NBA Turn Up: Daily Preview
Let’s try something new with the NBA for the rest of the season and beyond. I recently watched a video where Shaquille O’Neal was telling a story where his dad called him during a game. The security guard behind the bench hands Shaq the phone and his father asks, “Why are you playing like a little bitch? Turn it up Motherfucker”. Shaq story. That is where the name of this new series comes from so anytime we are talking NBA look for this title. It’s to serve as a reminder that if you don’t lace ‘em up every night ready to turn up then you will get embarrassed on the hardwood.
The objective of the series will be to share different NBA commentary, recaps and gambling insight into the night’s games. The NBA is a year round soap opera hated by many but we’re here for the non woke basketball some fans around the world still love.

[Player Prop]: Dario Saric Over 7.5 points (-130)
Saric has been getting some good minutes with the Thunder and has scored over 10 points the past 3 games. If he gets over 15 minutes of playing time it shouldn’t be a problem. It’s a Sunday so hopefully the bench gets more playing time than usual.
[Player Prop]: Kenyon Martin Jr. Over 23.5 (-110) Points, Rebounds & Assists; 6:00pm
Spurs are sitting out the majority of its team and this should open things up for Kenyon Martin Jr. to get some scoring in and to grab some rebounds. A little nervous after he had such a great game against the Spurs last nights but unless the Rockets try to lose on purpose they should get this.
[Player Prop]: Keldon Johnson Over 31.5 (-110) Points, Rebounds & Assists; 6:00pm
Keldon is the only true Spurs starting in this game and I expect a huge game from the Spurs star. He will do everything he can to score and grab rebounds. He normally carries the team when everyone sits so I’m comfortable with him laying this number.
[ROT #516]: New York Knicks (+7) vs. Boston Celtics; 6:30pm
The Knicks are red hot and travel to face Boston in primetime. The Celtics have been struggling to close games recently so I’m taking the Knicks to keep this one close and possible steal the outright win on the road. No Jalen Brunson tonight but I like Immanuel Quickley to fill in nicely. Gonna go with the dog here. I liked Knicks and just before posting I received the Brunson news. I’ll ride!
[Player Prop]: Russell Westbrook Over 28.5 (-105) Points, Rebounds & Assists; 9:10pm
Russ has been the butt of jokes recently but has been putting up fairly nice numbers in his games with the Clippers. I expect a huge game from LA to snap the losing streak. Westbrook may get more playing time with PG and Kawhi off the floor if they get out to a large lead. I like Russ to put up good numbers tonight.
