Philadelphia 76ers @ Oklahoma City Thunder – 5pm ET

Tony Battalio

It has been a fantastic start to the season for the Philadelphia 76ers, and they will be looking to maintain that solid start with a victory here on Saturday against Oklahoma City. Philadelphia has been one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference throughout the early part of the year as they continue to string together wins, despite all the off the court drama that surrounded them before the season started. They have seemed to play better without James Harden on the roster as it has allowed guys like Tyrese Maxey to thrive and Joel Embiid to play freely and play his game without having to worry about feeding Harden. Philadelphia comes into this game with 10 victories through their first 15 games of the year and they will be looking for their 11th win of the season here on Saturday night on the road in Oklahoma City. Philadelphia has struggled over their last two games as they come into this one on a two game losing streak, and they will be looking to bounce back and grab their first victory this week.

Oklahoma City is off to a respectable start this season and they will be looking to keep the momentum rolling here on Saturday night at home against the Philadelphia 76ers. Oklahoma City is a very young team, but they are finding success throughout the early part of the season, and they will be looking to maintain that success throughout the rest of November. A victory in this game would be a huge momentum boost for them, and a statement victory early on in the season against one of the top teams in the league. Oklahoma City comes into this game with 11 victories through their first 15 games of the season as they are off to a red hot start to the year. They will be looking to maintain that start with a victory here in this game at home against Philadelphia on Saturday night as they look to further establish themselves as a contender in the western conference this season. I expect this to be a close and competitive game and I do look for Oklahoma City to pull out the victory at home here in this one. 

Atlanta Hawks @ Washington Wizards – 7pm ET

Tony Battalio

The Atlanta Hawks had a rough start to the season, and they come into this one hovering around the .500 mark through their first handful of games this year. They will be looking to get the momentum rolling in the right direction with a quality performance here on Saturday night on the road against a struggling Washington team. Trae Young will have to lead the way for this Atlanta Hawks team throughout this game on Saturday night in Washington as Atlanta looks to pick up a quality victory on the road early on in the regular season. Atlanta comes into this game with seven victories through their first 14 games of the regular season and they will be looking for their eighth victory of the year here on Saturday night against Washington. They come into this game after picking up a solid victory over Brooklyn and their previous contest and they will be looking for their second consecutive victory here on Saturday night. They have already picked up one victory against Washington this year and they will be looking for a second one here on Saturday as well.

It has been a pretty rough start to the season for Washington as they come into this game as losers of 13 out of their first 15 games on the year. They will be looking to get some momentum rolling in the right direction with a quality victory here at home on Saturday night against the Atlanta Hawks. Unless something changes rather quickly, this Washington team will likely stay in the bottom of the standings throughout the remainder of the season. As the combination of Kyle Kuzma and Jordan Poole has yet to click on the court. Washington has lost nine out of their last 10 games on the season and they come into this game on an eight game losing streak that they will be looking to snap against Atlanta here on Saturday at home. They have been pretty awful at home this season losing five out of their first six on their home floor and I don’t see things getting better for them in this one. As I look for the Atlanta Hawks to pick up the victory over the Washington Wizards here on Saturday night.

Los Angeles Lakers @ Cleveland Cavaliers – 7:30pm ET

Tony Battalio

The Los Angeles Lakers come into this game on Saturday night in Cleveland looking to pick up a quality victory on the road against a playoff team from the Eastern Conference. LeBron James is returning back to Cleveland for yet another performance, and this time around it feels like it could potentially be a curtain call as there’s not much time left on his career. He will be looking to record a quality performance on Saturday night in Cleveland and help lead the Los Angeles Lakers to a much-needed victory early on in the season. It has been a solid start of the season for the Los Angeles Lakers and they will be looking to maintain that momentum with a quality performance here in Cleveland on Saturday night. Los Angeles has picked up nine victories through their first 16 games of the regular season and they will be looking to grab their 10th victory of the year here in this one.

The Cleveland Cavaliers had a slow start of the season but they have picked up some momentum over the last week and a half. They will be looking to maintain that momentum with a quality performance here at home on Saturday night against the Los Angeles Lakers. Donovan Mitchell has been playing well throughout the season for Cleveland and despite the fact that he has missed the last few games, Cleveland has found a way to be successful and pick up some much-needed victories over some quality teams. Cleveland comes into this game with eight victories through their first fifteen games of the season and they will be looking for their ninth victory of the year here on Saturday night at home. They have been a pretty tough team to beat at home this season, and now they will be looking to take LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers to the limit and grab another victory. That is exactly what I expect in this game on Saturday night as I look for Cleveland to pick up the win at home over Los Angeles.

New Orleans Pelicans @ Utah Jazz – 9:30pm ET

Tony Battalio

The New Orleans Pelicans are off to a solid start this year, and they have the opportunity to be one of the best teams in the league as long as they remain healthy and consistent. Unfortunately, they have struggled at remaining healthy as CJ McCollum and Brandon Ingram have both missed several games throughout the early part of season. They will be looking to grab a solid victory here on Saturday night on the road in Utah as they look to grab a crucial win early on in the season and wrap up the month of November strong. This will be the second game of a back-to-back for New Orleans after facing the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday night, and they will be looking to wrap up this back to back on a positive note with a quality performance here on Saturday against Utah. They are off to a somewhat decent start this season as they are hovering around the .500 throughout their first 16 games of the regular season, and they will be looking to add another victory to their win total here on Saturday night. 

Utah comes into this season with plenty of expectations, and they will be looking to get things rolling in the right direction with a quality performance here on Saturday night against New Orleans. They will have the home court advantage in this one and they will be looking to take full advantage of it to pick up a much-needed win early on in the regular season. It has been a rather forgettable start to the regular season for Utah as they come into this game with 11 losses through their first 15 games of the regular season and they will be looking for their fifth victory of the season here on Saturday night at home against the New Orleans Pelicans. They will be looking to snap a four game losing streak with a solid performance in this game on Saturday night as they look to get things back on track throughout the month of November. Unfortunately for Utah I don’t see that happening as I look for New Orleans to pick up the victory in this game here on Saturday night on the road.

Dallas Mavericks @ Los Angeles Clippers – 10:30pm ET

Tony Battalio

The Dallas Mavericks coming into this game looking to keep their quality start to the season, rolling with another victory here on Saturday night on the road against the Los Angeles Clippers. A healthy and consistent Dallas team is arguably one of the best teams in the league and they will be looking to maintain that health and consistency throughout the early part of the regular season. Dallas comes into this game with 10 victories through their first 15 games of the season and they will be looking for their 11th victory of the year here on Saturday night on the road in Los Angeles. Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving have been playing well throughout the early part of the season and they are helping Dallas off to this fantastic start and they will be looking to continue doing so in this crucial Western Conference matchup here on Saturday night in the city of Angels.

The Los Angeles Clippers will be looking to grab a massive momentum boosting victory here on Saturday night at home against the Dallas Mavericks. If the Los Angeles Clippers can find some consistency with their big three on the roster, they could potentially be one of the most dangerous teams in the league this season. However, shortly after the arrival of James Harden, they went on a lengthy losing streak to put them behind the eight ball coming into this game on Saturday night against Dallas. This will be the second game of a back-to-back for the Los Angeles Clippers, and they will be looking to wrap up this back to back on a happy note here at home on Saturday night against the Dallas Mavericks. I expect this to be close and competitive game here on Saturday night, but in the end I look for the Dallas Mavericks to pick up the win over the Los Angeles Clippers.
