We are going to take the points out of the mix here, and back the Philadelphia Sixers in their home opener. There is currently an outlying moneyline price on the Sixers at Unibet. Most of the market is closer to (-180) on the Sixers moneyline. The Bucks will begin the season without Khris Middleton, Pat Connaughton, and Joe Ingles. The Sixers are fully loaded tonight. They are playing at home in Philly, where they've had a lot of success in the regular season. The Sixers also have a game under their belt which should be beneficial. For these reasons, our bet is on the Sixers moneyline for one unit.

The big storyline for the Clippers is the return of Kawhi Leonard, and the addition of John Wall. For the Lakers, the storyline is whether or not this Lakers roster will produce a different result than last season. It would be surprising to see Kawhi Leonard play significant minutes tonight. This is his first official game back in well over a year. The Clippers have not had much time for this roster to build chemistry given the injuries and new additions. The Lakers have a game under their belt, and they will have Anthony Davis & LeBron James both on the floor (which we didn't see much of last season). We will take the 6 points with the dogs. Our bet is a half unit.
