NBA betting: Tobias Harris set for huge opportunity with 76ers

Tobias Harris, pictured here in action for the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA.

On a roll with another 4-1 day. Let's try and keep it going.

Portland Trail Blazers @ Detroit Pistons

Another tankapalooza game with both teams resting players to secure the ‘win’.

Hard to know how it will go, but I know there will be a lot of missed shots, so the under is appealing.

Set at 221.5, I will slide under that number.

With a lot of expected missed shots, I think Drew Eubanks will be able to grab some rebounds.

His number is 8.5 and on TAB, going over is going to pay $2.05.

Best bet: Game total - Under 221.5

Best bet: Player rebounds - Eubanks over 8.5

Miami Heat @ Philadelphia 76ers

Very surprising to see Miami only 4.5 point favourites despite Joel Embiid being out.

There is uncertainty around Jimmy Butler, but I expect Miami to pound Philly if they are indeed starting DeAndre Jordan.

Without Embiid, surely Tobias Harris has the ball in his hands more.

That will lead to more assist opportunities and with a number as small as 2.5, I think he has a shot at going over. It is paying $1.91 to go over on Sportsbet.

Best bet: Handicap betting - Heat -4.5

Best bet: Player assists - Harris over 2.5

Precious Achiuwa, pictured here in action for the Toronto Raptors against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Toronto Raptors @ Chicago Bulls

Precious Achiuwa has improved a lot and has had some big scoring nights, but with Fred VanVleet back I think his points line is too optimistic.

Set at 14.5, I will go under that number which is priced at $1.95 on TAB.

Best bet: Player points - Achiuwa under 14.5
