Top Weekend Games to Bet On: The biggest game of the NBA weekend is one which will have a pair of teams we don’t even know yet. Yes, the In Season Tournament is drawing to a close, with the semi-final games set for Thursday night, followed by the final on Saturday night. 2023 NBA Betting MyBookie Sportsbook | Regular Season: October 24, 2023, to April 14, 2024 | NBA Week 7
That is then followed by a dark day where we have no games on the schedule. Once that is all out of the way, we can get back to the regularly scheduled action of the regular season, but this little quirk in the scheduling makes our usual weekend picks a bit different. We usually pick one game from the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday schedule, but since we can’t do that, let’s instead pick 3 games that we really like from the Friday lineup of games to consider in your NBA betting.
New York Knicks at Boston Celtics
Friday, December 8, 7:30 PM at NBA TV | The Boston Celtics continue to hold the top spot in the Eastern Conference, albeit by the slimmest of margins, with the Milwaukee Bucks now breathing down their neck. The Celtics will look to hold onto their top spot when they host the New York Knicks in the Garden on Friday night.
Boston is coming off a loss, but they have been very good of late, winning 7 of their last 10 games. The Knicks are down in the #5 spot with a 12-8 record, but they too have won 7 of their last 10 games. The problem that the Knicks have here is that they are on the road to face a Boston team that has not lost at home yet. Can the Knicks end that streak?

Golden State Warriors at Oklahoma City Thunder
Friday, December 8, 8:00 PM | After a strong start to the season, particularly on the road, the Golden State Warriors have cooled off dramatically and are now sitting just below the play-in line. They are a game below .500 this season, while playing .500 ball on the road. They are coming off a win in their last game, but that also means that they have won just 4 times in their last 10 games. There are no such issues for the Oklahoma City Thunder, who have moved all the way up to the #2 spot in the Western Conference, 3 games out of the lead. They have won 7 of their last 10 games and are sitting at 6-4 in their own building, so the Thunder are certainly not unbeatable at home. This is a big game for both teams, albeit for very different reasons.

Sacramento Kings at Phoenix Suns
Friday, December 8, 9:00 PM | Our final pick for Friday night is another big game in the Western Conference. Heading into this one, the Kings are sitting just above the play-in line in the #6 spot in the conference, with the Suns sitting right behind them. A win for the Suns would see these two teams swap spots. Both teams are coming off a loss in their last outings, so they will both be looking to avoid starting a losing streak.
The Kings have been much better at home than on the road, but they head out for this one sitting at 5-5 away from home this season. It is the same story for the Suns, who have not been as good as expected at home, posting a 5-5 record through their first 10 home games.
