The Sixers-Bucks matchup headline tomorrow’s 10-game slate here in the NBA as both teams stake their winning streaks.
On the other hand, the Raptors, Nets, Kings, Celtics, Spurs, Warriors, Heat, Hornets, and the Clippers are going to enter hostile territory as they take on their respective counterparts.
Get up to date with the latest in the Association in our preview here at SBOTOP.
Toronto Raptors @ Detroit Pistons
After a long wait, the Raptors will finally field in a more complete roster in their upcoming game.
Pascal Siakam, Malachi Flynn, Patrick McCaw, OG Anunoby, and Fred VanVleet are now cleared to practice, which should increase their NBA 2021 odds to win tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the Pistons aim to end their losing skid as they’ll continue to rely on their youth-laden lineup.
Brooklyn Nets @ Indiana Pacers
The Nets plan to continue their surge to the top of the Eastern Conference as they take on the Pacers.
Brooklyn are winners of five straight games even without Kevin Durant, while the Pacers were recently beaten by the Nuggets.
As always, Kyrie Irving and James Harden will shoulder the load for the Nets, and it will take strong performances from Malcolm Brogdon and Domantas Sabonis to try and counter their visitors.
Milwaukee Bucks @ Philadelphia Sixers
The Sixers have a big test ahead of them as they’ll face a familiar foe tomorrow.
The Eastern Conference’s top team host the Bucks in what should be a fun matchup. However, the visitors are the favoured team in this game.
Joel Embiid suffered a left knee bruise that would sideline him for two to three weeks, which means that Tobias Harris and Ben Simmons will carry the offencive cudgels.
Giannis Antetokounmpo is still putting up ridiculous numbers for Milwaukee, and it is certain that much of tomorrow’s NBA 2021 highlights will feature him getting buckets.
Sacramento Kings @ Washington Wizards
The Kings and the Wizards look to halt their losing streaks as they’ll square off tomorrow at the nation’s capital.
Sacramento are in a midst of a two-game losing skid, while Washington suffered four defeats against the Bucks (twice), Sixers, and the Grizzlies.
De’Aaron Fox, Buddy Hield, Bradley Beal, and Russell Westbrook are going to light it up, which means that whichever supporting cast does more will win in this game.
Boston Celtics @ Cleveland Cavaliers
The Celtics look to move up of the Eastern Conference standings as they’ll try to grab a victory over the slumping Cavaliers.
Cleveland’s current form is in stark contrast to their promising run earlier this season, while the Celtics remain inconsistent.
Boston have won five of their last seven, however, which makes them the favourites to win in this match.
San Antonio Spurs @ Chicago Bulls
The Bulls have plans to sneak into the top eight of the Eastern Conference, and a win here over the Spurs will help them do that.
As of this writing, Chicago are one spot below the playoff-chasing Knicks, but the latter is on a two-game losing skid.
The Spurs confirmed that DeMar DeRozan won’t play due to personal reasons, leaving them a bit undermanned against Zach LaVine and co.
Zach LaVine is fresh from a 40-point effort in their win against the Thunder, and look for him to do something similar tomorrow.
Golden State Warriors @ Houston Rockets
Golden State aim to move up one game over .500 when they visit Houston tomorrow.
The Warriors lost to the Lakers in the last time out, but they are primed to bounce back in a major way against the Rockets.
The Stephen Silas-coached squad owns the longest active losing streak at 17 games, making them the third-worst team in the league.
Since they are likely to miss the playoffs this term, the Rockets have turned to their young guns as they try to rebuild.
Meanwhile, Golden State rely heavily on the leadership of Steph Curry and Draymond Green, and they are backstopped by the likes of James Wiseman, Andrew Wiggins, and Kelly Oubre Jr.
Miami Heat @ Memphis Grizzlies
Jimmy Butler dunks the ball during an NBA match
Jimmy Butler and the Heat will fight to extend their winning streak as they visit the Grizzlies.
After a disappointing start to their campaign, Miami are now at the fourth spot in the Eastern Conference standings as they’re enjoying a five-game winning streak.
Memphis look to recover since they’re reeling from three consecutive losses against the Suns, Thunder, and Nuggets.
Ja Morant and Jonas Valanciunas have been the bright spots for the Grizzlies, but they’ll need more consistency from their other teammates.
Charlotte Hornets @ Denver Nuggets
Tomorrow’s match between the Hornets and the Nuggets should be a high-scoring one given the firepower that these two teams have.
Led by super rookie LaMelo Ball, the Hornets are now fifth in the Eastern Conference because of their four-game winning streak. But they’ll be tested as the Nuggets have won six of their last seven games.
Los Angeles Clippers @ Dallas Mavericks
The Clippers will look to beat the Mavericks for the second straight time tomorrow in their mini-series.
In the previous game, Kawhi Leonard led LA with an all-around effort of 22 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, and four steals while six other Clippers scored in double figures.
Only Luka Doncic, Kristaps Porzingis, and Tim Hardaway Jr. scored in double digits for the Mavericks.
