- Date: 04/03/2025
- Tip Off: 0:00 UTC
- Charlotte Hornets, who are 14th in the East with a 14-45 record, will take on seventh-placed Golden State Warriors in the West with a 32-28 record. The Warriors have won the last five H2H meetings.
With the 113-100 home defeat at the hands of the Washington Wizards on Sunday, the Charlotte Hornets suffered their sixth consecutive loss in the NBA. The Hornets are having huge problems offensively, having scored under 100 points in the last five games. They have been shooting under 44% from the field in the last six games. The Golden State Warriors ended a five-game winning streak after losing to the Philadelphia 76ers 126-119 on the road on Sunday. Steph Curry’s 29 points and 13 assists were not enough to help his team win their fourth consecutive road game. Nevertheless, the Warriors are in better form and must be able to prevail in this game.

Two teams in unstable form go head-to-head in this matchup: Memphis Grizzlies vs Atlanta Hawks
- Date: 04/03/2025
- Tip Off: 01:00 UTC
- Fourth-placed Memphis Grizzlies in the West with a 38-22 record will host Atlanta Hawks, who are ninth in the East with a 27-33 record. Two of the last three H2H produced over 240 points.
The Memphis Grizzlies enter this match on the back of a 128-130 home loss at the hands of the San Antonio Spurs in the previous game. That was the fourth consecutive game that the Grizzlies' games produced over 227 points. Playing at home, the Grizzlies lost three of their last four games. The Atlanta Hawks couldn’t handle a strong Oklahoma City Thunder offense and lost 119-135 at home on Saturday. For the second game in a row, the Hawks’ defense allowed their opponents to score over 131 points. The Grizzlies have the most points scored average in the NBA with 123 points per game, and the Hawks’ average is 116.
Memphis Grizzlies vs Atlanta Hawks Prediction: Over 230.5 points
An expected close matchup is bound to be a low-scoring one: Dallas Mavericks vs Sacramento Kings
- Date: 04/03/2025
- Tip Off: 01:30 UTC
- Ninth-placed Dallas Mavericks, with a 32-29 record, will square off against the Sacramento Kings, who are tenth with a 31-28 record. Two of the last three H2H meetings ended with under 211 points.
Despite Kyrie Irving's efforts and 31 points, the Dallas Mavericks couldn’t hold off a rampant Milwaukee Bucks, who won 132-117. That was the Mavericks’ third defeat in four games. The Mavericks’ defense wasn’t at its best, as they allowed the Bucks to have 14 offensive rebounds and 33 assists. The Sacramento Kings recorded their third consecutive win in the NBA by beating the Houston Rockets 113-103 on the road in the previous game. The Kings have won four of their last five road games. This game is crucial for both teams in their battle for a “play-in” spot as they are in the final two positions. Thus, we expect a close matchup resulting in a below-average score.
Dallas Mavericks vs Sacramento Kings Prediction: Under 225.5 Points
The Thunder are the firm favorites in this contest: Oklahoma City Thunder vs Houston Rockets
- Date: 04/03/2025
- Tip Off: 01:00 UTC
- First-placed Oklahoma City Thunder with a 48-11 record will entertain the Houston Rockets, who are fifth with a 37-23 record. The Thunder have won two of the last three H2H meetings.
As the Oklahoma City Thunder continue to rebuild and develop their young core, the 2025 season presents both exciting opportunities and challenges. The team, under the leadership of head coach Mark Daigneault, is one of the most intriguing in the NBA. Their youthful energy is certainly a tremendous strength; however, they might struggle when it comes to experience. The Houston Rockets suffered a surprise home loss at the hands of the Sacramento Kings by 113-103 on Sunday. This was their first home defeat in three games. However, playing on the road is not the Rockets’ favorite place recently, as they have lost their last six away games. The Thunder must not find any difficulty in coming out on top in this one.
