Best Bet

Hawks –5.5 @ $1.90

Bet Now

It’s tough to know what the Hawks are going to deliver. They pulled out all the stops when beating the Phoenix in overtime last week but inexplicably followed it up with a 93-76 loss to the lowly Cairns Taipans.

The defending champions aren’t playing with consistency, and it’s why they’re on the outside looking in. However, they have too much talent to bet against, and the Bullets have fired blanks since the injury to Casey Prather.

They have four consecutive losses, including a 90-65 loss to Adelaide in their most recent game. That was an uninspired performance, and if the Hawks want a chance to defend their title, they need to hammer the Bullets.

Same Game Multi

Hawks –5.5, Tyler Harvey 20+ Points, JaVale McGee 10+ Rebounds, Over 181.5 Points @ $10.75

Bet Now

Betting on Tyler Harvey in 2025 has been a mistake, but the American is too good to continue slumping. He has recent totals of 13, 12, and 12 points, which is shocking form for a player who was instrumental in their NBL title success. Punters get $2.95 for Harvey to have 20+ points, so we’re biting at the apple.

JaVale McGee could have a season-best rebounding performance. The Bullets will miss many shots, and the odds for him to score 10+ rebounds are generous. Include the former NBA star to clean up the boards.

Defence will be secondary in this game, so over 181.5 points is an attractive line. It’s worth including in NBL same game multi picks.

Best Value Bet

Tyler Harvey 20+ Points @ $2.95

Bet Now

2025 isn’t a vintage year for Harvey, but we’re prepared to give him another chance at the odds.

Getting $2.95 for Harvey 20+ points would have been shocking at one stage of his career. He’s clearly not playing with the same freedom he once had, but he only needs to drain a couple of early threes to get his confidence back.

The odds are too good to pass up, and the Hawks need him to show up.
