Squirrel’s Nuts & Bolts NBA - November 20th, 2025

Thursday brings a small slate of NBA action, with four games on the slate on both DraftKings and FanDuel. The night tips off at 7 PM ET with LAC/ORL (ORL -5.5, 218.5), then the last three games tip off at 8 PM ET with ATL/SAS (SAS -1.0, 233.0), PHI/MIL (PHI -1.5, 224.0), and SAC/MEM (MEM -3.5, 235.0), giving us an early night.

With only four games on the slate, the injury list is manageable, a break from our recent larger slates. Kristaps Porzingis and Zaccharie Risacher are uncertain to play for Atlanta, while Kawhi Leonard, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Joel Embiid, Paolo Banchero, Jaren Jackson, and Domantas Sabonis are all either doubtful or out.
