Happy Monday, everyone! Only two nights remain in the NBA League Pass free preview, so let’s make it count. There are three NBA LP games tonight & one nationally televised game on NBA-TV. Let’s have a look.
7:30pm ET on NBA League Pass: Sacramento Kings at Atlanta Hawks. If those west coast tip times are just too late for you to watch the Kings, tune in to this game tonight. DeMarcus Cousins and Willie Cauley-Stein will be going up against Dwight Howard in the paint, and it should be as intense as they come as far as battles that get very physical. This is my pick for game of the night.
7:30pm ET on NBA League Pass: Denver Nuggets at Toronto Raptors. Jamal Murray will be available to come off the bench for the Nuggets, and Patrick Patterson is listed on the Raptors’ game notes for tonight as a probable starter. This should be a pretty good game; the Raptors have a strong, playoff-experienced team, and the Nuggets are young and energetic.
7:30pm ET on NBA-TV: Chicago Bulls at the Brooklyn Nets. This game should be an easy win for Rajon Rondo and the Bulls. The Nets are one of the worst teams in the league with a roster mostly comprised of names few moderate basketball fans have heard before. I would honestly recommend watching either of the other games in this time slot.
10:30pm ET on NBA League Pass: Phoenix Suns at Los Angeles Clippers. The Clippers are one of the best teams in the West right now, so this will be a tough one for the Suns, who have a 0-3 record right now. Still, their four former Wildcats, Bledsoe, Booker, Knight and Ulis, should all be available, making it worth taking a look.
There you have it, tonight’s small slate of four games. Enjoy!
