NBA Acca of the Day – Oct. 22, 2025
Introduction
Starting this season we’re sharing a daily NBA accumulator — a short selection of three solid picks aimed at making a little profit each week. Below you’ll find quick previews, reasoning for each play, and the combined acca odds. Keep in mind lines can move, so check them before placing any bets.
New York Knicks vs Cleveland Cavaliers — Wednesday, 7:00 p.m. EST
Pick: New York Knicks +5.5 | Odds: 1.51
The Knicks open at home and usually protect their court well; blowouts are rare. The Cavaliers are coming in short-handed without one of their key guards, which dampens their offensive flow. Expect a competitive Knicks squad that will keep things close — the call is they won’t lose by more than five points.
Boston Celtics vs Philadelphia 76ers — Wednesday, 7:30 p.m. EST
Pick: Philadelphia 76ers +5.5 | Odds: 1.57
Boston has undergone big changes over the summer and is also dealing with an injury to a star forward. Philadelphia arrives with its own stars healthy and motivated to bounce back after last season. Even if the 76ers don’t walk away with the win, they should keep it within five points thanks to their core duo.
Milwaukee Bucks vs Washington Wizards — Wednesday, 8:00 p.m. EST
Pick: Milwaukee Bucks -2.5 | Odds: 1.30
The Bucks had plenty of offseason chatter but now need to focus on winning. Facing a weaker opponent at home, Milwaukee should be able to grind out a victory by at least a few points. Expect them to cover a small spread against the Wizards.
Other Games
There are previews for other matchups on the slate, including Portland vs Minnesota and Phoenix vs Sacramento. Those games aren’t part of this acca but are worth checking out if you’re building alternative tickets.
