03-30-22 | Hornets -2 v. Knicks | 125-114 | Win | 100 | 14 h 18 m | Show | |
HORNETS/KNICKS NBA BOOKIE BOMBER This looks like a good spot to fade a Knicks team off four straight victories, the most recent an upset win against Chicago. The Knicks are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 home games and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a home underdog. The Hornets are 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings with NY and 13-3-1 ATS in their last 17 road games. I expect a big game from Charlotte coming off a home loss to the Nuggets. 8* play on Charlotte Hornets. |

03-29-22 | Bulls -3.5 v. Wizards | Top | 107-94 | Win | 100 | 11 h 43 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* BULLS/WIZARDS SIDE BOOKIE BREAKER This looks like a good spot to back the Chicago Bulls off a disappointing loss at New York on Monday. Bulls are 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings in Washington, and they'll face a Wizards team in a potential flat spot coming off back-to-back wins as underdogs, first against Detroit and most recently Golden State. Wizards are 5-17 ATS in their last 22 games following a straight up win and 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win. 10* play on Chicago Bulls. |
|||||||
03-28-22 | Kings +13 v. Heat | 100-123 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 44 m | Show | |
KINGS/HEAT NBA BOOKIE BU$TER While on paper this looks like a reasonable "get right" spot for the Heat following three straight home losses to Golden State, New York and Brooklyn, I don't think a win will come easy for Miami. The Kings are showing no signs of tanking. They've covered the spread in three straight games and they've won the last two outright, at Indiana and Orlando. Kings are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog. Heat are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games overall and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite. Kings are 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings. 8* play on Sacramento Kings. |

03-27-22 | Lakers v. Pelicans -2.5 | 108-116 | Win | 100 | 18 h 29 m | Show | |
LAKERS/PELICANS SIDE The New Orleans Pelicans will be playing on no rest, but expect a big effort from them after taking a disappointing loss to San Antonio last night. Pelicans are 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 games as a favorite and 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Lakers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as a road underdog. 8* play on New Orleans Pelicans. |
|||||||
03-27-22 | Knicks v. Pistons +4.5 | 104-102 | Win | 100 | 15 h 58 m | Show | |
KNICKS/PISTONS SIDE The Detroit Pistons are coming off a disappointing loss as a home favorite against Washington. They are however 14-2 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog and the Knicks are in a letdown spot after back-to-back underdog wins at Charlotte and Miami. Knicks are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a favorite. 8* play on Detroit Pistons. |
|||||||
03-26-22 | Arkansas +4 v. Duke | Top | 69-78 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 46 m | Show |
CBB GAME OF THE WEEK - MIKE'S ARKANSAS/DUKE 10* BEST BET The Arkansas Razorbacks are coming of an upset win against the No. 1 overall seed of the NCAA Tournament (Gonzaga). I think they'll give Duke all kind of problems here on Saturday as Arkansas is not a team you want to step in front of when it is hot. The Razorbacks are 9-1-1 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win and 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up win. The Blue Devils are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall and 2-7 ATS in their last 9 NCAA Tournament games as a favorite. 10* play on Arkansas Razorbacks. |
|||||||
03-26-22 | Bulls v. Cavs -2 | 98-94 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 7 m | Show | |
BULLS/CAVS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER Neither team is trending in the right direction, but the Bulls are currently the worst of the two with losses in five of their last six games. Revenge spot for Cleveland as Chicago won the last meeting and has a 2-1 edge SU and ATS in the season series. The home team has won and covered in each of the last five meetings dating back to last season. Chicago star guard DeMar DeRozan missed the last game due to a mild groin strain. The Bulls are unlikely to sideline him for this one unless absolutely necessary, but I still like the Cavs. 8* play on Cleveland Cavaliers. |
|||||||
03-26-22 | Spurs v. Pelicans -5 | Top | 107-103 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 6 m | Show |
NBA GAME OF THE YEAR - MIKE'S WESTERN CONF SIDE BEST BET This looks like a fantastic spot to fade the San Antonio Spurs coming off a 37-point win as a favorite at Portland. The Spurs are 4-12 ATS in their last 16 games following a ATS win and 6-13 ATS in their last 19 games as an underdog. The Pelicans are 8-2-1 ATS in their last 11 games as a home favorite and 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. This is a revenge game for the Spurs after taking a 124-91 beating by the Pels at home on March 18, but they're under .500 ATS in revenge spots this season. 10* play on New Orleans Pelicans. |
|||||||
03-25-22 | North Carolina +2.5 v. UCLA | 73-66 | Win | 100 | 14 h 54 m | Show | |
MIKE'S UNC/UCLA CBB BOOKIE BREAKER The North Carolina Tar Heels have opened the tourney with a blowout win against Marquette followed by a dramatic OT win against Baylor. They held Baylor to 28-of-81 shooting from the field (35%) while bombing away at 44% clip from behind the arc themselves. UCLA has held Akron and Saint Mary's to 53 and 56 points respectively through its first two games of the tourney, but now it'll face a UNC team that is playing its best basketball of the season when it matters the most. 8* play on North Carolina Tar Heels. |
|||||||
03-25-22 | Jazz v. Hornets +4 | 101-107 | Win | 100 | 12 h 54 m | Show | |
JAZZ/HORNETS SIDE The Charlotte Hornets are 4-1 ATS as home underdogs against teams from the Western Conference this season. They had won five straight before unexpectedly getting slapped around by the Knicks in their last game. I expect the Hornets to bounce back with a strong effort, especially on the defensive end, and the Jazz are only 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite. Under is 9-2 in Hornets last 11 games as a home underdog. Under is 6-0 in Jazz last 6 games as a road favorite. 8* play on Charlotte Hornets. |
|||||||
03-25-22 | Wizards v. Pistons -2.5 | Top | 100-97 | Loss | -115 | 12 h 53 m | Show |
WIZARDS/PISTONS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Detroit Pistons are coming off yet an upset win against Atlanta and they are 14-2 ATS in their last 16 games overall. While they tend to do better as underdogs and failed to cover in their last game as a favorite, note that the Pistons are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite. The Wizards have lost eight of their last 9 games and they are likely to be gassed after taking yet another beating at Milwaukee last night. Wizards are 6-23-1 ATS in their last 30 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. 10* play on Detroit Pistons. |
|||||||
03-24-22 | Arkansas +9.5 v. Gonzaga | Top | 74-68 | Win | 100 | 11 h 60 m | Show |
ARKANSAS/GONZAGA CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Gonzaga Bulldogs had to come from behind to beat ninth-seeded Memphis in the previous round of the NCAA tournament. They have had a tendency to play down to their competition lately. The Bulldogs are 1-6-1 ATS in their last eight games and now they'll face an Arkansas team that held New Mexico State to 48 points on 14-of-51 shooting in its last game. The Razorbacks are 14-5-1 ATS in their last 20 games overall, 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as an underdog and 11-1-1 ATS in their last 13 games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game. 10* play on Arkansas Razorbacks. |
|||||||
03-23-22 | Warriors v. Heat -6 | Top | 118-104 | Loss | -115 | 17 h 45 m | Show |
WARRIORS/HEAT NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a great spot to back the Miami Heat to snap back from a disappointing loss to a Philly team without Embiid and Harden a couple of nights ago. The Warriors are also coming off a bad loss, as a favorite at Orlando last night, but I think they'll struggle to match the Heat's intensity as they'll be playing on no rest. Heat are 10-3-1 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up loss and Warriors are 1-6 ATS in the last 7 meetings. 10* play on Miami Heat. |
|||||||
03-23-22 | Knicks +7 v. Hornets | 121-106 | Win | 100 | 10 h 20 m | Show | |
KNICKS/HORNETS SIDE This looks like a great spot to back the New York Knicks to snap back from three straight ATS losses. They are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. The Hornets tend to do better as underdogs and on the road. They are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a home favorite and 4-12-1 ATS in their last 17 home games overall. 8* play on New York Knicks. |
|||||||
03-23-22 | Hawks v. Pistons +5.5 | 101-122 | Win | 100 | 10 h 19 m | Show | |
HAWKS/PISTONS SIDE This looks like a tough spot for the Hawks who will be playing on no rest off a win at New York Tuesday night. The Detroit Pistons lost outright as a near double-digit favorite against Portland in their last game, but the Pistons are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog and the Hawks are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite, 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a road favorite. 8* play on Detroit Pistons. |
|||||||
03-21-22 | Wolves v. Mavs -3 | 108-110 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 40 m | Show | |
WOLVES/MAVS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER Great spot to back the Mavs who return home from a five-game road trip that ended with back-to-back losses at Philadelphia and Charlotte. The Mavericks are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up loss and while the Wolves have been winning lately, they've mostly done so as favorites. Timberwolves are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog and 4-9 ATS in the last 13 meetings with Dallas. 8* play on Dallas Mavericks. |
|||||||
03-21-22 | Heat v. 76ers | Top | 106-113 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 42 m | Show |
HEAT/SIXERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a great spot to fade the Philadelphia 76ers who will play their third game in four days and on no rest. They came out flat in a 93-88 home loss to Toronto yesterday, and I would not be surprised if they opted to rest several of their starters for this game. Joel Embiid will almost surely sit this one out as his back is acting up and he was a game-time decision for yesterday's game. The Heat are on a roll, and 7-0-1 ATS in their last 8 road games, 10-2 ATS in their last 12 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and 6-2-1 ATS in the last 9 meetings with the Sixers. 10* play on Miami Heat. |
|||||||
03-21-22 | Pelicans +7 v. Hornets | 103-106 | Win | 100 | 11 h 9 m | Show | |
PELICANS/HORNETS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER Great spot to fade the Charlotte Hornets who are coming off four straight wins. In their last game the Hornets defeated the Mavs by 20+ points, but they are still only 4-11-1 ATS in their last 16 home games and the Pelicans are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games as a road underdog. Additionally, the Pelicans are 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Charlotte. 8* play on New Orleans Pelicans. |
|||||||
03-20-22 | Iowa State v. Wisconsin -4.5 | 54-49 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 10 m | Show | |
IOWA STATE/WISCONSIN CBB BOOKIE BREAKER The Wisonsin Badgers just barely failed to cover the spread against Colgate in the first round, winning by seven as a 7.5-point favorite. Colgate was able to stay in the game by shooting lights out from behind the arc (10-of-22 for 45%), but Iowa State does not pose much of a threat from 3-point land. The Badgers are asked to cover a smaller number here, and I expect them to run away with this game. The Cyclones are in a tough spot off an upset win against LSU and I'm not sure they've had enough time to reset and recharge. 8* play on Wisconsin. |
|||||||
03-20-22 | Houston v. Illinois +4.5 | Top | 68-53 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 49 m | Show |
CBB MAJOR WAGER - MIKE'S 10* GAME OF THE MONTH The Houston Cougars opened the tournament with a comfortable 82-68 victory over UAB while Illinois just barely escaped a first-round upset against Chattanooga. I think that'll be to the Illini's advantage here though as they're already in survive and advance mode while Houston is at risk of expecting this to be another easy win. Everyone will be high on Houston and low on Illinois after the two teams' most recent outings, pushing the value towards the Fighting Illini. 10* play on Illinois Fighting Illini. |
|||||||
03-19-22 | Pistons +8 v. Cavs | 109-113 | Win | 100 | 17 h 57 m | Show | |
PISTONS/CAVS SIDE The Detroit Pistons are a sensational 12-1 ATS in their last 13 games and here they'll get a Cleveland team that is playin on 0 days rest off an OT win against Denver last night. Cavaliers are 0-5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 0 days rest. 8* play on Detroit Pistons. |
|||||||
03-18-22 | Bulls v. Suns -5.5 | 102-129 | Win | 100 | 15 h 35 m | Show | |
BULLS/SUNS SIDE The Phoenix Suns are riding a three-game winning streak through which they have scored 140, 131 and 129 points. Suns are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game and over is 20-6 in Suns last 26 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. Bulls are 1-8 ATS in their last 9 games overall and they took a 125-110 loss at Utah in their last game. Over is 6-1 in Bulls last 7 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points and Bulls are 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 road games. 8* play on Phoenix Suns. |
|||||||
03-18-22 | Wizards v. Knicks -5.5 | 97-100 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 2 m | Show | |
WIZARDS/KNICKS SIDE The New York Knicks are coming off a 128-98 triumph over Portland. Knicks are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games overall and 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. Wizards are losers of five straight SU and ATS and 4-22-1 ATS in their last 27 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. 8* play on New York Knicks. |
|||||||
03-18-22 | Mavs +3 v. 76ers | Top | 101-111 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 31 m | Show |
MAVS/SIXERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Dallas Mavericks have won eight of their last nine games and they are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog. They failed to cover the spread when they defeated the Nets with a buzzer beater last time out, but the Mavs are 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games following a ATS loss. 76ers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as a home favorite and Mavericks are 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings. Under is 16-5 in 76ers last 21 vs. a team with a winning straight up record and 18-7 in Mavs games against Eastern Conference teams this season. Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings. 10* play on Dallas Mavericks. |
|||||||
03-17-22 | Marquette v. North Carolina -3.5 | 63-95 | Win | 100 | 12 h 11 m | Show | |
MARQUETTE/NORTH CAROLINA BOOKIE BREAKER The 24-9 North Carolina Tar Heels should get the win and cover here against the 19-12 Marquette Golden Eagles. North Carolina really heated up down the stretch and won six in a row before coming up short against eventual champion Virginia Tech in the semifinals of the ACC Tournament. Marquette on the other hand lost five of its final eight contests and covered the spread in only one of those eight games. Golden Eagles are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 neutral site games as an underdog. Tar Heels are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 neutral site games as a favorite. 8* play on North Carolina Tar Heels. |
|||||||
03-17-22 | Michigan v. Colorado State +1.5 | 75-63 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 47 m | Show | |
SUPER EARLY MICHIGAN/COLORADO STATE BOOKIE BU$TER The 17-14 Michigan Wolverines lost as a 3-point favorite against Indiana in the first round of the Big Ten tourney. The 25-5 Colorado State Rams were bounced by San Diego State in the Mountain West Tournament. Sure, Michigan's record is unimpressive because it has played one of the nation's toughest schedules, but this team is nowhere near as good as the one that reached the Elite Eight last season while Colorado State has one of its best teams in school history. I think the Rams will be the hungrier side. 8* play on Colorado State. |
|||||||
03-16-22 | Mavs v. Nets | 113-111 | Win | 100 | 12 h 26 m | Show | |
MAVS/NETS NBA BOOKIE BU$tER The Dallas Mavericks are riding a four-game winning streak, and I like them here in a revenge spot after taking a loss to the Nets when they hosted them back in December. The Nets are in a potential flat spot after winning 150-108 at Orlando last night. Kyrie Irving put up 60 points, but he's not allowed to play home games for Brooklyn. Nets are 4-21-1 ATS in their last 26 home games. Mavericks are 6-0-1 ATS in their last 7 road games. 8* play on Dallas Mavericks. |
|||||||
03-16-22 | Bryant +3 v. Wright State | 82-93 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
MIKE'S BRYANT/WRIGHT STATE FIRST FOUR BOOKIE BOMBER This is basically a home game for Wright State as while the venue is not Nutter Center, it's still played in Dayton, Ohio, but I think the line has moved too much from the opener to not take a stab at a Bryant team that is 12-4 ATS in its last 16 games. These are two very evenly matched teams, but Bryant has a quite significant advantage when it comes to rebounding which could be crucial down the stretch in a tight game. 8* play on Bryant. |
|||||||
03-15-22 | Indiana v. Wyoming +4 | 66-58 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 0 m | Show | |
INDIANA/WYOMING FIRST FOUR BOOKIE BU$TER I'm happy to take the points with Wyoming as an underdog against Indiana in their First Four matchup on Tuesday in Dayton, Ohio. The Cowboys are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games as an underdog and they've had an extra day of rest compared to Indiana. The Hoosiers are 1-7 ATS in the third game of a 3-in-5 days situation, and Wyoming's aggressive defense will stop them from getting easy looks. 8* play on Wyoming Cowboys. |

03-14-22 | Raptors -5 v. Lakers | 114-103 | Win | 100 | 14 h 9 m | Show | |
LATE-NIGHT RAPTORS/LAKERS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER This looks like a tough spot for the Lakers who will be playing on no rest after taking a 140-11 loss at Phoenix last night. The Toronto Raptors will be looking to stay hot as they close out a five-game road trip. They're coming off three impressive wins, at San Antonio, at Phoenix, and at Denver and the Raptors are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games as a road favorite. Additionally, the Raptors are Raptors are 10-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Los Angeles. 8* play on Toronto Raptors. |

03-14-22 | Hornets -8.5 v. Thunder | Top | 134-116 | Win | 100 | 12 h 41 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* HORNETS/THUNDER NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a dominant 142-120 win at New Orleans on Friday to improve to 14-5 ATS in their last 19 games as a road favorite. They've had the weekend off and are 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 2 days rest. Here they'll face a Thunder team that has the second-worst record in the West and off five straight losses. The Thunder are 2-5-2 ATS in their last 9 home games and the Hornets are 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings in Oklahoma City. 10* play on Charlotte Hornets. |

03-13-22 | Lakers v. Suns -8.5 | 111-140 | Win | 100 | 17 h 22 m | Show | |
LATE-NIGHT LAKERS/SUNS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER Great spot to fade the LA Lakers off a double-digit win over Washington. Lakers are 6-22 ATS in their last 28 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 10-25 ATS in their last 35 games following a ATS win. The Suns have covered the spread in each of the last five meetings. 8* play on Phoenix Suns. |

03-13-22 | 76ers -12.5 v. Magic | Top | 116-114 | Loss | -110 | 10 h 47 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a great spot to fade the Magic off back-to-back wins as sizeable underdogs. The Magic are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following a straight-up win and here they'll face a Sixers team in a get right spot after getting humiliated by Brooklyn in its last game. 76ers are 5-0-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a double-digit loss at home and 12-3 ATS in their last 15 games following an ATS loss. 76ers are 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings. |

03-13-22 | Clippers v. Pistons +5 | 106-102 | Win | 100 | 11 h 23 m | Show | |
CLIPPERS/PISTONS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER The Detroit Pistons have been money against the spread lately while the Clippers are not at their very best at the moment, losing three of their last four games straight up. Clippers are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 road games vs. a team with a losing home record. Pistons are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games overall. 8* play on Detroit Pistons. |

TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY Tough spot for the Cleveland Cavaliers who will be playing on no rest after taking a 117-105 loss at Miami last night. They are 4-8 ATS when playing on zero days rest for the season and 9-3 to the under. The Chicago Bulls are coming into this game off two days rest since defeating the Nuggets in Denver on Wednesday. The Bulls are 21-7 ATS in their last 28 games as a home favorite. Under is 6-1 in Bulls last 7 overall. Under is 6-2 in Cavaliers last 8 games as a road underdog. 10* play on Chicago Bulls. |

MIKE'S INDIANA/IOWA BIG TEN BOOKIE BREAKER The Iowa Hawkeyes have opened the Big Ten Tournament with dominant wins over Northwestern and Rutgers. The Indiana Hoosiers on the other hand have prevailed as underdogs in two close contests, and one must wonder how much gas is left in the tank. The Hawkeyes are shooting the ball extremely well right now and I think the Hoosiers will find themselves a couple of steps behind all game. 8* play on Iowa Hawkeyes. |

03-11-22 | Pistons +14 v. Celtics | 103-114 | Win | 100 | 17 h 40 m | Show | |
FRIDAY NIGHT PISTONS/CELTICS BOOKIE BU$TER The Detroit Pistons have surprisingly enough shown no signs of tanking. They are 9-0 ATS in their last 9 games overall (all as underdogs) and 7-0 ATS in the last 7 meetings with Boston. The Celtics have also been hot lately, but this is a lot of points to cover. The Celtics are coming off a 115-101 blowout win at Charlotte, but they are only 9-25-1 ATS in their last 35 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 8* play on Detroit Pistons. |

SUPER EARLY INDIANA/ILLINOIS BIG 12 BOOKIE BLA$TER The Indiana Hoosiers opened the Big Ten tournament with a come-from-behind win over Michigan on Thursday. I think they're in for a much tougher matchup here against a top-seeded Illinois team that is going for its second straight Big Ten tournament title. The Fighting Illini are only 2-6 ATS over their last eight games overall, but they destroyed the Hoosiers with a 74-57 win at Indiana back on February 5. The Hoosiers are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 8* play on Iillinois Fighting Illini. |

NBA MAJOR WAGER - MIKE'S WARRIORS/NUGGETS GAME OF THE WEEK The Golden State Warriors covered the spread as an 8-point underdog here at Denver on March 7 in a game where they rested their whole regular starting lineup. I expect a much better outing from the Warriors here as a road favorite after losing each of the first three meetings with Denver this season straight up. This time they're catching Denver at a good time, with the Nuggets on no rest following a 106-00 win at Sacramento last night. 10* on Golden State Warriors. |

TOP-RATED 10* NCAAB PLAY OF THE DAY The Utah State Aggies opened the Mountain West tournament with an unsurprising blowout win against Air Force. Now they'll face a much tougher opponent in the Colorado State Rams who will be well-rested as they enter the tournament. Colorado State won both regular-season meetings, by five and 11 points. The Rams have the edge on both ends of the court and they can bomb away from three in away the Aggies are just not capable of. 10* play on Colorado State Rams. |

WIZARDS/CLIPPERS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Los Angeles Clippers will be playing on no rest, but I don't think that will be an issue as they must be looking forward to get back on the court after taking a beating by the Warriors last night. The Clippers have matched up well against Washington in recent seasons, going 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings overall and 5-0 ATS in the last five home at Crypto.com Arena. The Wizards are coming off a 133-123 win against Indiana, but they are only 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS win. 10* play on Los Angeles Clippers. |

MIKE'S LATE-NIGHT CLIPPERS/WARRIORS BOOKIE BU$TER The Golden State Warriors rested their whole regular starting lineup in a loss at Denver last night. They're all expected to back for this matchup with the Clippers, and I expect a big game from the Warriors stars as they look to avenge a 119-104 loss to the Clippers from last month. 8* play on Golden State Warriors. |

03-08-22 | Suns -7.5 v. Magic | Top | 102-99 | Loss | -110 | 12 h 28 m | Show |
MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY The Phoenix Suns will be looking to snap back from a 132-122 loss at Milwaukee. They are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as a road favorite. This looks like a solid bounce back spot against a Magic team that is 2-7 ATS in its last 9 games as an underdog and 4-14-1 ATS in their last 19 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of greater than .600. 10* play on Phoenix Suns. |

03-07-22 | Lakers v. Spurs -2 | Top | 110-117 | Win | 100 | 14 h 8 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY LeBron James put up 56 points when the Los Angeles Lakers recorded a 124-116 upset win against the Warriors on Saturday. I think there's a good chance the Lakers will come out flat tonight as they're 7-19 ATS off a win and 0-4 ATS off a win as an underdog for the season. The Spurs are 9-4 ATS as a home favorite and they're coming into this game looking to end a three-game slide. 10* play on San Antonio Spurs. |
|||||||
03-07-22 | Wright State v. Cleveland State | 82-67 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 37 m | Show | |
MIKE'S MONDAY NIGHT CBB BOOKIE BU$TER The Cleveland State Vikings had lost back-to-back games before closing out the regular season with a dominant victory over Robert Morris. Now it'll face Wright State in the college basketball Horizon League Semifinal at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum, and I like Cleveland State to win. Cleveland State defeated Wright State 71-67 on the road back in late January and it has covered the spread in five of the last six meetings. 8* play on Cleveland State Vikings. |
|||||||
03-06-22 | Knicks v. Clippers -4 | Top | 116-93 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 25 m | Show |
MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The New York Knicks have dropped seven consecutive games straight up and they covered the spread in only one of those losses. They are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games as a road underdog and 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games as an underdog overall. The LA Clippers are riding a five-game winning streak and they have covered the spread in seven of their last eight games. 10* play on Los Angeles Clippers. |
|||||||
03-04-22 | Pacers -3.5 v. Pistons | 106-111 | Loss | -110 | 16 h 13 m | Show | |
MIKE'S PACERS/PISTONS TGIF NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER Let's be clear; this edition of the Indiana Pacers is by no means a good basketball team. This is more a fade of the Detroit Pistons who will be playing their third game in four nights and on no rest following an upset win at Toronto last night. This will be Detroit's third game of the season playing on no rest and off a win; they're 0-2 in the previous two games. 8* play on Indiana Pacers. |
|||||||
03-03-22 | Kings v. Spurs -6.5 | Top | 115-112 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 28 m | Show |
NBA MAJOR WAGER - MIKE'S 10* GAME OF THE WEEK This looks like an extremely tough spot for the Sacramento Kings who will play their fourth straight road game, third game in four nights and on no rest after taking a 125-95 loss at New Orleans last night. The Spurs? They last played on February 28 when they took a 118-105 loss at Memphis. This will be Spurs' first home game since the All-Star break and I expect them to come out swinging. Spurs are 7-0-1 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record, 6-1-1 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite and 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games playing on 2 days rest. Kings are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games as a road underdog. 10* play on San Antonio Spurs -1.5. |

03-02-22 | Connecticut -4 v. Creighton | Top | 62-64 | Loss | -110 | 14 h 56 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* CBB PLAY OF THE DAY The No. 18 Connecticut Huskies are only 1-4-1 ATS over their last five games, but I expect them to come through for us with a big performance here against Creighton Wednesday night. This is a revenge spot for the Huskies after taking a 59-55 home loss as a double-digit favorite against Creighton a month ago. The Bluejays took a 72-51 beating at Providence in their last game, and while UConn has struggled to cover spreads, note that it has won five in a row straight up. Covering a short line like this should not be a problem. 10* play on Connecticut Huskies. |
|||||||
03-02-22 | Heat +4.5 v. Bucks | Top | 119-120 | Win | 100 | 14 h 35 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Miami Heat dominated the Bulls at home in their last game. I like the Heat to stay hot and keep it close here on the road at Milwaukee Wednesday night. The Heat are 5-0-1 ATS in their last six road games, and the Bucks have not been at their very best lately. Sure, the Bucks beat Charlotte 130-106 in their last game, but they had lost four of their last five straight leading up to that game. The Bucks are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game and 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games following a straight up win. 10* play on Miami Heat. |

03-01-22 | Florida +1 v. Vanderbilt | Top | 82-78 | Win | 100 | 14 h 41 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* FLORIDA/VANDERBILT SEC PLAY OF THE DAY Florida won the first meeting of the season 61-42 as a 6.5-point home favorite on January 22. I have no doubt they can complete the sweep of the season-series when visiting Vanderbilt Tuesday night. The Commodores have covered the spread in each of their last eight games, but they have lost four of their last five straight up. Florida is the better team and tends to do well as a favorite/pick'em. 10* play on Florida Gators. |
|||||||
03-01-22 | Hawks v. Celtics -6.5 | Top | 98-107 | Win | 100 | 13 h 44 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* HAWKS/CELTICS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Boston Celtics took a 21-point loss as close to a double-digit favorite at Indiana on Sunday. They are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a ATS loss, and now they'll host an Atlanta team that is 1-5 ATS in its last 6 games as a road underdog and 5-16 ATS in its last 21 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Boston won 105-95 when the Hawks came to town on February 13. I expect them to win and cover in this one as well. 10* play on Boston Celtics. |
|||||||
02-28-22 | Northwestern +10.5 v. Iowa | Top | 61-82 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 8 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* CBB BIG TEN BOOKIE BREAKER This looks like a good spot to back a Northwestern team that must be rather disappointed with itself after losing four of its last five games. In their last game, the Wildcats lost 67-60 as a 2.5-point underdog at PSU. The Wildcats are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following an ATS loss and 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog. The Hawkeyes look like they're peaking at the right time, but this is too many points to cover. 10* play on Northwestern Wildcats. |

TOP-RATED 10* BULLS/HEAT NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Chicago Bulls took a 118-102 loss here at Miami on December 11, but they are still 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings in Miami. I like them to come through with a much better performance tonight. The Bulls took a 116-110 home loss to Memphis in their last game. They are 16-8 ATS coming off an ATS loss on the season and the Heat are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite. 10* play on Chicago Bulls. |

02-27-22 | Mavs +4.5 v. Warriors | Top | 107-101 | Win | 100 | 15 h 40 m | Show |
NBA GAME OF THE MONTH - MIKE'S MAVS/WARRIORS BEST BET This looks like a great spot to back the Mavs who most likely have had this game circled since taking a 130-92 loss here at Chase Center on January 25. In their last game, the Mavs lost at Utah. They are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog. The Warriors are coming off a 132-95 win at Portland. The Warriors are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games following a ATS win and 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite. 10* play on Dallas Mavericks. |

CLIPPERS/ROCKETS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER The LA Clippers are 5-0 ATS over their last five games and won 105-103 against the Lakers Friday night. Clippers are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games playing on 1 days rest, Clippers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up win and the reeling Rockets are 7-24 ATS in their last 31 games as an underdog. 8* play on Los Angeles Clippers. |

ILLINOIS/MICHIGAN BIG TEN BOOKIE BU$TER Illinois won by 15 points when it hosted Michigan back in January. I expect another big performance from the Illini here after taking a loss as a home favorite against Ohio State in their last game while Michigan is coming off a victory over Rutgers. Wolverines are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight-up win and 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games following an ATS win. 8* play on Illinois Fighting Illini. |

02-26-22 | Grizzlies +1 v. Bulls | 116-110 | Win | 125 | 19 h 36 m | Show | |
GRIZZLIES/BULLS NBA HARDWOOD HAMMER I really like backing the Grizzlies off a loss at Minnesota while Chicago defeated Atlanta in its last game. Grizzlies are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 games as an underdog. (or pick'em) and 11-5 ATS in their last 16 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Bulls are 7-17 ATS in their last 24 home games vs. a team with a winning road record. 8* play on Memphis Grizzlies. |

02-26-22 | Wizards v. Cavs -7 | 86-92 | Loss | -110 | 19 h 34 m | Show | |
WIZARDS/CAVALIERS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER This looks like a tough spot for the Washington Wizards who will be playing on no rest following a double-overtime loss to San Antonio last night. The Wizards are 6-15-1 ATS in their last 22 road games while the Cavaliers are 13-5-1 ATS in their last 19 home games, and I think we'll see a focused home team after taking an L in Detroit Thursday night. 8* play on Cleveland Cavaliers. |
|||||||
02-26-22 | Purdue v. Michigan State +5 | 65-68 | Win | 100 | 10 h 25 m | Show | |
PURDUE/MICHIGAN STATE CBB BOOKIE BU$TER The Michigan State Spartans took a 20+ point loss at Iowa in their last game and they are only 1-6 ATS over their last seven games, but I think the betting market has them undervalued when hosting Purdue Saturday afternoon. Both teams have something to play for, but I think the Spartans will be the more motivated side as they need to pick up wins to keep their hopes of an NCAA Tournament bid alive. 8* play on Michigan State. |
|||||||
02-25-22 | Heat -4.5 v. Knicks | Top | 115-100 | Win | 100 | 20 h 55 m | Show |
MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Miami Heat have matched up well against the Knicks in recent seasons.

02-25-22 | Raptors -2.5 v. Hornets | 93-125 | Loss | -105 | 17 h 0 m | Show | |
TGIF NBA HARDWOOD HAMMER The Charlotte Hornets were hot garbage during the final stretch leading up to the All-Star break. The Toronto Raptors on the other hand went into the All-Star break on a 9-2 run, and they covered the spread in eight of their last 10 games. Raptors are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games and the Hornets are 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 home games. Additionally, the Raptors have already defeated the Hornets twice this season, both times by double-digits. 8* play on Toronto Raptors. |

02-24-22 | Grizzlies -2.5 v. Wolves | Top | 114-119 | Loss | -110 | 15 h 1 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Memphis Grizzlies had won six straight prior to losing as a 12-point home favorite against Portland in the last game prior to the All-Star break. They clearly lost focus after a big run, but I expect them to get off to a fast start following the break. Minnesota lost three of five leading up the break. Grizzlies are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games as a favorite and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games as a road favorite. Timberwolves are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog. Grizzlies are 17-5 ATS in the last 22 meetings. Grizzlies are 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings in Minnesota. 10* play on Memphis Grizzlies. |

02-23-22 | Duke -4 v. Virginia | Top | 65-61 | Push | 0 | 20 h 33 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* CBB PLAY OF THE DAY This is a revenge spot for the Blue Devils after losing the first meeting of the season by one point as an 11-point home favorite on Februry 7. Duke has won four straight since that loss, and it is 4-1 ATS in its last 5 road games. Virginia has won two of three since defeating Duke, but this looks like a potential flat spot after winning at Miami as an underdog on Saturday. Cavaliers are 7-16-1 ATS in their last 24 games following a ATS win and 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight up win. 10* play on Duke. |

TOP-RATED 10* CBB PLAY OF THE DAY The Saint Joseph's Hawks are just 1-8 SU on the road this season but 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games as a road underdog. In their last game, the Hawks took a 72-62 beating by Dayton. The Hawks are 26-12 ATS in their last 38 games following a double-digit loss at home, and here they'll face a Billikens side that has lost three of its last four games straight up. 10* play on St. Joe's. |

02-21-22 | Penn State v. Maryland -2.5 | 61-67 | Win | 100 | 11 h 12 m | Show | |
MIKE'S PENN STATE/MARYLAND BIG TEN BOOKIE BREAKER The Penn State Nittany Lions are coming off a 67-46 home win against Minnesota, but it's worth noting that they had lost on the road to that same Gophers team less than a week earlier. The Lions are only 1-7 SU on the road on the season, and here they'll face a Maryland team that is desperate to string a couple of wins together after ending a five-game losing streak with a win at Nebraska on Friday. 8* play on Maryland Terrapins. |

02-20-22 | Washington State +5.5 v. USC | 60-62 | Win | 100 | 13 h 12 m | Show | |
MIKE'S SUNDAY NIGHT WASHINGTON STATE/USC BOOKIE BLA$TER The Washington State Cougars have lost four straight and they took a 76-56 beating at UCLA in their last game, but they are still a solid 5-3 SU on the road this season. The Cougars are 9-4-1 ATS in their last 14 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600, and here they'll face a USC team that is 2-9 ATS in its last 11 home games. The Trojans have been hot lately, but they won by only two points when these two teams clashed back in December. 8* play on Washington State Cougars. |

MIKE'S LATE-NIGHT OREGON/ARIZONA CBB BOOKIE BLA$TER The Oregon Ducks have failed to cover the spread in four straight games, but they are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games as a road underdog. The Arizona Wildcats are coming into this game riding a seven-game winning streak, but the Wildcats are only 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite. I think the oddsmakers are giving Arizona too much respect in this one. 8* play on Oregon Ducks. |

MIKE'S MARYLAND/NEBRASKA TGIF MONEYMAKER This looks like a great spot to back an angry Maryland team coming off five straight losses.

02-17-22 | Utah +4.5 v. Stanford | 60-56 | Win | 100 | 18 h 1 m | Show | |
LATE-NIGHT UTAH/STANFORD CBB BOOKIE BREAKER The Utah Utes are a winless 0-9 SU on the road this season, but they covered the spread in a loss at Colorado in their last outing to make it 3-0 ATS over their last three games. I think the Utes are undervalued here against a Stanford team that ended a two-game slide with a 76-65 road triumph over Oregon State on Saturday. Cardinal are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win. Utes are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS win. Utah is 4-2 ATS in the lst six meetings. 8* play on Utah Utes. |

They've covered the spread in each of their last five games, and here they'll face a struggling Lakers team off three consecutive losses. This is also a revenge spot for the Jazz after taking a 101-95 loss here in LA on January 17. 8* play on Utah Jazz. |

MIKE'S SPURS/THUNDER NBA BOOKIE BREAKER This looks like a great spot to back the San Antonio Spurs as they return home from a four-game road trip and look to snap back from a loss at Chicago. The Spurs are 17-9 ATS off an ATS loss on the season and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as a favorite. The OKC Thunder avoided a sixth consecutive loss with an OT win at New York on Monday. I think they'll find it difficult to reload for this one. 8* play on San Antonio Spurs. |

Pelicans are 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and still only 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 home games.

SUPER EARLY CREIGHTON/GEORGETOWN CBB TOP PLAY OF THE DAY This looks like a good spot to back the Georgetown Hoyas who are completely undervalued by the betting market after losing their last 12 games straight up and failing to cover the spread in each of their last four. Creighton is coming off a 54-52 victory over Butler but could not cover the 7.5-point spread.

They've defeated Portland, Clippers and Lakers convincingly in the previous three, but all as favorites. Bucks are 8-19 ATS in their last 27 games as an underdog and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a road underdog. The Suns are the hottest (and arguably the best) team in the league.

For the season, the Suns are 7-1 ATS in their third straight road game and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points.

NBA MAJOR WAGER - MIKE'S 10* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK The New Orleans Pelicans have answered a four-game losing streak with back-to-back wins. They are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games as a favorite and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 road games. The Houston Rockets have lost five of their last six games.

02-06-22 | Celtics -8 v. Magic | 116-83 | Win | 100 | 13 h 11 m | Show | |
CELTICS/MAGIC SIDE The Boston Celtics have won six of their last seven games. They're still only in eighth place in the East so they can not afford to take their foot off the gas. Here they'll face a Magic team that will be playing on short rest after taking a 135-115 beating by Memphis last night. The Magic are 6-16 ATS as home underdogs this season. The Celtics are perfect 4-0 ATS as road favorites of five points or more. 8* play on Boston Celtics. |

02-05-22 | Thunder +6.5 v. Kings | 103-113 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 36 m | Show | |
THUNDER/KINGS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER The Sacramento Kings have lost eight of their last nine games straight up and they are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as a home favorite. The OKC Thunder will be playing on no rest after winning 96-93 as a 5.5-point underdog at Portland Friday night, but I don't think fatigue will be an issue. Thunder are 21-6-2 ATS in their last 29 games following a ATS win. Thunder are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games as a road underdog. Thunder are 18-6 ATS in their last 24 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. 8* play on Oklahoma City Thunder. |

SATURDAY AFTERNOON CBB BOOKIE BU$TER The Texas Tech Red Raiders are 5-16 ATS in their last 21 games as a road favorite. I think they'll struggle here against a West Virginia team looking to snap a six-game losing streak. In their last game, the Mountaineers lost by only four points as a 12-point dog at Baylor. Mountaineers are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 games as a home underdog and the home team is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. 8* play on West Virginia. |

02-04-22 | Rockets v. Spurs -3 | 106-131 | Win | 100 | 17 h 8 m | Show | |
FRIDAY NIGHT ROCKETS/SPURS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER The San Antonio Spurs took a 112-95 beating by Miami last night. They are 5-5 ATS in all second legs of a back-to-back set on the season but 4-1 ATS when playing on no rest and facing a conference opponent. I expect to see a much better game from the Spurs here against their rívals the Rockets who are coming off an upset win against Cleveland. The Rockets are still only 6-17 ATS in their last 23 games as an underdog and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 8* play on San Antonio Spurs. |

MIKE'S FRIDAY NIGHT CBB BOOKIE BLA$TER The Cornell Big Red are perfect 7-0 SU at home on the season. They covered the spread in all five lined games and they are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 games as an underdog. The Princeton Tigers lost 80-74 as a 3-point favorite to against Yale in their last game. Princeton is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 games following an ATS loss and 1-5 ATS in its last 6 games as a favorite. 8* play on Cornell Big Red. |

HEAT/SPURS 10* NBA BOOKIE BREAKER TOP PLAY The Miami Heat will be looking to snap back from a couple of losses. They're 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up loss and 4-1-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings with the Spurs who are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games as an underdog. San Antonio has had major issues on the defensive end all season and I expect the Heat to run away with this one. This is also a potential look-ahead spot for the Spurs with a matchup against Houston on deck tomorrow. 10* play on Miami Heat. |

02-03-22 | Tennessee Tech +11.5 v. Morehead State | 68-75 | Win | 100 | 5 h 49 m | Show | |
MIKE'S THURSDAY AFTERNOON CBB BOOKIE BLA$TER Morehead St. Eagles are only 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a home favorite, and here they'll face a Tennessee Tech that should be fired up following 70-56 home loss to this very same Morehead St. team on Jan 31. Tennessee Tech could not have played much worse, and we should see a much better effort today. The Golden Eagles are 19-8 ATS in their last 27 games following a double-digit loss at home. 8* play on Tennessee Tech. |

02-02-22 | Cavs -2.5 v. Rockets | Top | 104-115 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 28 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Houston Rockets took a 122-108 beating by Golden State on Monday. They've now lost four in a row, and in the last three they've been outscored by an average of just under 20 points per game. The Cavs are a bit banged up but they still have enough talent to beat Houston. 10* play on Cleveland Cavaliers. |

02-02-22 | Grizzlies -3.5 v. Knicks | 120-108 | Win | 100 | 13 h 32 m | Show | |

Both Steph Curry and Andrew Wiggins logged a decent amount of minutes, Warriors are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. Warriors are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games following a ATS win. 8* play on San Antonio Spurs. |

02-01-22 | Heat +2.5 v. Raptors | Top | 106-110 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 32 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY
Both teams will be playing on no rest, and I think heavy legs on defense will open up for a high-scoring game. The Heat are 6-2 to the over when playing on 0 days rest this season and over is 20-6 in their last 26 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. I also think we'll see a reaction from the Miami players after putting up only 92 points in a blowout loss at Boston last night. Over is 7-1 in Raptors last 8 games as a home favorite. |
|||||||
01-31-22 | Heat +3.5 v. Celtics | Top | 92-122 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 59 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY Great spot to back the Miami Heat to snap back from a disapointing triple overtime loss to the Raptors at home on Saturday. Heat are 7-0 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss, 13-3 ATS in their last 16 games as an underdog and 9-2 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Boston. The Celtics just rebounded from a bad loss themselves, by winning 107-97 at New Orleans on Saturday. They've been inconsistent all season, and 3-12-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a ATS win. 10* play on Miami Heat. |

MIKE'S TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Utah Jazz have lost four in a row and eight of their last 10. In their last game, the Jazz took a 119-109 loss at Memphis. They are only 3-14-2 ATS in their last 19 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game and 8-18-1 ATS in their last 27 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. The Wolves will be looking to snap back from a pair of underdog losses at Golden State and Phoenix. The Wolves are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up loss and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 Sunday games. |

01-30-22 | Blazers v. Bulls -6 | 116-130 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show | |
SUNDAY AFTERNOON BLAZERS/BULLS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER This looks like a great spot to back the Bulls to rebound from a 131-122 loss at San Antonio while Portland is in a potential let down spot coming off a 15-point win at Houston. The Bulls will have to do without Lonzo Ball and Alex Caruso, but the Blazers are far from full strength as well and they're simply not a very good basketball team without Dame Lillard on the floor. Trail Blazers are 5-11 ATS in their last 16 games as a road underdog. Bulls are 23-11-1 ATS in their last 35 games as a favorite. Bulls are 16-5 ATS in their last 21 Sunday games. 8* play on Chicago Bulls. |

TOP-RATED 10* SIXERS/LAKERS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY The Philadelphia 76ers took a 117-107 loss as a double-digit favorite against New Orleans in their last game. They are perfect 6-0 ATS in their last six games off an ATS loss and 9-2 ATS in their last 11 after failing to cover the spread by 10 points or more. The Lakers are coming off a 106-96 win at Brooklyn, but they are still only 6-14 ATS in their last 20 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and they're 1-5 ATS in the last six meetings with the Sixers. 10* play on Philadelphia 76ers. |
