Philadelphia @ Dallas 8:35 PM ET

Game# 537-538

Play On: Philadelphia +2.5 (10*)

Dallas has played a grueling schedule of late and tonight will be their 9th game in the last 14 days. Additionally, they will also be playing their 3rd in 4 days and that includes last night’s 129-14 home loss to the Lakers. The mavericks have allowed 106 points or more in 8 straight games. Dallas has outscored the opposition by an average of 6.6 points per game this season. The Mavericks are a stellar 12-5 in away games this season but just 11-10 at home.

Philadelphia will be the fresher team just based on tonight being only their 5th game in 14 days. The 76ers will be out to atone for a 19-point home loss to Dallas earlier this season so that should give them that much more incentive.

Any NBA team (76ers) that +3.0 to -3.0, versus an opponent (Mavericks) that’s allowed 105 points or more in each of their previous 5 games, and they’re outscoring their opponents by 6.0 or more points per contest on the season, resulted in those teams going 33-6 SU&ATS (84.6%) since 1996.

Game# 539-540

Play On: Under 212.0 (5*)

Philadelphia enters tonight on a current 4-game losing streak. Conversely, Oklahoma City has won each of their previous 5 games played. This sets up a very straightforward NBA totals betting angle which is displayed below.

Game# 773-774

Play On: Utah State -3.0 (10*)

Game# 613-614

Play On: Ohio +8.0 (10*)

Purdue is 1-3 on the road and at a neutral site this year. The Boilermakers are coming off a shocking 70-56 loss at Nebraska in a game they were a sizable 13.0-point favorite.

Ohio is currently on a 4-game win streak which has improved their overall season record to 7-3. It’s rare that a team from the MAC gets to host a power conference school so look for that to provide added motivation for Ohio. Bet on Ohio plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Lakers @ Heat 7:05 PM ET

Game# 539-540

Play On: Heat +6.0 (10*)

Kudos to the Lakers on their fantastic start to the season. However, what seems to be overlooked on a national scale is the terrific 18-6 record of Miami. Furthermore, the Heat are a perfect 11-0 at home while winning by a enormous by NBA standards 15.7 points per game. This is a game for the unheralded heat to make a statement in front of a national TV audience and receiving this generous amount of points provides ample betting value. Bet on the Heat plus the points for a 10* Top Play.

Michigan @ Illinois 9:00 PM ET

Game# 651-652

Play On: Illinois -1.0 (10*)

This looks like a trap if there ever was one. We have an unranked team in Illinois that enters this contest having lost 2 in a row as a favorite over #5 Michigan. The books are begging you to take the ranked team in this matchup. I’m not falling for the bait with knowing that odds-makers aren’t generous, nor do they leave themselves vulnerable to public betting. Bet on Illinois for a 10* Top Play wager.

Indiana vs. Connecticut 9:30 PM ET

Game# 629-630

Play On: Connecticut +2.0 (10*)

They followed that up in their previous game with a 20-point loss at unranked Wisconsin. Furthermore, that loss was the first game not played on their home floor.

This game will be played at Madison Square Garden in New York. There will be a pro UConn crowd at the Garden tonight with many Huskies Alum in the area in addition to a reasonably short enough drive from Connecticut to downtown Manhattan.

Phoenix @ Sacramento 10:05 PM ET

Game# 579-580

Game# 585-586

Play On: Over 227.0 (10*)

Minnesota has seen 5 of its last 6 go over the total and there was a combined average of 235.7 points scored per game. Since the start of the 2017-2018 season, the Timberwolves have gone over the total during 6 of their 7 games played against San Antonio. Saying that Minnesota likes to play at a phonetic offensive pace is an understatement. They’re averaging a massive 96 field goal attempts per game this season and that included 100 per home contest.

Speaking off a quickened offensive tempo, San Antonio certainly won’t shy away from such based on it’s average of 91 field goal attempts per game. The Spurs have been extremely shaky defensively over their last 3 outings while allowing 120.0 points per game and letting opponents shoot a combined 51.3%. Since last season, San Antonio is 15-5 over on the road when there’s been a total of 220.0 to 229.5. Those 20 contests averaged a combined 235.7 points scored per game. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Milwaukee @ Minnesota 8:05 PM ET

Game# 533-534

Play On: Under 229.5 (10*)

Milwaukee is coming off a 115-105 win over Toronto. Minnesota is coming off a 131-109 win over Washington. The combination of these 2 results sets up an NBA betting angle which has been extremely profitable during the past 22 seasons and is displayed below.

Any team (Milwaukee) with a total of 220.0 or greater that’s coming off a win by 10 points or more, and they’re facing an opponent (Minnesota) coming off a win by 20 points or greater, resulted in those games going 56-19 (74.7%) under the total since 1996.

Raptors @ Warriors 9:00 PM ET

Game# 527-528

Play On: Under 215.5 (10*)

Golden State was embarrassed by their defensive effort during Wednesday’s 123-109 loss. They allowed the Raptors to shoot 52.4% in that contest. It marked just a 4th time in their 19 playoff games that Golden State allowed an opponent to shoot 50% or better. The last 3 times that this occurred, the Warriors followed that up by holding their opponents to 39.6% shooting or worse on each occasion.

Despite Game 3 easily going over the total, Toronto has seen 7 of their 9 road playoff games stay under the total. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Game# 525-526

Play On: Under 213.5 (10*)

Toronto has gone under the total in all 7 of playoff road games this year when there was a total of 218.0 or less. The average total in those contests was 212.9 and there was a combined 202.3 points scored per game. Conversely, since 2015, Golden State is 33-20 (62.2%) under the total in their home playoff games, and that includes 11-5 (68.8%) under if they’re coming off a road win.

Any Game 3 NBA Playoff away underdog that’s coming off a playoff home favorite straight up loss, and the series is tied 1-1, resulted in those games going 17-8 (68%) under the total since 2005. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Warriors @ Raptors 8:00 PM ET

Game# 523-524

Play On: Under 213.5 (10*)

The opening game of this series saw both teams combine for only 155 field goal attempts which is well below the NBA average. Yet, the contest somehow produced 227 points. When researching further I discovered some statistics that are very unlikely to occur in 2 consecutive games. The Raptors shot 50.6% and it marked a first time they eclipsed 50% in 13 games. The teams combined to go 56-63 (88.9%) from the free throw line. Not only is that free throw percentage absurd, but the number of attempts by both teams far exceeds this season’s NBA per game average. Additionally, both teams shot the ball very efficiently from 3-point territory while collectively going 25-64 (39.1%). It’s a very good percentage for one team let alone both converting at the high degree of efficiency. Golden State has gone 3-1 during this postseason following a loss. Throughout those 4 games the Warriors held opponent to 40.5% shooting and 30.3% from beyond the 3-point line. It’s quite apparent they’ve shown a postseason tendency to bear down defensively after losing in their previous game. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Warriors @ Raptors 9:07 PM ET

Game# 521-522

Play On: Raptors +1.0 (10*)

Toronto overcame a 2-0 series deficit in the Eastern Conference Finals to defeat Milwaukee in 6 games. The Raptors have been terrific defensively at home during these 2019 NBA Finals while holding its opponents to 95.8 points scored per game, 40.1% shooting, and 32.0% from beyond the 3-point line. Toronto went 2-0 against Golden State during regular season action, and one of those wins came without Kawhi Leonard in the lineup. Counting the postseason, Toronto has gone a terrific 40-11 (.784) at home this season.

Any home team in an NBA Finals series opener has gone 13-1 straight up and 12-2 ATS since 2005. If the home team won their conference finals series in exactly 6 games, they improve to 6-0 SU&ATS at home in Game 1 of the NBA Finals and the average margin of victory was 14.0 points per contest. Bet on the Raptors for a 10* Top Play wager.

Bucks @ Raptors 8:30 PM ET

Game# 511-512

Play On: Under 212.5 (10*)

Toronto has been terrific defensively throughout their 9 home playoff games. Thru that stretch, the Raptors held visiting opponents to 96.0 points per game, 40.1% shooting, and permitting them to make only a mere 31.6% of their three-point attempts. As a matter of fact, during the first 5 games of this Eastern Conference Final Milwaukee is a terrible 30.3% from beyond the 3-point line.

Toronto made 18 three-point shots and 25 free throws in the previous game. Yet, that contest still went well under the total by 9.0-points. The pace in which this series has been played has slowed considerably. The first 2 games of this series saw a combined average of 182.0 field goal attempts per game and the previous 2 produced just 167.5 per outing. Games 3 and 4 in Toronto had closing totals of 221.5 and 217.5. Both contests went over but that hasn’t deterred the odds-makers from dropping this opening total down to 214.0. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Golden State @ Portland 9:00 ET

Game# 501-502

Play On: Portland +3.0 (10*)

Portland could easily be up 2-1 instead of down 3-0 in this series. They blew big leads in each of the last 2 games.

Since 2013, any NBA Playoff home underdog of 4.5 or less playing in a Game 4 and they’re down 3-0 in the series, resulted in those home underdogs going 7-2 SU&ATS. If those home underdogs have a win percentage of .570 or better, they improved to 4-0 SU&ATS and outscored their opponents by a decisive 13.0 points per contest. Bet on Portland plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Bucks @ Raptors 7:00 PM ET

Game# 549-550

Play On: Raptors -2.0 (10*)

The Bucks are 10-1 SU&ATS during these 2019 NBA Playoffs, and that includes 4-0 SU&ATS in away games. Yet, they find themselves as an underdog against a Toronto team which despite reaching the Eastern Conference Finals is only 8-6 during postseason action. If it smells like a rat and looks like a rat, then it’s a rat. I’m not falling for the trap of being lured into taking the red-hot underdog. It’s also worth noting,

Toronto has lost the first 2-games of this series, and they’ve suffered 3 straight defeats just once this season. The last time that occurred was way back on 11/16/2018 which is a little over 6 months ago. Since that time, Toronto has gone 7-0 following 2 consecutive losses and won by a substantial margin of 15.2 points per contest.

Any NBA Playoff home favorite that playing in Game 3 of the series and is coming off away underdog ATS losses in the opening 2 games, resulted in those favorites going 44-25 (63.8%) since 2003. Taking this betting angle one step further, if those home favorites were facing an opponent with a win percentage of .730 or better, they improved to 4-0 ATS and won by 15.6 points per game. Bet on the Raptors for a 5* wager.

Golden State @ Portland 9:00 PM ET

Game# 547-548

Play On: Portland -2.0 (10*)

Portland is currently down 2-0 in this Western Conference Final. Considering that no NBA playoff team has ever overcome a 3-0 series deficit, you can essentially label this as a must win contest for the Trailblazers. Portland has gone an outstanding 37-10 at home this season.

Any NBA Playoffs home favorite that’s down 2-0 in a series is 47-26 ATS (64.4%) since 2003, and that includes an even better 11-4 ATS (73.3%) since 2016. Bet on Portalnd for a 10* Top Play wager.

Raptors @ Bucks 8:30 PM ET

Game# 531-532

Play On: Raptors +6.5 (10*)

Toronto has gone under the total by a cumulative 135.0 points during their previous 10 games. Conversely, Milwaukee has beaten the point-spread by a a combined 54.0 points over its last 10 contests. This sets up an extremely profitable NBA betting angle which is illustrated in the next paragraph.

Any NBA away underdog that’s gone under the total by a collective 48.0 points or more throughout their previous 10 games, and they’re facing an opponent (Bucks) who’s cover their last 10 games by a combined 54.0 points or more, resulted in those away underdogs going 43-11 ATS (79.6%) during the past 5 seasons. The average line in those 54 contests was 8.4. Furthermore, this exact NBA betting angle is 6-1 ATS during the 2018-2019 regular season and playoffs.

Although conference finals teams that are coming off a 7- game series haven’t any success of late in reaching the NBA Finals, if they were an away underdog in the opening game, they’ve been a profitable point-spread wager. Since 2003, any NBA Conference Finals away underdog (Raptors) that won their previous series in 6 or more games have gone 14-5 ATS (73.7%). Those underdogs also won 10 of those 19 games straight up. Bet on Toronto plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Trailblazers @ Nuggets 3:30 PM ET

Play On: Over 212.5 (10*)

There will be no analysis today.

Warriors @ Rockets 9:00 PM ET

Game# 519-520

Play On: Rockets -7.0

The Rockets have won 11 straight home games and covered in 10 of those contests. They were a favorite on all 11 occasions and won by a decisive average of 17.0 points per game. This line has certainly been adjusted due to the absence of Kevin Durant. It still won’t be enough points for the underdog Warriors against a Rockets team who will be playing with desperation and urgency in order to stave off elimination. I look for Houston to make a statement tonight and cast doubt into the Warriors for a deciding Game 7. Bet on the Rockets minus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Nuggets @ Trailblazers 10:30 PM ET

Game# 517-518

Conversely, Portland is a perfect 6-0 SU&ATS in their last 6 home games following a straight up loss in a contest that they were an away underdog. The Trailblazers won those 6 contests by a decisive average of 13.7 points per game.

Any NBA Playoff home favorite of 2.5 to 8.5 (Portland) that’s coming off a postseason away loss by 20 points or more, resulted in those home favorites going 20-9 ATS (69%) since 2008. Bet on Portland minus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Philadelphia has gone under in 4 straight games and during that time held opponents to 41.4% shooting and includes 30.1% from 3-point range.

The 76ers are coming off Saturday’s opening game 111-102 loss to Brooklyn and they did so as a closing 7.5-point home favorite.

Any NBA Playoffs favorite of 4.0 points or more, coming off a straight up loss by 4 points or greater in a game in which they were favorite by 4.0-points or more, resulted in those favorites going 58-17 ATS (77.3%) since the 2009 NBA Playoffs. The average line in those 75 games was 8.0 and the favorites outscored their underdog opponents by a decisive 14.5 points per game. Bet on the 76ers minus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Texas Tech vs. Virginia 9:20 PM ET

Game# 811-812

Play On: Texas Tech +1.5 (10*)

Texas Tech is coming off an impressive 61-51 win over Michigan State on Saturday. The Red Raiders are now a perfect 5-0 ATS during this NCAA Tournament and that includes their last covers coming as an underdog. Texas Tech is allowing a mere 55.8 points per game and have held opponents to just 36.4% shooting during this 2019 NCAA Tournament. Conversely, Virginia has been extremely fortunate in their previous 2 wins over Purdue in overtime and by 1 against Auburn. Both wins came via some last second heroics.

Any NCAA Tournament underdog of 8.5-points or less that’s playing in the Sweet 16 or beyond, and they allowed 54 points or fewer in their previous game, resulted in those underdogs going 21-4 ATS (84%) since 2009. Bet on Texas Tech plus the small number for a 10* Top Play wager.

Auburn vs Virginia 6:09 PM ET

Game# 803-804

Play On: Virginia -6.0 (10*)

The public has fallen in love with the underdog Auburn Tigers and it’s reflected in the betting patterns for this Final Four contest. However, Virginia is healthier and the better team in this matchup. The Cavaliers haven’t been at their best during their 4 NCAA Tournament games, yet, they’re 2 wins away from a national championship. I look for the Cavaliers to be sharp as a razor today. Bet on Virginia minus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Celtics @ Pacers 8:05 PM ET

Game# 539-540

Play On: Under 213.0 (10*)

The Pacers are outscoring opponents by an average of 3.9 points per game this season. Boston is 15-5 under on the road this season when facing teams with a +3.0 or greater point per game differential.

Boston is coming off a 112-102 win at Miami in their previous outing. Indiana is coming off a division 108-89 blowout win at Detroit in its last game. The combination of these results and the current total sets up an extremely profitable NBA betting angle which is illustrated below.

Any home team (Indiana) with a total of 200.0 or greater that’s coming off a division win by 10 points or more, versus an opponent (Boston) coming off a road win by 10 points or more, resulted in those games going 38-12 (76%) under since 1996. The average total in those 50 contests was 211.2 and there were a combined 205.0 points scored per game. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

TCU has won by 13 points or more in each of their first 3 NIT games. The Horned Frogs are allowing 69.9 points per games this season while Texas gives up 67.1 points per contest. Any college basketball team (TCU) that’s coming off 3 straight wins by 10 points or more and they’re and they’re allowing 67 to 74 points per game on the season, versus an opponent (Texas) that’s allowing 67 to 74 points per game on the season, resulted in those teams going 96-16 (85.7%) straight up since 1997. Bet on TCU for my 2019 NIT Game of the Year.

Wichita State vs. Lipscomb 7:00 PM ET

Game# 709-710

Play On: Over 150.5 (10*)

During their first 3 NIT games, Lipscomb has averaged an impressive 89.7 points scored per outing while shooting a combined 51.9%. As a matter of fact, Lipscomb has shot 48.2% or better in each of their previous 7 games. Conversely, they’re also allowing 81.0 points per game during this 2019 NIT and opponents have eclipsed the 50% mark shooting on 2 of 3 occasions.

Wichita State is currently 22-14 (.647) and Lipscomb is 28-7 (.800). Any NIT game with a total of 150.0 to 159.5, and both teams have a win percentage of .600 to .800, resulted in those contests going 24-6 (80%) over the total since 2015. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Detroit @ Indiana 7:05 PM ET

Game# 561-562

Play On: Detroit +5.5 (10*)

Indiana has lost 7 of its last 8 and each of their previous 3 games. Conversely, Detroit is 17-8 during their last 25 and that includes an extremely profitable 19-6 (76%) L25. Detroit has won 2 of 3 games against Indiana this season.

Auburn vs. Kentucky 2:20 PM ET

Game# 693-694

Play On: Kentucky -4.5 (10*)

Auburn’s chances of winning this game took a huge hit when starting forward Chuma Okeke suffered a knee injury with 8 minutes left to play in the Tigers 97-80 blowout win over North Carolina on Friday night. At the time of his injury, Okeke amassed 20 points and 11 rebounds against North Carolina’s massive frontcourt players.

Kentucky has beaten Auburn twice already this season. During those wins the Wildcats averaged 81.0 points scored per game and shot a blistering hot 54.4% from the field. Furthermore, Kentucky held an enormous 76-50 rebounding advantage. That’s even more concerning for Auburn who will be without the services of Okeke. Bet on Kentucky minus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Texas Tech vs. Gonzaga 6:09 PM ET

Game# 683-684

Play On: Texas Tech +4.5 (10*)

Gonzaga is #1 nationally in scoring offense (88.2 PPG) and field goal percentage (52.8%). However, they’ll be facing a Texas Tech team that’s #3 nationally in scoring defense (58.7 PPG) and #1 in defensive field goal percentage (36.7%).

Texas Tech has exhibited even tighter defense throughout their first 3 NCAA Tournament games. During that time, they allowed a mere 53.0 points per game while holding opponents to a combined 35.5% shooting. They covered in each of those contests and their average victory margin was 18.0-points per contest. Additionally, the Red Raiders have shot 48.1% during that identical time frame. I’m going with the Big 12 regular season champion in this one. Bet on Texas Tech plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Virginia Tech vs. Duke 9:39 PM ET

Game# 669-670

Play On: Virginia Tech +7.0 (10*)

Duke is 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games and that includes 1-4 ATS since Zion Williamson’s return from injury. Duke barely escaped with a 77-76 win over Central Florida in their previous game and were extremely fortunate to do so as a 13.0-point favorite.

Virginia Tech is a whole different team with star point guard Justin Robinson in the lineup. Following a convincing home win over Syracuse earlier this season, Robinson missed several games due to injury and the Hokies weren’t nearly as efficient offensively. Nevertheless, they did manage to beat Duke without Robinson. Well Robinson is back and so are the Hokies. Additionally, Virginia Tech is 7-1 straight up this season when playing at a neutral site. This is a balanced Virginia Tech team that’s totally capable of pulling off an upset today. However, I’ll take the points as an additional bonus. Bet on Virginia Tech plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Texas Tech vs. Michigan 9:39 PM ET

Game# 657-658

Play On: Texas Tech +2.0 (10*)

Both teams are excellent defensively. The difference in this game will be Texas Tech is more consistent on the offensive end. The Red Raiders have scored 70 or more in 10 straight games. Conversely, Michigan has scored 70 or less in 14 of their last 19 games.

Texas Tech is coming off a 78-58 win over Buffalo. Any Sweet 16 or Elite 8 underdog of 8.5 points or less that allowed less than 60 points in their previous game, resulted in those underdogs going 31-9 ATS (77.5%) since 2006. Bet on Texas Tech plus the small number for a 10* Top Play.

LA Lakers @ Utah 10:35 PM ET

Game# 583-584

Oklahoma is 6-1 straight up this season following a game in which they shot 50% or better. The Sooners have also gone a very profitable 8-4-2 ATS this season as an underdog. There’s nothing bad to say against Virginia except that I’m fading them today. Bet on Oklahoma plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Kansas vs. Auburn 9:40 PM ET

Game# 849-850

Play On: Auburn -2.0 (10*)

Although Kansas was extremely impressive in their blowout win over Northeastern on Thursday, I haven’t been crazy about this 2018-2019 Jayhawks team, and especially when not playing on their home floor.

Survive and advance appropriately fits Auburn’s opening round game after escaping with a narrow 1-point win over New Mexico State. Speaking of New Mexico State, that’s the same Aggies team that gave Kansas all they can handle during a 3-point loss in early December and entered the NCAA Tournament on a 19-game win streak. Auburn has gone an eye-catching 8-1 straight up this season when playing at a neutral site, and their only defeat came by 6-points against 2019 NCAA Tournament #1 overall seed Duke. Bet on Auburn minus the small number for a 10* Top Play wager.

Liberty vs. Mississippi State 7:27 PM ET

Game# 821-822

Play On: Mississippi State -6.0 (10*)

Liberty earned their automatic bid by winning 74-68 at Lipscomb as a 6.0-point underdog in their conference championship game. That victory improved the Flames season record to an outstanding 28-6 (.824). However, Liberty has yet to face an opponent this season which is part of the 68-team NCAA Tournament field.

Mississippi State enters the NCAA Tournament with a solid 23-10 record. The Bulldogs own non-conference wins over 2019 NCAA Tournament teams such as Cincinnati (28-6), Wofford (29-4), and St. Mary’s (22-11). They also played 9 games against fellow SEC teams which are in the NCAA Tournament and won 3 of those contests.

Any college basketball favorite (Mississippi State) with a winning record that’s facing an opponent with a win percentage of .800 or better, and they’re (Liberty) coming off a conference win as an underdog of 6.0 or more points, resulted in those favorites going 33-9 ATS (78.6%) since 1997. The average point-spread in those 42 games was 5.4.

Liberty has been a trendy upset pick this week. Nevertheless, I firmly believe that’s fool’s gold. Mississippi State has seen 39.3% of their games played this season come against teams who are in the 2019 NCAA Tournament. The tougher schedule will pay huge dividends against an opponent that’s feasted on low level competition. Bet on Mississippi State minus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

New Mexico State vs. Auburn 1:30 PM ET

Game# 781-782

Play On: New Mexico State +6.0 (10*)

Auburn won games in 4 days to win the SEC Tournament title which concluded with an upset of Tennessee in Sunday’s Finals. Now on just 3 days rest they’ll be facing an extremely dangerous New Mexico State team which has won 19 straight games. The Aggies are a dominating +13.8 rebounds per game over their last 8 outings. Conversely, Auburn is a -6 rebound per game in throughout their previous 6 contests. New Mexico State has shot 50.8% or better in 5 of their last 7 games. Auburn has allowed its previous 5 opponents to shoot a combined 47.8% and that includes an alarming 42.1% from 3-point territory. Bet on New Mexico State plus the points as a 10* Top Play wager.

Davidson is averaging a healthy 76.1 points scored per game at home this season. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 10* Top Play wager.

Florida State vs. Duke 8:30 PM ET

Game# 633-634

Play On: Florida State +8.0 (10*)

Duke revenged 2 regular season losses to archrival North Carolina by defeating the Tar Heels 74-73 in yesterday’s ACC Semifinals. Now they are laying a sizable number against a red-hot Florida State team they beat on the road in their only regular season meeting with the Seminoles. That surely equates to a potential emotional letdown despite the ACC crown being at stake.

Since starting ACC play 1-4, Florida State has rebounded to win 14 of their next 15 games. Their only loss in that sequence came at North Carolina. There’s a ton of betting value today on the underdog Seminoles. I wouldn’t be shocked at all to see an outright upset. However, I won’t be greedy and will gladly take the points as an additional bonus. Bet on Florida State plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Colorado vs. Washington 9:00 PM ET

Game# 847-848

Play On: Colorado +3.5 (10*)

Washington has gone 3-2 during their previous 5 games. However, they failed to cover on each occasion and were a favorite in all 5 contests.

Colorado comes in red-hot having won 10 of its last 12 and that includes a current 5-game win streak. The Buffaloes will be playing with double revenge after losing both regular season meetings with Washington by margins of 7 and 9 points. The Buffaloes have been outstanding defensively during their present winning streak while allowing a mere 61.4 points per game and holding its opponents to 37.0% shooting. They also held an enormous +11.0 rebounds per game over their opponent throughout this present win streak. Bet on Colorado plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

Game# 709-710

Play On: Under 151.0 (10*)

Louisville has gone under in their last 6 games when there’s been a total of 126.0 or greater. Those 6 contests averaged only a combined 126.3 points scored per game. The Cardinals have covered in each of their previous 3 games. Louisville is 8-0 under the total this season following 2 or more ATS wins in a row and there were a collective 133.6 points scored per contest. The Cardinals have struggled offensively throughout their last 5 appearances while scoring a mere 63.4 points per game while shooting just 37.3% which includes 26.9% from 3-point territory.

North Carolina has garnered the reputation as an explosive offensive team and rightfully so. However, they’re vastly underrated defensively. As a matter of fact, during their last 5 outings they’ve held opponents to a collective 38.6% shooting. The Tar Heels have gone under in 5 straight games when there’s been a total of 148.0 or greater. North Carolina also went under during both of this season’s games against Louisville.

Portland @ LA Clippers 10:35 PM ET

Game# 545-546

Play On: LA Clippers +2.5 (5*)

Portland has been terrific at home this season. Nonetheless, they’re a dismal 6-14 straight up and 7-13 ATS this season when facing Western Conference teams on the road. The Trailblazers are also 2-3 during its last 5 games overall and allowed a sizable 119.2 points per contest.

The only negative I see for the Clippers in this one is they played last night while Portland enters tonight’s contest on 2 days rest. However, the Clippers were a 140-115 blowout winner over Boston last night which enabled them to rest their top players late in that contest. With that win over the Celtics, they’re now 5-0 SU&ATS during their last 5 at home while winning by a decisive 18.0 points per game. Since 2/2/2019, the Clippers are 5-0 SU&ATS as an underdog of 4.0 points or fewer and won by 10.4 points per contest. Bet on the Clippers plus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.

During those 4 home tilts, they averaged 125.2 points scored per game while shooting 49.5% and converted on an excellent 44.1% of its 3-point attempts.

They’ve gone a perfect 4-0 SU&ATS this season as a double-digit home favorite when playing on exactly 2 days of rest, and won by an enormous 25.2 points per contest.

Any favorite of 10.0 or greater that’s coming off a road game in which both teams scored 100 points or more, and they’re facing an opponent (Pacers) that’s coming off a division win, resulted in those double-digit favorites going 33-11 ATS (75%) since 1996.

San Diego State @ UNLV 10:00 PM ET

Game# 749-750

Play On: UNLV +1.0 (10*)

San Diego State is coming off a huge home upset win as an 8.0-point underdog over #6 ranked Nevada 924-2) in their previous game. The Aztecs will be facing another elite Mountain West Conference team in Utah State (21-6) next. Sandwiched between is tonight’s contest versus 15-11 UNLV. This certainly shapes up as a flat spot for the Aztecs.

Speaking of UNLV, they’re currently on a modest 3-game win streak. The Rebels will be out to revenge a 17-point loss at San Diego State earlier this season. Despite that decisive defeat, the game was clearly decided by free throws. San Diego State was able toi get to the charity stripe 30 times and made 24 of those attempts. Conversely, UNLV was awarded just 14 free throws and converted only 6 of those attempts. That’s a highly unlikely scenario to occur again. Bet on UNLV for a 10* Top Play wager.

Denver @ Dallas 8:30 PM ET

Game# 527-528

Play On: Dallas +4.5 (10*)

Game# 673-674

Play On: Over 142.5 (10*)

Sacramento State is averaging 77.9 points scored per game at home this season. Throughout their previous 5 games Sacramento has shot an impressive 48.2%. Weber State is 10-5 in Big Sky Conference play and averaged 80.6 points scored per game while doing so.

Weber State has gone over the total in their last 3 outings and there were a combined 157 points or more scored on each of those occasions. Sacramento State will look to avoid a slow start like they had in their previous out when they scored only 25 first half points. The combination of these facts and data qualifies for a very successful betting angle which is illustrated below.

Any team (Sacramento State) with a total of 140.0 to 149.5 who scored 25 points or fewer during the 1st half of their previous game, and they’re facing an opponent (Weber State) that’s seen a collective 155 points or more being scored during each of its last 3 contests, resulted in those games going 66-23 (74.2%) over the total during the past 5 seasons.

Game# 719-720

Play On: Fresno State -2.0 (10*)

New Mexico has gone an uninspiring 7-6 at home this season. The Lobos are coming off a 92-60 win at Mountain West cellar dweller San Jose State.

As a matter of fact, they’ve lost 7 of their last 10 overall and 2 of those wins came against opponents (San Jose State/Wyoming) who’ve combined to go an abysmal 9-38 this season.

Monmouth @ Rider 7:00 PM ET

Game# 867-868

Play On: Rider -7.5 (10*)

This qualifies as one of those situations in which using a contrarian approach would is the most logical thing to do. Monmouth has gone 4-0 SU&ATS during their previous 4 games played. One of those wins was over Rider and they do so as a 4.5-point home underdog. Conversely, Rider is 0-5 SU&ATS in their last 5 contests. As a matter of fact, Rider has failed to cover in 9 straight games. Yet, Rider opened as a 5.5-point favorite and it’s since moved to 7.5 despite better than 60% wagers being made on Monmouth thus far. If it looks like a trap and seems like a trap, then it’s a trap. Bet on Rider minus the points for a 10* Top Play wager.
