Odds and Trends in the NBA (Jan. 8th)

nba Jan 08, 2023

Here's the daily report for NBA trends for Sunday, January 8th.

It's a great looking betting card with 9 NBA games scheduled.  The Nets-Heat and Jazz-Grizzlies day games are the best matchups on the board.

Meanwhile, the Toronto Raptors (16-23) have been in a tailspin downward. They've lost three straight games.  They face the Portland Trailblazers (19-19) at home, and are -3 point favourites.  This line seems a  bit surprising, since Portland is 5-0 straight up in its last 5 games when playing Toronto.
