It is all hotting up in both the Eastern and Western Conferences in the NBA and another midweek programme is catching the eye with plenty of betting apps

The high-flying New York Knicks have a chance to keep their run of form going against Utah Jazz, the Boston Celtics host the Indiana Pacers in an Eastern thriller, whilst the LA Lakers hit the road, taking on the Atlanta Hawks.  

New York Knicks vs Utah Jazz Best Bet

31st January – Madison Square Garden, New York 

New York Knicks to win the match @ 1.80 (PlayUp)

Winning six games on the spin in the NBA always makes punters and betting sites stand up and take note and the New York Knicks are on a superb run of form. They take on the Utah Jazz next, a side who are making a resurgence of their own over in the West, with a playoff spot certainly not beyond them. 

That said, the New York Knicks are flying currently, and they should win well here.

Boston Celtics vs Indiana Pacers Best Bet

31st January – TD Garden, Boston

Over 225.5 points in the match  @ 2.15 (GetSetBet)  

Sitting pretty at the top of the Eastern Conference is something that the Boston Celtics have done all season and a stern test awaits in the form of the Indiana Pacers. 

Celtics are the team to beat in the race for the NBA Championship and their showings of late will give their fans plenty of confidence. 

Meanwhile, the Indiana Pacers have played without fear this season, sat firmly in the hunt for a playoff spot in the East and they’ll have a real crack at the Celtics here. 

This should be an entertaining one, with plenty of points in prospect.

Atlanta Hawks vs LA Lakers Best Bet

31st January – Stata Farm Arena, Atlanta
LA Lakers to win the match @ 1.91 (BlueBet)

Two sides with work to do if they are to break into their respective playoff spots face off, as the Atlanta Hawks welcome the LA Lakers. 

For the Hawks, a position of 10th in the Eastern Conference is not a bad return but they will feel they have the personnel to be performing even better over the next few weeks. 

Meanwhile, the LA Lakers have been making tough work of it over in the West but their progress is always tracked by domestic and international betting sites and they will want to put on a show for fans and punters here. 

This will be a good one, with the Lakers most likely to clinch the win.
