03-27-24 | Spurs v. Jazz -3 | Top | 118-111 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 23 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to fade the San Antonio Spurs following their upset win as a 12-point underdog to the Phoenix Suns on Monday. The Spurs are 7-15 ATS in their last 22 games following a straight up win, and they'll face a Utah Jazz team looking to snap back from a 115-105 loss to the Dallas Mavericks. The Jazz are 19-9-2 ATS in their last 30 games following a double-digit loss at home and 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games as a favorite of 0.5-4.5. 4* PLAY ON THE JAZZ. |

03-27-24 | Lakers v. Grizzlies OVER 221.5 | Top | 136-124 | Win | 100 | 13 h 19 m | Show |
5* NBA WESTERN CONF TOTAL OF THE WEEK The Los Angeles Lakers will play on short rest following a 128-124 loss to the Bucks in Milwaukee last night. Tired legs typically equal high-scoring games for the Lakers, who are 8-0-1 to the over in their last 9 games playing on 0 days rest. The Memphis Grizzlies are coming off a 128-103 loss to the Denver Nuggets, and they've allowed 118 points or more in four of their last five games. 5* PLAY ON THE OVER. |

03-26-24 | Mavs v. Kings UNDER 233.5 | Top | 132-96 | Win | 100 | 13 h 23 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* MAVS/KINGS NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY (10:00 PM) The Sacramento Kings will play on short rest following a 108-96 win over the Philadelphia 76ers and they have held their last five opponents to an average of 102.4 ppg. The Dallas Mavericks have also been feisty on the defensive end of late with only 105, 107, 97 and 105 points allowed through their last four games. Under is 5-1 in Kings last 6 games as a favorite. Under is 55-27 in Mavericks last 82 games as an underdog of 0.5-4.5. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
|||||||
03-26-24 | Oilers v. Jets +110 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 28 m | Show |
5* NHL WESTERN CONF GAME OF THE WEEK The Winnipeg Jets return home from a five-game road trip which they wrapped up on a bad note with three consecutive losses. They're a solid 23-9-2 on home ice for the season though, and tonight they'll host an Oilers team that has dropped four of its last five on the road. 5* PLAY ON THE JETS. |
|||||||
03-26-24 | Warriors -120 v. Heat | Top | 113-92 | Win | 100 | 13 h 19 m | Show |
5* EAST vs. WEST CONF GAME OF THE WEEK This looks like a great spot to fade the Miami Heat who are in a potential letdown spot after blowing the doors off the Cavs on Sunday while at the same time backing the Golden State Warriors to rally after back-to-back losses. Heat are 1-9 ATS in their last 10 games as a home underdog. Warriors are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss. Warriors are 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games following an ATS loss. Warriors are 14-4 ATS in their last 18 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. 5* PLAY ON THE WARRIORS. |
|||||||
03-24-24 | Warriors +3.5 v. Wolves | Top | 110-114 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 19 m | Show |
5* WESTERN CONF GAME OF THE WEEK The Minnesota Timberwolves are coming off a 104-91 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, but I would not be surprised if they lost outright when hosting the Golden State Warriors Sunday night. When fully fit, the Wolves would have a massive advantage in the paint, but that will not be the case for this game. Karl-Anthony Towns is sidelined, and Rudy Gobert is listed as questionable. Additionally, Anthony Edwards is also listed as questionable while the Warriors are coming into the game at full strength. The Warriors will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing 123-111 loss as a home favorite over the Indiana Pacers. Warriors are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up loss, 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS loss, and 14-3 ATS in their last 17 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. 5* PLAY ON THE WARRIORS. |

03-23-24 | Jazz v. Rockets UNDER 226.5 | Top | 119-147 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 17 m | Show |
5* WESTERN CONF TOTAL OF THE YEAR MAX BET On Thursday, the Utah Jazz lost 113-97 to the Mavs in Dallas. They have scored 100, 104, 107, and 97 points in their last four games, all of which went under the total. The Houston Rockets have been involved in high-scoring affairs lately, but note that the under is 14-6 in the Rockets' last 20 Saturday games. Additionally, the under is 38-17 in the Rockets' last 55 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. This situation applies to this contest as they're coming off a 127-117 win over the Chicago Bulls. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
|||||||
03-23-24 | Oilers -125 v. Maple Leafs | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -125 | 13 h 24 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the Caps 7-3 as a road favorite on Wednesday, but they'll face a tougher test when they host the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday. This will be the third time they're a home underdog this season, and they lost the previous two (both against Carolina). Meanwhile, the Oilers are 16-12 as road favorites and 15-3 SU in their last 18 games against an opponent from the Eastern Conference. 4* PLAY ON THE OILERS. |

03-23-24 | Gonzaga -4 v. Kansas | Top | 89-68 | Win | 100 | 9 h 29 m | Show |
5* NCAAB TOURNAMENT ROUND OF 32 GAME OF THE YEAR MAX BET The Kansas Jayhawks barely scraped past Samford in a tight game on Thursday, and they've not looked quite right for some time. The Gonzaga Bulldogs, on the other hand, were as dominant as ever in their 21-point win over McNeese State. I see no reason why we wouldn't back the team that looks the part in this matchup. Bulldogs are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 neutral site games as a favorite. Jayhawks are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 neutral site games as an underdog. Jayhawks are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 5* PLAY ON THE GONZAGA BULLDOGS. |

03-22-24 | Celtics -12.5 v. Pistons | Top | 129-102 | Win | 100 | 17 h 0 m | Show |
5* NBA EASTERN CONF GAME OF THE WEEK MAX BET The Celtics beat the Pistons 119-94 in Boston on Monday and followed that up with a 122-119 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. The Pistons are coming off a 122-103 loss to the Pacers, and I don't see how they can keep it close against a Boston team that clearly has no intentions of slowing down or likely to look past any opponent. Celtics are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games as a favorite. Celtics are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite of 11.0 or greater. Celtics are 18-7-2 ATS in their last 27 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. Pistons are 9-23-1 ATS in their last 33 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of greater than .600. 5* PLAY ON THE CELTICS. |

03-22-24 | UAB v. San Diego State -6.5 | Top | 65-69 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 31 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* UAB/SDSU CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The UAB Blazers are coming off an 85-69 victory over Temple in the AAC tournament championship game on Sunday, but today they'll face a much tougher opponent in the San Diego State Aztecs, who will be looking to gear up again following a string of disappointing results. The Aztecs went on a huge run in the tournament last year to reach the national title game, and I think they're a much stronger team than their recent results suggest. 4* PLAY ON SAN DIEGO STATE. |
|||||||
03-21-24 | Pelicans -135 v. Magic | Top | 106-121 | Loss | -135 | 14 h 4 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY Both teams are hot and coming off convincing wins, but I like the New Orleans Pelicans to come through with a win as road favorites when they visit the Orlando Magic Thursday night. Magic are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a home underdog.Magic are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog of 0.5-4.5. Pelicans are 7-1-1 ATS in their last 9 games as a favorite. 4* PLAY ON THE NEW ORLEANS PELICANS. |
|||||||
03-20-24 | Kings -10 v. Raptors | Top | 123-89 | Win | 100 | 14 h 22 m | Show |
5* NBA EAST vs. WEST GAME OF THE MONTH MAX BET The Toronto will be playing on long rest following a 111-96 loss to the Magic in Orlando on Sunday, but they're still dealing with a ton of injuries, and with a 1-9 SU and 2-8 ATS record in their last 10 games, clearly a team in tanking mode. The Sacramento Kings, meanwhile, are eyeing the postseason. They are 35-17 ATS in their last 52 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a road favorite, while the Raptors are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. 5* PLAY ON THE KINGS. |

03-19-24 | Mavs v. Spurs UNDER 232 | Top | 113-107 | Win | 100 | 16 h 36 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Dallas Mavericks are coming off a 107-105 win over Denver, and the under is 18-6 in the Mavs last 24 games following a straight up win. The San Antonio Spurs lost 122-115 to Brooklyn their last time out, but they have mostly been involved in relatively low-scoring games lately. Under is 10-2 in Spurs last 12 home games and 16-6-1 in Spurs last 23 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
|||||||
03-19-24 | Rockets -8.5 v. Wizards | Top | 137-114 | Win | 100 | 15 h 40 m | Show |
5* NBA EAST vs. WEST GAME OF THE WEEK MAX BET I like the red-hot Houston Rockets to come through with another big win when they visit the Wizards at Capital One Arena Tuesday night. The Wizards lost 130-104 to the Boston Celtics a couple of nights ago and are 0-5 ATS in their last five games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game. The Rockets are coming off an impressive 117-103 win over Cleveland. They are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games overall and 11-4-1 ATS in their previous 16 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 5* PLAY ON THE ROCKETS. |
|||||||
03-18-24 | Grizzlies v. Kings OVER 224 | Top | 111-121 | Win | 100 | 16 h 13 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Sacramento Kings took a 98-91 loss to the Knicks on Saturday. I expect to see more points when they host the Memphis Grizzlies Monday night. The Grizzlies have one of the worst scoring averages in the league and they play solid D, but I expect the high-paced Kings to drive up the tempo. Over is 28-12 in Kings last 40 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5. Over is 5-1 in Grizzlies last 6 games as a road underdog. 4* PLAY ON THE OVER. |
|||||||
03-17-24 | Celtics -10.5 v. Wizards | Top | 130-104 | Win | 100 | 17 h 12 m | Show |
5* NBA EAST CONF GAME OF THE WEEK MAX BET The Boston Celtics are coming off a 127-112 win over Phoenix on Thursday. They're 8-2 SU and ATS in their last 10 games and outscored their opponent by 10 points or more in all wins. The Washington Wizards are 2-8 SU and 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games and were outscored by 10 points or more in all but one of the losses. The Celtics will play on two days of rest, while the Wizards will play on no rest following their 127-98 win in Chicago last night. This game has a major blowout written all over it. Celtics are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 2 days rest. Wizards are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games playing on 0 days rest. 5* PLAY ON THE CELTICS. |
|||||||
03-17-24 | Florida v. Auburn -5.5 | Top | 67-86 | Win | 100 | 6 h 32 m | Show |
5* SEC TOURNAMENT CBB GAME OF THE YEAR MAX BET I like the Auburn Tigers to win and cover when they clash with the Florida Gators in the SEC Championship game on Sunday. Auburn has been heavily favored throughout the tournament, this is the lowest number they've been asked to cover, while Florida was an underdog to Alabama in the quarterfinals and a short favorite over Texas A&M in the semis. Florida won the first meeting of the season on Feb 10, but that was in Gainesville. I think Auburn's edge on the defensive end is too much for Florida to handle. 5* PLAY ON AUBURN TIGERS. |
|||||||
03-16-24 | Thunder v. Grizzlies UNDER 219.5 | Top | 118-112 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 58 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA TOTAL OF THE WEEK The Memphis Grizzlies have had their season ruined by injuries, and they've been particularly limited offensively. Defensively, they've been doing just fine, holding opponents to a respectable 112.2 points per game (9th). Under is 36-17-2 in Grizzlies last 55 home games. Under is 9-4-1 in Grizzlies last 14 games playing on 2 days rest. Under is 5-2 in Thunder last 7 games as a favorite. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

03-16-24 | St. Joe's +2.5 v. VCU | Top | 60-66 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 41 m | Show |
MIKE'S 5* ATLANTIC 10 TOURNEY GAME OF THE YEAR MAX BET The VCU Rams won 73-69 when they hosted the St. Joseph's Hawks on Feb 25. I think we'll see an even tighter game when they clash in the Atlantic 10 Championship Semifinal Saturday afternoon. The feisty Hawks are coming off wins as 2-point and 2.5-point underdogs against George Mason and Richmond, respectively, and their 3-point shooting will be a big problem for VCu to solve. 5* PLAY ON ST. JOE'S. |
|||||||
03-15-24 | Nuggets v. Spurs UNDER 222.5 | Top | 117-106 | Loss | -108 | 18 h 43 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The San Antonio Spurs have played reasonably well on the defensive end lately, with 113, 112 and 103 points allowed through their last three games. The Denver Nuggets are more than capable of running up the score if they want to, but I think they'll be satisfied just to do enough to get the win. Under is 16-5-1 in Spurs last 22 overall. Under is 7-1 in Spurs last 8 games as a home underdog. Under is 22-8-2 in Nuggets last 32 games as a road favorite. Under is 7-1 in Nuggets last 8 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

03-15-24 | Mississippi State +10 v. Tennessee | Top | 73-56 | Win | 100 | 3 h 24 m | Show |
MIKE'S EARLY 4* MISS STATE/TENNESSEE CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Mississippi State Bulldogs came into the SEC Tournament on a four-game losing streak, but they opened the tourney with a 70-60 win over LSU. I think they can keep it somewhat close here against the Tennessee Volunteers, who enter the tournament Friday night. Volunteers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 neutral site games as a favorite. Bulldogs are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 neutral site games. 4* PLAY ON MISSISSIPPI STATE. |

MIKE'S 4* KNICKS/BLAZERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The New York Knicks are coming off a 106-79 knockout of the Philadelphia 76ers. The Knicks are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and the Portland Trail Blazers and their 10-23 home record fits the bill. 4* PLAY ON THE KNICKS. |

03-13-24 | Cavs v. Pelicans UNDER 215 | Top | 116-95 | Win | 100 | 13 h 1 m | Show |
TOTAL OF THE YEAR ALERT - 5* NBA EAST v WEST MAX BET The New Orleans Pelicans have played lockdown defense lately, holding each of their last four opponents to 103 points or fewer and two of those opponents to sub-100 points. They'll have fresh legs as they've been off since Sunday, and the under is 17-6 in Pelicans last 23 games playing on 2 days rest. I expect the Cleveland Cavaliers to bounce back with a strong defensive effort after allowing 120 and 117 points in their last two games. Under is 5-2 in Cavaliers last 7 games as a road underdog. Under is 5-2 in Cavaliers last 7 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

03-13-24 | Kansas State v. Texas -4.5 | Top | 78-74 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 49 m | Show |
MIKE'S KANSAS STATE/TEXAS CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Texas Longhorns defeated the Kansas State Wildcats 62-56 on Feb 19, and I think they'll get the win and cover when they clash in the Big 12 Tournament Wednesday night. Kansas State closed out the regular season with a win as an underdog against Iowa State, but was otherwise inconsistent down the stretch while the Longhorns were 3-0-1 AST in their last eight games, with three outright wins and the lone loss as an 8-point underdog at Baylor. 4* PLAY ON TEXAS. |

MIKE'S 4* BUCKS/KINGS NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Milwaukee Bucks have the second-best scoring offense in the league and the Sacramento Kings are hardly known for their grit on the defensive end with 117.9 points per game allowed (23rd). Over is 17-4-1 in Kings last 22 vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Over is 8-1 in Kings last 9 games playing on 1 days rest. 4* PLAY ON THE OVER. |

MIKE'S 4* PACERS/THUNDER NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Oklahoma City Thunder are currently the No.1 seed in the West, and they're showing no signs of slowing down. They're coming off a dominant 124-93 win over the Memphis Grizzlies to improve to 35-16-1 ATS in their last 52 games as a home favorite. Additionally, they're 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5. The Indiana Pacers defeated the Magic 111-97 on the road in their last game, but they're 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 4* PLAY ON THE THUNDER. |

MAX BET ALERT - 5* OKST/UCF BIG 12 GAME OF THE MONTH (12:30 EST) I like the UCF Knights to win and cover the spread against the Oklahoma State Cowboys in the Big 12 Tournament Tuesday afternoon. The Cowboys are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following an ATS loss while the Knights are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win. 5* PLAY ON UCF. |

03-11-24 | Warriors -4.5 v. Spurs | Top | 112-102 | Win | 100 | 12 h 13 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* WARRIORS/SPURS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a fantastic spot to back the Golden State Warriors to avenge a 126-113 loss as a double-digit favorite against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday. That was about as bad as we've seen the Warriors this season, and while they'll still be without Steph Curry (ankle), there's enough talent on this side to destroy a team like the Spurs if they want to, and I expect the motivation to be there for this game. Warriors are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 road games. Warriors are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Spurs are 6-14 ATS in their last 20 games following a straight up win. 4* PLAY ON THE WARRIORS. |

MIKE'S 4* NETS/CAVS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Brooklyn Nets are 6-19-2 ATS in their last 27 games as an underdog and 6-18-2 ATS in their last 26 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. The Cleveland Cavaliers headed into the weekend as the 2nd seed in the East with their 41-22 record and defeated the Nets 118-95 in Brooklyn last month. This looks like a tough spot for the Nets who are in the middle of a five-game road trip and will play on back-to-back nights on the road. The Nets are 0-6-1 ATS on the season when playing on 0 days rest as underdogs. 4* PLAY ON THE CAVS. |
|||||||
03-09-24 | Spurs v. Warriors -8.5 | Top | 126-113 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 50 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* SPURS/WARRIORS NBA GAME OF THE WEEK The Golden State Warriors won 118-112 when they hosted the San Antonio Spurs back in November, but I think they'll win this game by a bigger number. The Spurs played the Sacramento Kings close in a 131-129 loss Thursday night, but that might come at a price as consistency has been an issue for the Spurs all season. The Golden State Warriors are looking to bounce back from a 125-122 loss as an 8.5-point favorite against the Chicago Bulls. Warriors are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Warriors are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 games as a favorite. 5* PLAY ON THE WARRIORS. |

ACC GAME OF THE YEAR ALERT - 5* UNC/DUKE MAX BET The Duke Blue Devils and the North Carolina Tar Heels are coming into the weekend with identical 24-6 records, but I like Duke to win and get the cover as a home favorite. Blue Devils are 9-0 ATS in their last 9 games as a favorite. Blue Devils are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Tar Heels are 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog. Tar Heels are 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog of 0.5-6.5. 5* PLAY ON DUKE. |

MIKE'S 4* WOLVES/CAVS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a tough spot for the Minnesota Timberwolves who are on the second leg of a back-to-back situation following a 113-111 win in Indiana last night. They'll face a Cleveland Cavaliers team looking to bounce back from a loss to the Hawks in Atlanta on Wednesday night. Cavaliers are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 games as a favorite of 0.5-4.5. Cavaliers are 8-3 ATS for the season facing an opponent that is playing on 0 days rest. 4* PLAY ON THE CAVS. |

MIKE'S 4* CELTICS/NUGGETS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Boston Celtics are as per usual your regular season champions while the Denver Nuggets are quite happy to just make sure they're one of the top teams in the West. I expect to see the Celtics give 110%, especially after having an 11-game winning streak end with a 105-104 loss in Cleveland Tuesday night. 4* PLAY ON THE CELTICS. |

03-06-24 | Kings v. Lakers UNDER 238 | Top | 130-120 | Loss | -108 | 17 h 8 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA TOTAL OF THE WEEK We saw 235 points with a closing total of 238 when these two teams clashed back in November. The Sacramento Kings average a healthy 118.0 ppg on the season (8th), but that number drops when they're on the road and I think this will be another relatively low-scoring affair. Under is 14-3 in Lakers last 17 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. Under is 43-21-1 in Lakers last 65 games as a home favorite of 0.5-4.5. Under is 19-7 in Kings last 26 games as a road underdog of 0.5-4.5. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

03-05-24 | Pacers v. Mavs -4.5 | Top | 137-120 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 41 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK Neither the Dallas Mavericks nor the Indiana Pacers are playing well at the moment, but I like the Dallas Mavericks to bounce back with a solid outing tonight after losing to the Sixers as a 7.5-point favorite in their last game. The Mavs are 7-1-1 ATS off a loss as a favorite and the Pacers are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 road games. 5* PLAY ON THE MAVS. |

MIKE'S 4* BULLS/KINGS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to back the Chicago Bulls to bounce back with a strong effort following a 113-97 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks last Friday. The Bulls are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS loss, 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and 8-3-1 ATS in their last 12 games playing on 2 days rest. The Kings are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 home games and 4-11 ATS in their last 15 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5. 4* PLAY ON THE BULLS. |

03-04-24 | Panthers -115 v. Rangers | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 21 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* PANTHERS/RANGERS NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Florida Panthers are a solid 21-8-2 on the road this season. They've won 18 of 22 games as road favorites and 20 of 31 road games against teams with a winning record. 4* PLAY ON THE PANTHERS. |

03-03-24 | Clippers -120 v. Wolves | Top | 89-88 | Win | 100 | 15 h 32 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* CLIPPERS/WOLVES NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The 42-18 Minnesota Timberwolves have a better record than the 38-20 Los Angeles Clippers, but I would argue that LAC is the better team and it looks like the betting market agrees. I like the Clippers to win this game as the Wolves' top scorer Anthony Edwards is expected to miss the game (personal). Clippers are coming off 140-115 rout of the Washington Wizards, and they are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. 3* PLAY ON THE CLIPPERS. |

03-03-24 | Warriors v. Celtics UNDER 231.5 | Top | 88-140 | Win | 100 | 15 h 31 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* WARRIORS/CELTICS NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY The over/under is 8-3 in the last 10 meetings, and I expect this to be another relatively low-scoring affair. Under is 20-8 in Warriors last 28 vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Under is 20-7 in Celtics last 27 vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
|||||||
03-02-24 | Nuggets v. Lakers UNDER 229.5 | Top | 124-114 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 38 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY Both teams are dealing with injuries, which most likely will result in a lower-scoring game than the betting market anticipates. Nuggets' Jamal Murray is listed as questionable with a sprained right ankle. Lakers' Lebron James is also listed as questionable (ankle) while Anthony Davis is listed as probable (Achilles), and these are just the more notable names as both teams have more players banged up. Under is 16-5 in Lakers last 21 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. Under is 14-4 in Nuggets last 18 overall. Under is 18-7-1 in Nuggets last 26 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

GAME OF THE YEAR ALERT - 5* CAVS/PISTONS MAX BET This looks like a great spot to back the Cleveland Cavaliers to bounce back from a loss as a road favorite in Chicago on Wednesday. The Detroit Pistons are in a letdown spot after defeating that same Bulls team as a double-digit underdog on Tuesday. The Cavs are due for a breakout game after going 0-7 ATS in their last seven games, and this looks like the ideal situation. 5* PLAY ON THE CAVS. |

02-29-24 | Warriors -3.5 v. Knicks | Top | 110-99 | Win | 100 | 16 h 34 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* WARRIORS/KNICKS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The reeling New York Knicks took a 115-92 beating by the hands of the New Orleans Pelicans Tuesday night, and I think they're in for another tough game when the Golden State Warriors come to town tonight. The Warriors are a steaming hot 8-2 SU and ATS in their last 10 games and 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games as a road favorite. The Knicks are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as an underdog and 10-22 ATS in their last 32 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. 4* PLAY ON THE WARRIORS. |

02-28-24 | Cavs v. Bulls UNDER 217.5 | Top | 123-132 | Loss | -115 | 18 h 56 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA TOTAL OF THE WEEK The under is 4-0 in the Chicago Bulls' last four games following a 105-95 loss to Detroit on Tuesday. Tonight they'll face a Cleveland Cavaliers team that is one of the stingiest teams in the league on the defensive end and each of the last four h2h matchups has gone under the total. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

02-28-24 | Pelicans v. Pacers -5.5 | Top | 114-123 | Win | 100 | 17 h 26 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to back the Indiana Pacers to bounce back from a 130-122 loss to Toronto on Monday while at the same time fading the New Orleans Pelicans who will be playing on no rest off a win in New York. 4* PLAY ON THE PACERS. |
|||||||
02-28-24 | Providence v. Marquette OVER 149.5 | Top | 69-91 | Win | 100 | 17 h 42 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* CBB BIG EAST TOTAL OF THE YEAR The Marquette Golden Eagles have put up 105 and 88 points as double-digit home favorites in their last two games. They're a double-digit favorite once again when hosting the Providence Friars Wednesday night. The over is 18-8-1 in Golden Eagles last 27 vs. a team with a winning straight up record, and I expect to see plenty of points for both sides in this contest. 5* PLAY ON THE OVER. |

02-27-24 | Spurs v. Wolves UNDER 225.5 | Top | 105-114 | Win | 100 | 14 h 50 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* SPURS/WOLVES NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Minnesota Timberwolves are coming off a 101-86 win over the Brooklyn Nets. They've held four of their last 10 opponents to fewer than 100 points and they are owners of the best scoring-defense in the NBA with only 106.4 points allowed per game. Under is 7-2 in Timberwolves last 9 games as a home favorite of 11.0 or greater. Under is 6-2-1 in Spurs last 9 games as a road underdog of 11.0 or greater. Under is 9-2-1 in Spurs last 12 games as an underdog. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

02-27-24 | Warriors -11 v. Wizards | Top | 123-112 | Push | 0 | 13 h 53 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK This looks like a great spot to back the Golden State Warriors to bounce back from a disappointing 119-103 loss to the Denver Nuggets. The Washington Wizards are one of the worst teams in the league and 5-17 ATS in their last 22 games as a home underdog of 5.0-10.5 while the Warriors are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games as a road favorite of 11.0 or greater and perfect 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss. 5* PLAY ON THE WARRIORS. |

MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Sacramento Kings are coming off a 123-107 win over the Clippers in LA last night. They are 2-6 SU and ATS when playing on 0 days rest and 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games as a home favorite of 5.0-10.5.Don't sleep on the Miami Heat who are 11-4-1 ATS in their last 16 road games vs. a team with a winning home record and a team I expect to make a push in the second half of the season. 4* PLAY ON THE HEAT. |

02-26-24 | Alabama A&M -1.5 v. Florida A&M | Top | 58-76 | Loss | -105 | 19 h 50 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to fade the Florida A&M Rattlers following their upset win over the Alabama State Hornets. Rattlers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS win and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up win while the Alabama A&M Bulldogs are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record and 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games overall. 4* PLAY ON ALABAMA A&M. |

02-25-24 | Hornets v. Blazers OVER 218.5 | Top | 93-80 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 12 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA TOTAL OF THE WEEK The Charlotte Hornets and the Portland Trail Blazers have some of the worst scoring averages in the NBA, but I think we'll see a fair amount of points here in what should be a free-flowing game between two teams with little to play for. Over is 8-3 in Trail Blazers last 11 games as a home favorite. Over is 14-5 in Trail Blazers last 19 games as a home favorite of 0.5-4.5. 5* PLAY ON THE OVER. |

MIKE'S 4* PURDUE/MICHIGAN CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Michigan Wolverines are only 5-8 SU at home on the season and 2-9 ATS in their last 11 home games. The Wolverines are 4-17 ATS in their last 21 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record, and I think they'll lose big here against the 24-3 Purdue Boilermakers who are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. 4* PLAY ON PURDUE. |
|||||||
02-24-24 | Nets v. Wolves -7 | Top | 86-101 | Win | 100 | 17 h 39 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK The Minnesota Timberwolves will play on short rest following a 112-107 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks last night, but I still expect them to get the job done against a Brooklyn Nets team led by an interim coach. Timberwolves are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5. Timberwolves are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games playing on 0 days rest. Nets are 3-13 ATS in their last 16 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. 5* PLAY ON THE WOLVES. |

02-24-24 | Alabama v. Kentucky -2.5 | Top | 95-117 | Win | 100 | 11 h 30 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* SEC GAME OF THE MONTH This looks like a great spot to back the Kentucky Wildcats to bounce back from a disappointing loss as a road favorite at LSU. The Alabama Crimson Tide have been playing at a very high level but I don't trust them as underdogs. Wildcats are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games following an ATS loss. Crimson Tide are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog. Crimson Tide are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 road games. 5* PLAY ON KENTUCKY. |

MIKE'S 4* NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The New York Rangers are a solid 18-9-3 on the road for the season, and here they'll visit a Philadelphia Flyers team they have dominated in recent seasons winning eight of the last nine meetings. 4* PLAY ON THE RANGERS. |
|||||||
02-23-24 | Clippers v. Grizzlies UNDER 224.5 | Top | 101-95 | Win | 100 | 16 h 24 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA TOTAL OF THE MONTH The Los Angeles Clippers will play on no rest following a 129-107 loss to the Thunder in Oklahoma City last night, but I think they'll have a lot more success defending the shorthanded Memphis Grizzlies. Under is 20-8-1 in Grizzlies last 29 home games. Under is 6-2 in Grizzlies last 8 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. Under is 7-1 in Clippers last 8 games as a road favorite of 5.0-10.5. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
|||||||
02-22-24 | Predators v. Kings -145 | Top | 4-1 | Loss | -145 | 24 h 9 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Kings defeated the Nashville Predators 4-2 here in LA less than a month ago, and they are coming into this game on a four-game winning streak. The Preds are coming off back-to-back wins but I think they're in a potential flat spot following an upset win in Vegas on Tuesday. Perhaps the players enjoyed a night out in Vegas following the win, and if so they'll pay the price tonight. 4* PLAY ON THE KINGS. |
|||||||
02-22-24 | Suns +2.5 v. Mavs | Top | 113-123 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 46 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Dallas Mavericks are only 2-6 ATS in their last 8 home games and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. Additionally, I'm not even sure whether they should be favorites here in this matchup against the more talented Phoenix Suns, so I'll gladly take the points on the visitors. 4* PLAY ON THE PHOENIX SUNS. |
|||||||
02-21-24 | Kentucky v. LSU UNDER 164.5 | Top | 74-75 | Win | 100 | 15 h 42 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* CBB TOTAL OF THE MONTH I like the under when the LSU Tigers host the No. 17 Kentucky Wildcats Wednesday night. Kentucky is 18-7 to the over for the season, but the team has played lockdown D lately and coming off back-to-back unders after holding Ole Miss to 63 points and Auburn to 59 points. The Wildcats are one of the highest-scoring teams in the nation with their 88.2 points per game average, but this total looks too high to me. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
|||||||
02-21-24 | Sabres -120 v. Canadiens | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 19 h 10 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NHL GAME OF THE WEEK The Buffalo Sabres are 20-10 off a loss and backing them blindly in this spot has generated an ROI of +36.5%. The Montreal Canadiens are coming off losses to the NY Rangers and the Washington Capitals, and have not had nearly as much success in bouncing back from losses as Buffalo. 5* PLAY ON THE SABRES. |
|||||||
02-20-24 | Canucks v. Avalanche -137 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 24 h 42 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Vancouver Canucks are coming into this game with the better record, but also off a pair of setbacks, the most recent being a 10-7 loss in Minnesota last night. I'm still not convinced the Canucks are for real, unlike the Colorado Avalanche who are a proven powerhouse and 21-5-0 at home on the season. I think the juice is worth the squeeze in this matchup. 4* PLAY ON THE COLORADO AVALANCHE. |
|||||||
02-20-24 | VCU v. Massachusetts -2.5 | Top | 52-74 | Win | 100 | 14 h 3 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The UMass Minutemen took an 82-21 loss at La Salle in their last game, but they are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight up loss and 9-2 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS loss. The VCU Rams are in a potential letdown spot following four solid wins. 4* PLAY ON UMASS. |
|||||||
02-19-24 | Iowa State v. Houston -9.5 | Top | 65-73 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 18 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Houston Cougars are coming off an 82-61 win over Texas. I think they'll keep pushing the pedal to the metal here against an Iowa State team they know they must take seriously after suffering a 57-53 road loss to the Cyclones last month. Cougars are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 home games. 4* PLAY ON THE COUGARS. |
|||||||
02-19-24 | Jets -125 v. Flames | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -125 | 10 h 23 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Winnipeg Jets are 15-7-3 on the road for the season. This is a revenge spot after losing the first meeting of the season 5-3 here at the Scotiabank Saddledome. The slumping Calgary Flames have been shut out in two of their last three games (they lost all three games), and they even lost to the San Jose Sharks as a -300 favorite. The Jets meanwhile look to extend their winning streak to four games and I think they're undervalued in this matchup. 4* PLAY ON THE JETS. |
|||||||
02-18-24 | Kings v. Penguins UNDER 6 | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 15 h 30 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NHL TOTAL OF THE MONTH The Pittsburgh Penguins are 8-2 to the under in their last 10 games and the total has gone under in eight of Pittsburgh’s last 11 games as a favorite. The total has gone under in eight of the Los Angeles Kings' last 11 games when playing as the underdog. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
|||||||
02-18-24 | Rangers -140 v. Islanders | Top | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 16 h 49 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The red-hot New York Rangers are proving to be just as dangerous on the road as they are at Madison Square Garden. Heading into Sunday's game on a six-game winning streak, they face the Islanders who have had a "rest advantage" with four days off compared to the Rangers' two. However, this extended rest might not necessarily work in the Islanders' favor as they could risk losing focus and getting out of sync. 4* PLAY ON THE RANGERS. |
|||||||
02-18-24 | Niagara v. Quinnipiac -5.5 | Top | 80-66 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 21 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* CBB GAME OF THE MONTH The Quinnipiac Bobcats are 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following an ATS loss, a trend that is applicable for this game as they're coming off a 96-79 loss as a 1.5-point road favorite against Mount St. Mary's. Additionally, the Bobcats are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 Sunday games while the Niagara Purple Eagles are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 Sunday games. 5* PLAY ON QUINNIPIAC. |

02-17-24 | Hurricanes v. Golden Knights -124 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -124 | 23 h 17 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NHL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Vegas Golden Knights have a huge rest advantage as they'll be playing on four days rest while the Carolina Hurricanes will be playing on no rest following a 4-1 win in Arizona last night. This is also somewhat of a revenge spot for the Knights after losing the first meeting of the season 6-3 at Carolina back in December. 4* PLAY ON THE GOLDEN KNIGHTS. |
|||||||
02-17-24 | Illinois v. Maryland +2.5 | Top | 85-80 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 54 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Maryland Terrapins are 14-11 on the season, but 11-3 at home. The Terrapins are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a home underdog and they have dominated Illinois in recent seasons, winning six of the last seven meetings outright while going 5-2 ATS. The Fighting Illini have won four of their last five outright, but they are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 4* PLAY ON THE MARYLAND TERRAPINS. |

02-16-24 | VCU -4 v. St. Louis | Top | 95-85 | Win | 100 | 13 h 30 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The VCU Rams are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite and 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games as a favorite of 0.5-6.5. The Saint Louis Billikens gave the Saint Josephs Hawks a scare in an 87-86 loss as a 10-point underdog in their last game, but note that the Billikens are 6-15-1 ATS in their last 22 games following an ATS win. 4* PLAY ON VCU. |

02-16-24 | Villanova v. Georgetown OVER 139 | Top | 70-54 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 29 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NOVA/GTOWN CBB TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Villanova Wildcats are coming off an 80-54 win over Seton Hall, the third time in their last five games they finished a game with 80 points or more. I think they'll be able to put up a fair amount of points here against the Georgetown Hoyas who are allowing 77.2 points per game. Over is 4-1 in Wildcats last 5 games as a favorite.Over is 8-1 in Hoyas last 9 games as an underdog. 4* PLAY ON THE OVER. |

02-15-24 | Bucks -11 v. Grizzlies | Top | 110-113 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 48 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to fade the Memphis Grizzlies following their upset win over the Houston Rockets last night. They're shorthanded, so playing on no rest will be a big challenge for the Grizzlies who'll face a Milwaukee Bucks team that is looking to bounce back from a humiliating 20+ point home loss against Miami. 4* PLAY ON THE MILWAUKEE BUCKS. |
|||||||
02-15-24 | Stars -128 v. Predators | Top | 9-2 | Win | 100 | 18 h 23 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NHL GAME OF THE MONTH The Dallas Stars are hot with five wins in six games and they are 9-2-1 in their past 12 games. The Nashville Predators are slumping with only three wins in 10 games and they've allowed four goals or more in five straight games. I don't see how they stop a Dallas team that is firing on all cylinders. 5* PLAY ON THE STARS. |

02-14-24 | Hawks -6 v. Hornets | Top | 99-122 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 50 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* HAWKS/HORNETS NBA GAME OF THE WEEK The Atlanta Hawks are coming off a 136-126 loss to the Chicago Bulls, but they are 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS in their last nine games. I think they'll bounce back with a strong outing tonight against a Charlotte Hornets team in a potential letdown spot following back-to-back upset wins over the Memphis Grizzlies and the Indiana Pacers. 5* PLAY ON THE ATLANTA HAWKS. |
|||||||
02-13-24 | Kings v. Suns -4.5 | Top | 125-130 | Win | 100 | 23 h 38 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY Both teams are coming off losses, but I think the Phoenix Suns will be the team to bounce back with a win. The Suns had recorded three impressive wins before losing to a Steph Curry 3-pointer with 2.5 seconds left on the clock on Saturday, and they have had an additional day of rest compared to the Sacramento Kings who lost 127-113 in Oklahoma City on Sunday. 4* PLAY ON THE PHOENIX SUNS. |

02-13-24 | Georgetown v. Creighton -18.5 | Top | 72-94 | Win | 100 | 16 h 19 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* CBB GAME OF THE WEEK The Creighton Bluejays won 77-60 as a 12-point road favorite against Georgetown just over a month ago and they are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a home favorite of 13.0 or greater. 5* PLAY ON CREIGHTON. |

02-12-24 | Spurs v. Raptors OVER 234.5 | Top | 122-99 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 1 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The San Antonio Spurs are 8-2 to the under in their last 10 games, but I think we'll see tonight's matchup against the Toronto Raptors go over the total. I expect a big offensive outing from the home team after being held to 95 points in a loss to Cleveland in their last game. 4* PLAY ON THE OVER. |
|||||||
02-11-24 | 49ers v. Chiefs +2 | Top | 22-25 | Win | 100 | 20 h 22 m | Show |
MIKE'S NINERS/CHIEFS SIDE TOP PLAY I've backed the Chiefs for profits in every game through the postseason, and I think they're undervalued by the betting market once again here in the Super Bowl. Their defense is so underrated, and combine that with a future Hall of Fame quarterback in Patrick Mahomes and you have a team that should not be an underdog to anyone. In addition to backing the Chiefs, I also like the under as I think the defenses will dominate the game. 4* PLAY ON THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS. |
|||||||
02-11-24 | Manchester United v. Aston Villa OVER 3 | Top | 2-1 | Push | 0 | 10 h 51 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* EPL SOCCER TOTAL OF THE MONTH While Aston Villa has been going through a minor slump, they're still capable of scoring. Each of Villa's last three games has seen four goals or more and United has been heating up on the offensive end as well, scoring three goals or more in three consecutive games and two goals or more in each of their last five. I expect both teams to score plenty, similar to as their previous encounter where United came from behind to win 3-2. 5* PLAY ON THE OVER. |

Wildcats are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite of 0.5-6.5. The Gonzaga Bulldogs are coming off a 96-64 win over the Portland Pilots, but they are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games after scoring more than 90 points in their previous game, 6-17-1 ATS in their last 24 games following an ATS win and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog. 5* PLAY ON KENTUCKY. |

02-10-24 | Thunder -1.5 v. Mavs | Top | 111-146 | Loss | -115 | 14 h 40 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Oklahoma City Thunder are coming off an upset loss in Utah on Feb 6, but they are 7-3 in their last 10 games and they'll come into this game well-rested The Mavericks are in a potential letdown spot following a three-game road trip sweep with stops in Philadelphia, Brooklyn and New York, and Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic are listed as questionable for this contest. Mavericks are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. Thunder are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Thunder are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 3 or more days rest. 4* PLAY ON THE THUNDER. |

MIKE'S 4* NUGGETS/KINGS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a great spot to back the Sacramento Kings to get a win following losses to Cleveland and Detroit. They'll host a Denver Nuggets team that will play on no rest after battling it out with the Lakers in LA last night. Nuggets are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 0 days rest. Nuggets are 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a road favorite. Nuggets are 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600.

02-09-24 | Penguins -114 v. Wild | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -114 | 17 h 42 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NHL GAME OF THE WEEK The Pittsburgh Penguins have won nine of the last 10 meetings with the Minnesota Wild. They last faced each other on Dec 17 when the Pens won 4-3 at home, and I think they'll get us a W on the road in Minnesota tonight. The Wild are just 1-6 as home underdogs this season and had problems putting the Chicago Blackhawks away as a -200 favorite in their first game back from the All-Star break while the Pens are coming off an impressive 3-0 win over Winnipeg. 5* PLAY ON THE PENGUINS. |

02-09-24 | Rockets v. Raptors OVER 232 | Top | 104-107 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 12 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Houston Rockets are coming off a 132-129 loss in Indiana while the Toronto Raptors picked up a rare win when they defeated Charlotte 123-117 Wednesday night. The Rockets won 135-106 when they hosted the Raptors a week ago, the fifth straight meeting to go over the total, and I expect this to be another relatively high-scoring affair when they clash Friday night. Over is 16-4 in Raptors last 20 vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Over is 7-1 in Rockets last 8 games as an underdog of 0.5-4.5. Over is 4-1 in Rockets last 5 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game. 4* PLAY ON THE OVER. |

MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK The Chicago Bulls are coming off an upset win over the Minnesota Timberwolves, and while they've struggled with consistency, I still like them to record another win when visiting Memphis Thursday night. Bulls are 41-18-1 ATS in their last 60 games as a favorite of 5.0-10.5. Bulls are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a road favorite. Bulls are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. 5* PLAY ON THE BULLS. |

MIKE'S 4* PELS/CLIPPERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Los Angeles Clippers are coming off a 149-144 win in Atlanta, but I think they're in a tough spot here in their first game back from a seven-game road trip. It's easy to lose focus and relax once back home from a long road swing, and here they'll face a New Orleans Pelicans team that is 12-4 ATS in its last 16 games as an underdog. 4* PLAY ON THE PELICANS. |

02-06-24 | Bucks v. Suns UNDER 244.5 | Top | 106-114 | Win | 100 | 26 h 53 m | Show |
MIKE'S LATE 4* BUCKS/SUNS NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY The Phoenix Suns are coming off three straight games that saw at least 249 points, but I think this game will go under the posted total. The Milwaukee Bucks put up only 108 points in a loss in Utah on Sunday, and they're dealing with injuries with Dame Lillard listed as questionable and Giannis Antetokounmpo listed as probable. Under is 6-1 in Suns last 7 games as a home favorite. Under is 4-0 in Bucks last 4 games as a road underdog. Under is 21-7 in Bucks last 28 games as an underdog of 0.5-4.5. 4* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |

02-05-24 | Kings v. Cavs -5 | Top | 110-136 | Win | 100 | 20 h 1 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Sacramento Kings are 5-1 on a seven-game road trip that will conclude with a matchup against the Cavs in Cleveland Monday night. One must wonder how much gas is left in the tank following impressive wins in Indiana and Chicago, and here they'll face a hot Cavs team that is coming off a 117-101 win in San Antonio. Cavaliers are Cavaliers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as a favorite. As extra motivation, the Cavs will be looking to avenge a double-digit loss to the Kings in Sacramento back in November. 4* PLAY ON THE CAVS. |

MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA GAME OF THE MONTH The Miami Heat are coming off wins over the Sacramento Kings and the Washington Wizards. They came into both games as favorites and covered the spread in the wins, but the Heat are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games as a home underdog and here they'll face an LA Clippers that is on a roll, going 8-2 SU and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games. The Clippers failed to cover the spread in a 136-125 win in Detroit on Friday, but they are still a solid 15-6 ATS in their last 21 games as a favorite and a perfect 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss. The Clippers won 121-104 when the hosted the Heat on January 1 and I think they'll win and cover as a short favorite in Miami tonight. 5* PLAY ON THE CLIPPERS. |

GAME OF THE YEAR ALERT - 5* HORIZON LEAGUE CBB MAX BET The Wright State Raiders will be looking to bounce back from an 88-77 loss as a 3-point favorite against Youngstown State on Feb 1. Here they'll face a Northern Kentucky Norse team that took an 82-52 loss as a 6.5-point underdog to that same Youngstown State team on Jan 28. Wright State had won three on the bounce before that loss and averages 85.7 points per game on the year, which is 9th in the nation in scoring offense while Northern Kentucky has been held to fewer than 60 points in back-to-back games. 5* PLAY ON WRIGHT STATE. |

02-03-24 | Bucks -3.5 v. Mavs | Top | 129-117 | Win | 100 | 23 h 9 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to back the Milwaukee Bucks following road losses in Denver and Portland. In their last game against the Blazers, the Bucks lost 119-116 as a 10-point favorite, and I expect them to come out 100% focused here against a dinged up Dallas Mavericks team. 4* PLAY ON THE BUCKS. |

02-03-24 | Tennessee v. Kentucky +1.5 | Top | 103-92 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 25 m | Show |
SEC GAME OF THE YEAR ALERT - 5* TENNESSEE/KENTUCKY MAX BET The Tennessee Volunteers took a 63-59 loss as a 14-point favorite against the South Carolina Gamecocks in their last game. Can they bounce back with a win against the Kentucky Wildcats Saturday night? Not so fast, as the Wildcats are looking to bounce back from a loss of their own after coming up short in a 94-91 setback as a 7.5-point favorite against Florida. I think the situation combined with the homecourt advantage gives Kentucky a big edge. Volunteers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss. Volunteers are 2-12 ATS in their last 14 road games. Volunteers are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Wildcats are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS loss. Wildcats are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss. 5* PLAY ON KENTUCKY. |

02-02-24 | Princeton +3.5 v. Yale | Top | 64-70 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 51 m | Show |
MIKE'S 4* CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY I like the Princeton Tigers to cover the spread as a short underdog at Yale tonight. They had won six on the bounce before taking an 83-68 loss as a short favorite at Cornell last Saturday. Here they'll face a Yale team that is in a potential flat spot following six consecutive wins and a 7-0 ATS run. 4* PLAY ON PRINCETON. |

02-01-24 | Pacers v. Knicks UNDER 240.5 | Top | 105-109 | Win | 100 | 17 h 14 m | Show |
MAX BET ALERT - 5* NBA TOTAL OF THE WEEK The New York Knicks are 9-1 to the under in their last 10 games. They've ramped up the intensity on the defensive end lately, holding eight of their last 10 opponents to 103 points or fewer. The Indiana Pacers have scored 120+ points in three of their last four games, but I think they'll find it difficult to get good looks against this Knicks team. Under is 7-2 in Pacers last 9 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Under is 9-1 in Knicks last 10 home games. 5* PLAY ON THE UNDER. |
