Wednesday NBA betting preview

If the NBA regular season ended today, the Cleveland Cavaliers would host the Atlanta Hawks for a first-round playoff series, so a matchup on Wednesday serves as a potential preview. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET and the latest NBA odds from DraftKings list Cleveland as the 1.5-point home favorite while the over/under is 235.5.

Then in the Western Conference, the San Antonio Spurs will host the Portland Trail Blazers at 9:30 p.m. ET. The Spurs are looking like they'll slot in as the No. 2 seed in the West while Portland is currently the No. 9 seed and will have to fight its way out of the NBA play-in tournament. San Antonio is favored by 3.5 at home and the over/under is 228.5 points. Get $300 in bonus bets if your first $5 wager wins here:
