Philadelphia 76ers – Sacramento Kings : unbalanced matchup The Sixers host the Kings in the first meeting between these teams this season. Two franchises from different conferences, heading in opposite directions this 2025-26 campaign. Philly come in clear favourites — but on one night, any side can spring a surprise. Philadelphia 76ers : a must…

Dallas Mavericks – Minnesota Timberwolves: Ant vs Cooper Flagg The Mavericks host the Timberwolves for the second meeting of the season. Minnesota just got back on track after a rough patch, while Dallas are riding a good spell. Perfect recipe for a proper scrap. Dallas Mavericks: use the home court They dropped a tight one…

Memphis Grizzlies – Charlotte Hornets: Opposite trajectories The Grizzlies host the Hornets in a clash between two teams sitting in similar spots in their conferences but heading in totally different directions. Charlotte’s climbing. Memphis is stuck in limbo. Memphis Grizzlies: Need to bounce back at home Memphis is in a funk — four losses in…

Toronto Raptors – New York Knicks: Who’ll finish 3rd? The Raptors host the Knicks in a match that already matters in the East playoff race.

Indiana Pacers – Chicago Bulls: Division clash The Pacers host the Bulls in a game that pits a team angling for a top draft pick against a Play-In hopeful. The trajectories don’t match, but Indiana can still wake up for a night and turn a mismatch into a tight game now and then. Indiana Pacers:…

Cleveland Cavaliers – Los Angeles Lakers: LeBron returns to his old haunt The Cavaliers and Lakers meet in a game that could be historic — maybe the last time LeBron James plays in the arena that drafted him and where he delivered that 2016 title. Drama aside, both teams need the win. Standings matter, and…

Utah Jazz – Los Angeles Clippers: season finale showdown The Jazz host the Clippers for the third and final time this season. They split the earlier meetings, so this one settles the tiebreak. Utah will be missing key pieces, and that could turn what should be competitive into a sloppy night. Utah Jazz: all bets…
