On average, the Bucks are scoring 121.2 points while allowing 107.6 points per game.

Although Pekka Rinne has won a team-leading 10 games in net for Nashville, he’s allowed 2.99 goals per game with an .893 save percentage.

50* Powerhouse Play on Falcons +11 -110 A difficult season for the Falcons (4-9) will get even worse if Atlanta can’t pull off the upset against the 49ers (11-2) in San Francisco later today. Atlanta earned only a single win through their first eight games, but they’ve been better in the second half of the season by winning three of their last five.

San Francisco may be the best team in the NFC, but they’ve shown some weakness recently. Out of their last six games, the 49ers have won by more than a 10-point margin just once. The San Francisco defense is coming off a game in which they allowed 46 to New Orleans. On average, the 49ers are scoring 31 points per game on 402 yards per game while allowing 18 points per game on 294 yards.

50* Powerhouse Play on Troy State +8 -110 While the Chattanooga Mocs (6-5) aim to stay above .500, the Troy State Trojans (4-6) want to climb back to an even record. These two teams will go head to head later today. Troy has done the vast majority of their winning since the end of November. The Trojans have won three games in a row by getting the better of Shorter, North Alabama, and Jacksonville State. Troy allowed 63 points or fewer in every game over their current winning streak. On average, the Trojans are scoring 70.2 points while allowing 68.6 points per game. Darian Adams is one of three Troy players who are averaging at least 10 points per game.

The Mocs have lost two of their last three with only a cupcake game against Tennessee Wesleyan in between. Chattanooga was beat by 10 points by Western Carolina, then by five points against Virginia Tech. On average, the Mocs are scoring 69.2 points while allowing 67.3 points per game.

50* Powerhouse Play on Panthers +6½ -115 The Seahawks (10-3) still have a shot at the NFC West title. Today, they’ll go into Carolina to take on the Panthers (5-8). The first test for Seattle in this contest will be adjusting after flying across the country for an east coast kick off. After winning five straight, the Seahawks are coming off a relatively surprising loss to the Rams. Seattle could only manage 12 points in that matchup while giving up 28. On average, the Seahawks are scoring 26 points per game on 404 yards of offense while allowing 25 points per game on 387 yards. The MVP race is getting away from Russell Wilson, who hasn’t thrown for 250 yards in any of his last five games. Against the Rams last week, Wilson threw for 245 yards with no TDs and one pick. Carolina has lost five in a row, but they’ve had decent offense output over their last three. After putting up 31 points against New Orleans, the Panthers scored at least 20 points against Washington and Atlanta. Carolina also hosted a west coast team in Week 1, when they fell by just three to the Rams. On average, the Panthers are scoring 23 points per game on 374 yards of offense while allowing 28 points per game on 394 yards. Carolina no longer has Ron Rivera at the helm, but they still have Christian McCaffrey in the backfield. On the season, McCaffrey has rushed for 1,220 yards and 12 touchdowns while averaging five yards per carry. |

50* Powerhouse Play on Bears/Packers under41 -110 An early afternoon clash between a pair of NFC North foes will feature the Bears (7-6) taking on the Packers (10-3) in Green Bay. The over/under is set at 41 points. After a 17-7 loss to the Rams, Chicago has gone on a run of three straight wins over the Giants, Lions, and Cowboys. However, the Bears haven’t been very proficient on offense this year. In eight of Chicago’s 13 games, they failed to score more than 20 points. On average, the Bears are scoring 19 points per game on 306 yards of offense while allowing 18 points per game on 343 yards. A big part of the reason for Chicago’s offensive struggles is the lack of a running game. Neither David Montgomery or Tarik Cohen are averaging more than 3.5 yards per carry. Green Bay has earned the first position within the NFC North, but the defense has done much of the heavy lifting so far this year. The Packers have held opponents to 16 points or fewer in six of their 10 victories. Meanwhile, the Green Bay offense has failed to score more than 21 points on five occasions. On average, the Packers are scoring 24 points per game on 358 yards of offense while allowing 21 points per game on 385 yards. Aaron Rodgers has been closer to average than elite for much of the year. The Green Bay quarterback hasn’t thrown for 250 yards in five games. |

Through 25 games, the Heat have lost only seven times. But Miami will be on the road this evening, which is where six of those seven losses occurred. The Heat will be playing the back end of a back-to-back after falling to the Lakers last night. On average, the Heat are scoring 111.9 points while allowing 106.4 points per game. Jimmy Butler is leading the Heat in scoring with 20.7 points per game. Goran Dragic has added 15.9 points per game, but he’s currently out of the lineup. Dallas will be on an extra day of rest compared to this evening’s opponent. They last played Detroit, whom the Mavericks beat by a score of 122-111. Dallas has won six of their last seven and 11 of their last 13 games. Dallas has scored 121 or more in three of their last four contests. On average, the Mavericks are scoring 118.1 points while allowing 108.4 points per game. Luke Doncic is in the thick of the MVP race, and it’s because he’s averaging 30.4 points, 9.9 rebounds, and 9.3 assists per game, all of which lead the Mavericks. |

Palmieri leads New Jersey with 11 goals, and Coleman is adding another nine. The Coyotes lead their division and have won four of their last six games, but they’ve lost three in a row with Antti Raanta minding the net. Raanta has allowed 11 total goals in his last three games. Arizona has lost two of their last four games. On average, the Coyotes are scoring 2.68 goals per game (23rd) while allowing 2.35 goals per game (3rd).

The Purple Aces scored as few as 59 points and gave up as many as 85 points in defeats to SMU, East Carolina, and George Washington.

On average, the Broncos are scoring 78.5 points while allowing 65.6 points per game. Forward Guglielmo Caruso leads this Santa Clara team with just 11.3 points per game, but he’s been remarkably efficient. On top of shooting 50% from three, Caruso is shooting 70% from the field. |

Including an overtime win against Winnipeg, Dallas has allowed three total goals over their last three games. On average, the Stars are scoring 2.59 goals per game (26th) while allowing 2.31 goals per game (1st). The strength of this Dallas team is clearly the defensive side of the game. A huge deal of credit for the Stars’ top ranking in that regard must go to goaltender Ben Bishop, who’s allowing just 2.03 goals per game with a .934 save percentage. |

On average, the Red Wings are scoring 2.13 goals per game (31st) while allowing 3.97 goals per game (31st). One of very few bright spots on this Detroit team has been Tyler Bertuzzi, who leads the team with 15 assists. In addition to those assists, Bertuzzi has scored 10 goals and owns a team-high 25 points. Winnipeg enters tonight’s contest as losers of two of their past four games. In defeats to the Kings and Stars, the Jets failed to score more than two goals. Most recently, Winnipeg won a 3-2 game over Anaheim on Sunday. On average, the Jets are scoring 2.83 goals per game (19th) while allowing 2.70 goals per game (T-7th). Winnipeg’s lack of scoring has held them back from becoming a dominant team.

50* Powerhouse Play on Rockets -12 -109 While the Rockets (15-7) have aspirations of earning a trip to the NBA Finals, the Kings (9-13) are much less of a threat. Tonight, these two teams will face off in Houston. Sacramento was able to take down Dallas by four points yesterday, but they previously lost three straight to the Bulls, Trail Blazers, and Spurs. While only managing to score 106 points or fewer in two of those losses, the Kings gave up 113 to Chicago and 127 to Portland. On average, the Kings are scoring 105.1 points while allowing 108.5 points per game. Sacramento doesn’t have the luxury of having an MVP candidate. Instead, they’re led by the 21.2 points per game of guard Buddy Hield.

After a run of eight straight wins, Boston dropped an overtime game to Chicago and a 4-1 contest to Colorado. They’ll now look to recover against one of the worst teams in the Atlantic. While scoring at least three goals in seven of their last 10 games, Boston has allowed two goals or fewer in seven of those games as well. On average, the Bruins are scoring 3.50 goals per game (5th) while allowing 2.30 goals per game (2nd). Offensively, Boston is led by the 18 goals, 26 assists, and 44 points of left winger Brad Marchand. Defensively, the Bruins are happy with both goaltenders, who own .929 or better save percentages while allowing 2.22 goals per game or fewer. Ottawa is a bad team that’s getting worse. A recent 5-2 win over Edmonton was the Senators’ only victory out of their last seven games. Ottawa has given up four goals or more in three of those seven losses, and were hammered in a 7-2 loss to Minnesota. On average, the Senators are scoring 2.63 goals per game (T-23rd) while allowing 3.13 goals per game (21st). Although Anders Nilsson leads the team with seven wins, he’s allowing 3.10 goals per game. |

The Cyclones have now won two of their last three, including a 104-89 victory over Alabama. On average, the Cyclones are scoring 82.8 points while allowing 71 points per game.

50* Powerhouse Play on Wizards +7½ -109 The big chink in the armor for the Clippers (16-7) is their 3-6 record on the road. They’ll try to improve that mark today when they go into Washington D.C. to take on the Wizards (7-14). Each of Los Angeles’ last four defeats have come on the road. Most recently, the Clippers have lost two of their last four games. In both of those defeats, Los Angeles could only muster 97 and 91 points while giving up 107 or more to San Antonio and then Milwaukee. On average, the Clippers are scoring 114.4 points while allowing 108.3 points per game. Although Kawhi Leonard leads the team with 24.5 points per game, he led the Clippers with only 19 and 17 points in those two recent road losses.

On average, the Wizards are scoring 118.1 points while allowing 121.9 points per game.

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Hornets -2 -110 A pair of teams with losing records will go head to head in a late afternoon tip when the Hornets (9-15) host the Hawks (5-17) in Charlotte. Atlanta has been poor pretty much everywhere, but especially on the road where they own a record of 2-9. In fact, the Hawks have lost seven away games in a row. If not for Monday’s win against the Warriors, Atlanta would be on an 11-game losing streak. On average, the Hawks are scoring 108 points while allowing 117.8 points per game. Atlanta has been dreadful on the defensive end of the floor. In eight of their last 12 games, the Hawks have allowed 122 points or more. And they’ve allowed 150 or more in two of them. Charlotte will be at home, where they’ve earned five of their nine wins. The Hornets have hit a decent stretch of performances by winning three out of their last six. Charlotte recently held Golden State to 91 in a comfortable win. On average, the Hornets are scoring 105.4 points while allowing 112.8 points per game.

They’ll go head to head in Jacksonville on Sunday afternoon. The over/under is set at 43 points. Los Angeles has dropped each of their last three games while failing to put up more than 24 points. Away from home, the Chargers have scored more than 20 points in just two of six games. Most recently, Los Angeles was defeated by Denver by a score of 23-20. On average, the Chargers are scoring 20 points per game on 375 yards of offense while allowing 20 points per game on 322 yards. Although Philip Rivers threw for 265 yards and two touchdowns last week against the Broncos, he also tossed a pick and the Chargers coughed up a fumble. Jacksonville has struggled on the offensive side of the ball this year, and it’s shown over their current four-game losing streak. The Jags have scored just 13 points or more in five games so far this season. Most recently, Jacksonville could only muster 11 points against Tampa Bay. On average, the Jaguars are scoring 18 points per game on 377 yards of offense while allowing 24 points per game on 381 yards. The running game has been severely lacking for Jacksonville this year. In three of their past four games, Leonard Fournette rushed for 40 yards or fewer. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Ducks +150 While the Jets (17-10-2, 36 points) are just one point behind Dallas for third in the Central, the Ducks (12-13-4, 28 points) are ahead of only LA in the Pacific. These two will face off today in Winnipeg. Before Friday’s 3-2 loss to Washington, Anaheim was able to net four goals in a win over Los Angeles. The Ducks have now scored three goals in three of their last five games. Defensively, Anaheim hasn’t given up more than three goals in three straight. On average, the Ducks are scoring 2.66 goals per game (23rd) while allowing 2.97 goals per game (T-14th). John Gibson has been the better goaltender for the Ducks. While racking up eight wins, Gibson has allowed 2.86 goals per game with a .910 save percentage. Winnipeg was able to come out victorious the last time they faced the Ducks, but they’ve currently lost two of their last three games. After dropping a 2-1 contest to the Kings, the Ducks failed to defeat the Stars in a game that went to overtime. On average, the Jets are scoring 2.83 goals per game (19th) while allowing 2.72 goals per game (T-8th). Nikolaj Ehlers is the top goal scorer on Winnipeg with 13 so far this season. Ehlers has also assisted on 10 goals for 23 points on the year. |

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Lions/Vikings under43½ -109 The Vikings (8-4) will have a chance to better their Wild Card chances on Sunday when they host the Lions (3-8-1) in Minnesota. The over/under is set at 43.5 points. What appeared to be a promising start to the season has taken a bad turn for Detroit, and their current five-game losing streak has ended any playoff hopes. Over those five losses, the Lions have scored more than 20 points only twice. Detroit has scored 16 points or fewer in each of their last two away games. On average, the Lions are scoring 23 points per game on 394 yards of offense while allowing 26 points per game on 411 yards. With both Matthew Stafford and Jeff Driskel out with injuries, the Detroit offense will be run by third-stringer David Blough. Last week, Blough threw for 280 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. Minnesota fell to Seattle by seven a week ago, but the Vikings won both previous games against Dallas and Denver. Minnesota is 5-0 at home, and much of that success has to be attributed to the team’s defense. While at home, Minnesota has held three opponents to 14 points or fewer. On average, the Vikings are scoring 27 points per game on 389 yards of offense while allowing 20 points per game on 368 yards. After a big performance against the Cowboys, running back Dalvin Cook has run for just 29 yards or fewer in each of his last two games. |

In the Jacksonville game, Sacar Anim led the way with 19 points. Kansas State has only dropped two games, but those defeats came in back-to-back fashion against Pittsburgh and Bradley just before a win over Florida A&M in their most recent contest. Kansas State has only scored 62 points or fewer in three of their last four games. On average, the Wildcats are scoring 65.3 points while allowing 58.4 points per game. Beyond Xavier Sneed and Cartier Diarra, no Kansas State player is scoring more than 8.4 points per game. |

Guard Devin Booker leads the Suns in scoring with 25 points per game, and he’s coming off one of his best performances of the season. Against New Orleans, Booker dropped 44 points to help his team to victory. Scoring points is almost never a probably for Houston, especially at home where they’re 8-2 on the year. Only a two-point loss to San Antonio is keeping the Rockets from winning four straight. Houston has failed to score more than 119 points in two of their last four games. On average, the Rockets are scoring 120.8 points while allowing 115.2 points per game. James Harden just doesn’t stop scoring. Thus far, his 38.7 points per game lead the NBA.

50* Powerhouse Play on Pacific +1 -110 This college basketball season has offered two very different beginnings for the Pacific Tigers (8-3) and the Long Beach State 49ers (3-6). These two teams will go head to head today. It took Boise State three overtimes to take down Pacific on November 23rd. If that result had gone the Tigers’ way, they would now be winners of seven in a row. Instead, Pacific is currently riding a three-game winning streak in which they held every opponent to 59 points or fewer. On average, the Tigers are scoring 69.7 points while allowing 58.7 points per game. While Pacific’s general formula for winning revolves around a strong defensive effort, they have two solid scorers. Jahlil Tripp is scoring 12.5 points per game while shooting 50.5% from the field, and Justin Moore is hitting 50% of his threes on his way to 10.7 points per game. Long Beach State hasn’t yet strung together two straight wins. Most recently, the 49ers have lost two in a row and three out of their last four. In each of those three losses, Long Beach State allowed 88 points or more. On average, the 49ers are scoring 71.1 points while allowing 79.1 points per game.

The Sabres are pulling it together after a rough stretch of games. Buffalo has now won two of their last four, and could easily be just one game removed from a four-game winning streak if a pair of overtime games had gone their way. The Sabres recently scored seven goals against New Jersey. On average, the Sabres are scoring 3.00 goals per game (T-14th) while allowing 2.97 goals per game (T-15th). Linus Ullmark has picked up his game in goal for Buffalo. Thus far, Ullmark is allowing 2.94 goals per game with a .914 save percentage to earn seven wins. Center Jack Eichel leads the team with 18 goals and 21 assists for 39 points. The Canucks are in danger of slipping into another rough patch after losing three of their last five. In one of those losses, Vancouver allowed eight goals to Pittsburgh. The Canucks have scored two goals or fewer in three of their last six games. On average, the Canucks are scoring 3.24 goals per game (8th) while allowing 2.93 goals per game (14th).

After the five Hofstra players who are scoring at least 10 points a game, there’s a sharp drop off in offensive production. The sixth man on the Pride is averaging just five points per contest.

The Lakers have been proficient on offense, scoring at least 114 points in four of their last six games. On average, the Lakers are scoring 112.3 points while allowing 103.3 points per game.

The over/under is set at 47 points. With a win against Oregon, the Utes would give themselves a great chance of earning one of four playoff spots. Thus far, Utah has lost only to USC back in September. Since then, they’ve won eight in a row, and have held nine of their 12 opponents to 15 points or fewer. On average, the Utes are scoring 36 points per game on 453 yards of offense while allowing 11 points per game on 241 yards. The Utah offense is led by quarterback Tyler Huntley, who’s thrown for 2,773 yards, 16 touchdowns, and two interceptions. However, Huntley has failed to top 214 yards in seven games this year.

100* Sharp Money Syndicate Play on Magic -3 -110 Despite a poor road record of 2-7, a win over the Cavaliers (5-15) in Cleveland this evening would earn the Magic (10-11) a .500 record for the season. Orlando seems to be getting it together after a 2-6 start to the year. Coming into tonight’s contest, the Magic are winners of their last three and four of their last five. Each of those four wins have come by four points or more, and Orlando has scored at least 116 points in three of them. On average, the Magic are scoring 103.5 points per game while allowing 103.4 points per game. Evan Fournier has come on very strong as a scoring threat lately, as he’s led the Magic in scoring in four of their last five games. On the season, Fournier is scoring 19.8 points per game. Cleveland has only managed victories in a quarter of their games so far this year, and their current run of four straight losses hasn’t helped in that endeavor. While the first of those losses came by just two, each of the remaining three defeats came by a margin of nine points or more. On average, the Cavaliers are scoring 104.2 points while allowing 112.8 points per game. Cleveland continues to struggle for offense. Collin Sexton leads the team with his 18.1 points per game. |

Tonight, they’ll face off in New York. The Canadiens began the season well enough, but have since hit one of the worst stretches of play for any team in the NHL. Over their last 10 games, Montreal has won only a single contest. The Canadiens have allowed three goals in eight of those 10 games, and have allowed five goals or more in four of them. On average, the Canadiens are scoring 3.21 goals per game (10th) while allowing 3.45 goals per game (28th). Carey Price has won the most games (11) for Montreal from between the pipes, but he’s allowing 3.13 goals per game and owns a save percentage of just .899. Just like the Canadiens, the Rangers will be playing their second game in as many nights. Unlike Montreal, New York earned a victory yesterday in a 3-2 game against Columbus. New York has now won five of their last seven games while holding their opposition to two goals or fewer in all but one of those victories. On average, the Rangers are scoring 3.22 goals per game (9th) while allowing 3.26 goals per game (23rd).

Rhode Island owns the better record of tonight’s two opponents, but they’ve dropped two of their past three games. After falling to LSU by 13, the Rams beat Manhattan and then lost to West Virginia by five. Rhode Island has allowed 86 points or more in two of their last three games. On average, the Rams are scoring 73.9 points while allowing 71.9 points per game. Rhode Island is led by the 21.1 points per game of Fatts Russell. |
