Oklahoma City Thunder vs Cleveland-cavaliers Picks and Predictions January 16th 2025
The Cleveland Cavaliers and Oklahoma City Thunder are set to face off Thursday night in a game that promises fireworks. Both teams are absolutely crushing it this season, combining for a 67-11 record. The Cavs won the first matchup earlier this month, but the Thunder are out for revenge—and with both teams rolling, this one’s going to be electric. Let’s be real—Cleveland and OKC are on fire right now. The Cavs have won 17 of their last 19 games, while the Thunder have taken 18 of their last 19 (if you don’t count their NBA Cup loss to Milwaukee). Cleveland handed OKC their only recent L with a 129-122 win in a game that had 30 lead changes. Yeah, it

Washington-wizards vs Phoenix-suns Picks and Predictions January 16th 2025
The Phoenix Suns and Washington Wizards are both in rough patches right now, but something has to give when they meet Thursday night. The Suns are having a hard time winning on the road, while the Wizards just can’t seem to win anywhere, losing seven straight games. Phoenix kicked off their five-game road trip with a 122-117 loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday. Devin Booker and Kevin Durant did everything they could—Booker dropped 35 points with a season-high seven 3-pointers, and Durant added 31 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists—but it wasn’t enough. Why? Rebounding. The Suns gave up 20 offensive boards to Atlanta, and it cost them the game. “You’ve got to hit first,” Booker said. “Guys like

Detroit Pistons vs Indiana Pacers Picks and Predictions January 16th 2025
The Detroit Pistons are officially one of the NBA’s coolest comeback stories this season. Last year, they were stuck in the league’s basement with just 14 wins. Now? They’re heading into the halfway point with a winning record, no matter what happens Thursday night against the Indiana Pacers. With 10 wins in their last 12 games, the Pistons have totally flipped the script, sitting at 21-19. Monday’s win over the Knicks, 124-119, was the latest highlight. And it wasn’t just any win—it was a clinic in team trust and execution. Cade Cunningham faced double teams all night but didn’t force anything. Instead, he dished the ball to Tim Hardaway Jr., who set up Malik Beasley for two dagger 3-pointers in

Minnesota Golden Gophers vs Michigan Wolverines Picks and Predictions January 16th 2025
The 20th-ranked Michigan Wolverines are set to take their explosive offense to Minneapolis on Thursday to face the Minnesota Golden Gophers in a Big Ten showdown. Michigan, riding a five-game winning streak, looks to solidify its conference dominance, while Minnesota aims to end a frustrating slump. Michigan (13-3, 5-0 Big Ten) has been on a tear, showcasing their offensive prowess against traditional and new Big Ten opponents alike. With victories over recent conference additions Southern California, UCLA, and Washington, the Wolverines have proven they can adapt to diverse challenges. Their success stems from a high-octane offense installed by first-year coach Dusty May. The Wolverines have scored 85 or more points in eight consecutive games, but May remains focused on refining
