BEST BETS

Herbert: Cavs (-15.5) over Sixers: The Cavs have won sixth straight and should easily be able to keep their streak going against the lowly Sixers.

Moore: Mavericks (-4.5) over Timberwolves: The Wolves are a league-worst 2-8-1 at home as an underdog, and Dallas is rolling right now.

Harper: Jazz (-1.5) over Lakers: Even with it being a back-to-back for the Jazz, they look like a completely new team with Rudy Gobert back. They should be able to handle a small spread against the Lakers pretty easily.
