We live in a sports world where Father Time is undefeated, but many can be quick to close the door on certain players or teams and move on to the next thing when they reach a certain age or face a few bumps in the road.
Happy Valentine's Day! («Every day's the 14th,» for the Outkast fans out there). The NBA has an extremely packed slate on the day of love, with 13 games scheduled and 26 of the 30 teams in play. With this abundance of action, there will be a lot of opportunities to find players and teams likely to outplay their odds. Let's dig in to some that catch my eye.
There is a big, 10-game slate in the NBA tonight, including a battle of MVP contenders in Nikola Jokic's Nuggets vs Giannis Antetokounmpo's Bucks, and a battle for the top seed in the Western Conference with the Timberwolves facing off with the Clippers.

It's the fourth and final regular season matchup between these two teams, with the Suns having won three of those games. The Warriors won four of five games during their most recent road trip. The Warriors will face the Suns in primetime and are motivated to secure their first win against Phoenix this season, aiming to prove they remain a legitimate team in the Western Conference.
If I'm placing bets on a weekend, I'm not looking at full game spreads or totals. Those are efficient markets that have been bet into all week. Instead, I'm looking for the obscure. It's my specialty, anyway. It's what I build statistical models around to try to find an edge. If there's an advantage to be found now, it's in small markets.
