’s up to the Celtics if they can return the visiting courtesy.

The Cavaliers look like that powerhouse team that won it all when they had LeBron in their ranks, but, now their new star is Donovan Mitchel, who is averaging 31 points per game, in an average of 39.2 minutes played, which has carried them in this season opener.

While the Celtics know they can’t afford to lose any more games this early in the season, they must take advantage of the fact that opposing players are not at their optimal level of play. Right now, the Celtics have a 3-2 record, but before the start of the third week of the championship, they must host the Wizards at TD Garden with the mission of getting back to winning ways and, once again, fighting for the top of the East.

Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Boston Celtics Betting Pick: Cleveland Cavaliers

NBA 22/23 Weekly Preview 3 – Milwaukee vs. Timberwolves

When

Friday, November 4th, 10PM ET

Moneyline odds

Milwaukee Bucks -153

Timberwolves +125 

Where can I watch it?

NBA League Pass

Milwaukee Bucks have a lot of favoritism in this confrontation – and probably would also take it against any other team -, due to the magic moment they have been living at this beginning of the season, with 7 wins conquered in 7 games.

The Bucks lead the group and most of the competition statistics, while their opponent is only fourth in the Northwest Division, having played 8 games, won 4, and lost 4.

In the last two games, the Timberwolves lost to the Suns (116-107) and the Santo Antonio Spurs (107-98).

Faced with the difficulty of their opponent, Milwaukee has everything needed to win this confrontation and their -153 odds just reflect their momentum. 

Our guess is for the Bucks to win.

NBA 22/23 Weekly Preview 3 – Detroit Pistons vs. Cleveland Cavaliers

When

Friday, November 4th, 07:00 PM ET

Moneyline odds

Detroit Pistons +236

Cleveland Cavaliers -303 

Where can I watch it?

NBA League Pass

Even playing at home this round, the Detroit Pistons will have a hard time beating the Cavaliers. The hosts have won just two matches this season, which puts them at the bottom of the Central Division.

On the other hand, the Cavaliers arrive motivated for this game, as they are in constant pursuit of the Bucks – leader of the division – and rely on their streak of 6 straight wins to end their opponent’s pretensions to victory.

Even as visitors, the Cavaliers come with a -303, contrary to the +236 of the host. Clevland comes from a heart attack win against the second-best team from last season, Boston Celtics, where Donovan Mitchell and Caris LeVert completely obliterated their rivals’ defense with 41 points each.

We will go for a victory for the Cavaliers.

NBA 22/23 Weekly Preview 3 – Orlando Magic vs. Sacramento Kings

When

Saturday, November 5th, 5 PM ET

Moneyline odds

Orlando Magic (to be updated soon)

Sacramento Kings (to be updated soon)

Where can I watch it?

NBA League Pass

The worst teams of the Southeast Division and Pacific Division will face each other on Saturday, in a very tense confrontation, in which the teams will try everything to win and improve their positions in the table.

The Magic welcome the Kings at home after beating the Golden State Warriors 130-129, in a very balanced and difficult game. The Kings lost to the Miami Heat, away from home, by 110-107 and increased the number of losses in the current NBA season to five.

The confrontation between the teams favors the Sacramento Kings but shows a certain balance. In the last 20 games they’ve faced each other, the Kings have won 12 and lost 8.

Our guess is for the Sacramento Kings to win.
