CBB BOOKIE BU$TER

Fairleigh Dickinson is on a roll, coming into this game on a five-game winning streak and off an 88-80 win as a short underdog at Central Connecticut State. The Knights are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games and here they'll face a Stonehill team that has been held to 62, 51, and 47 points in its last three games. The Skyhawks are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 home games vs. a team with a losing road record and I don't see how they can keep pace with FDU in this one. 

8* PLAY ON FAIRLEIGH DICKINSON. 

NBA TOTAL GAME OF THE MONTH - 10* MAJOR WAGER

The Pacers have struggled defensively all season and they took a 130-112 loss to Memphis in their last game. The over is 9-3 in Pacers last 12 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game and 24-11-1 in Pacers last 36 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The Bucks took a 111-95 loss at Miami in their last game, but the over is 8-2 in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a losing road record.

10* PLAY ON OVER. 

10* THUNDER/NETS NBA BEST BET

Since the start of last season, the Nets are 15-35 ATS as home favorites. They put up only 98 points in a loss to Boston in their last game. That was their first game without Kevin Durant for at least two weeks, and I think they're in for another tough game here against an OKC team that is 40-18 ATS as road underdogs since the start of last season. In their last game, the Thunder won 124-110 at Chicago and they are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points.

10* PLAY ON OKC THUNDER. 

MAVS/BLAZERS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER - 10:10 PM ET

The Mavs have dominated the Blazers in recent seasons. They've won six straight games and by an average of 25 points. The Mavericks are 15-5-1 ATS in the last 21 meetings in Portland.

8* PLAY ON DALLAS MAVERICKS.

ACC GAME OF THE YEAR - 10* CBB MAJOR WAGER

This should be a riveting matchup between two of the best teams in the ACC when the 13-4 NC State Wolfpack host the 14-2 Miami-Florida Hurricanes. I like the Canes as a short road dog.

NC State is coming off back-to-back upset wins agaisnt Duke and at Virginia Tech, but they are still only 4-12-1 ATS in their last 17 games following an ATS win and just 6-23 ATS in their last 29 Saturday games. The Hurricanes are 20-7 ATS in their last 27 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.

I see yuuuuuuge value on Miami-FL as an underdog. 

10* PLAY ON MIAMI-FL. 

SUNS/WOLVES NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

This looks like a good spot to back Minnesota to bounce back from a humbling 135-118 loss in Detroit. They had won and covered the spread in four straight games prior to that setback, and they are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home games. Motivation should be on Minnesota's side after dropping the first two meetings of the season, and even though they're missing some key pieces, the Suns' injury situation is even worse. 

8* PLAY ON MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES. 

THUNDER/BULLS NBA BOOKIE BA$HER

This looks like a good spot to back the Bulls to bounce back as they return back home following losses at Boston and Washington. The Thunder have one of the best ATS records in the league, but this looks like a potential flat spot following their upset in Philly last night. 

DeMar DeRozan is listed as doubtful and Zach LaVine is listed as probable, but I expect the Bulls to come out hot no matter who's on the floor for them and this is a revenge game for Chicago after dropping the first meeting of the season. 

8* PLAY ON CHICAGO BULLS. 

CAVS/BLAZERS NBA BOOKIE BOMBER

I like the Cavs to get the win and cover in Portland Thursday night. The Cavs will be looking to bounce back from a 116-114 loss as a short favorite at Utah. The Cavs hope to have veteran point guard Ricky Rubio on the court for the first time this season and they'll want to get him started with a W. Portland is 0-4 ATS in its last 4 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

8* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

MAVS/LAKERS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Lakers saw their five-game winning streak come to an end with a 122-109 loss at Denver on Monday. The Mavs are coming off a 113-101 loss at LA Clippers, but they are 18-6 ATS in their last 24 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points while the Lakers are 2-11 ATS in their last 13 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The Mavericks are 5-0-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings.

8* PLAY ON DALLAS MAVERICKS. 

HORNETS/RAPTORS NBA BOOKIE BLA$TER

This looks like a terrific spot to fade the Raptors after them making a season-best 20 3-pointers in their 132-120 win against Charlotte on Tuesday. Raptors are 8-17 ATS in their last 25 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. Raptors are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. Hornets are 3-1-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points.

8* PLAY ON CHARLOTTE HORNETS. 

MINNESOTA/OHIO STATE CBB BOOKIE BOMBER

Both Minnesota and Ohio State are coming off back-to-back losses. The difference is that the Gophers covered the spread in their setbacks while the Buckeyes didn't. Without any kind of momentum, I think the Buckeyes will find it difficult to pull away in this one. 

8* PLAY ON MINNESOTA. 

CBB BOOKIE BU$TER

Louisville is coming into this game on a five-game losing streak, but no one can accuse the Cardinals of not trying and they've covered the spread in each of their last four games. They'll face a Clemson team that is in a potential flat spot following back-to-back upset wins at Virginia Tech and Pittsburgh. 

8* PLAY ON LOUISVILLE. 

10* BUCKS/HAWKS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a tough spot for the Hawks who will play their first home game of the season as they return home from a four-game trek through the west coast. They closed out the trip with a 112-108 win at LA Clippers on Sunday but the Hawks are 8-24 ATS in their last 32 games following an ATS win and 16-36 ATS in their last 52 games following a straight up win.

The Bucks showed great character when they came from behind to beat the Knicks in their last game, and this game will mean a lot to them after losing the first two meetings of the season to Atlanta. 

10* PLAY ON MILWAUKEE BUCKS. 

LATE-NIGHT WYOMING/UTAH STATE BOOKIE BREAKER - 10:30 PM

Wyoming is coming into this game 5-10 on the season and off five straight losses, but their last three games have been decided by 5, 1, and 5 points and they are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Utah State took an 82-59 beating on the road at Boise State in their last game. The Aggies are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up loss of more than 20 points and I'm not as keen to bet on college kids to bounce back from bad losses as I am with the pros. Additionally, Wyoming is 4-0-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. 

8* PLAY ON WYOMING COWBOYS. 

NBA GAME OF THE MONTH - 10* ATS MAX BET

The Sixers have won three of their last four and defeated the Pistons 123-11 in Detroit just a couple of days ago. Now they'll host Detroit at Wells Fargo Center where the Sixers are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 games and they are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. Pistons are 1-8 ATS in the last 9 meetings in Philadelphia.

10* PLAY ON PHILADELPHIA 76ERS. 

BUCKS/KNICKS TOTAL 

With the Knicks riding a four-game winning streak and the Bucks trading wins and losses over their last six games, recency bias might have you believe that these are two evenly matched teams but that is not the case IMO. Even without injured Middleton, the Bucks are the superior side and I expect a strong effort from them here after giving up 138 points in a home loss to Charlotte Friday night. The Bucks won 119-108 at home on Oct 28 and 109-103 here in NY on Nov 30.

10* CAVS/SUNS NBA TOP PLAY

This looks like a good spot to fade the reeling Suns who are coming off five straight losses. They're not the same team without injured  All-Star Devin Booker, and injuries to Cam Johnson and Cameron Payne is not making it any easier. The Cavs will be looking to bounce back from a 121-108 loss at Denver. Cavaliers are 5-1-2 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points.

10* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

IOWA/RUTGERS CBB BOOKIE BREAKER - 12:00 PM ET

This looks like a good spot to fade Rutgers who is at risk at coming out flat following five straight wins SU and ATS, including an impressive underdog win at Purdue. Iowa is coming into this game off a win over Indiana which ended a three-game slide. Hawkeyes are 14-6 ATS in their last 20 Sunday games. Scarlet Knights are 0-3-1 ATS in their last 4 Sunday games. Underdog is 8-2-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings.

8* PLAY ON IOWA. 

GRAND CANYON/STEPHEN F AUSTIN CBB BOOKIE BLA$TER

Spot bet on Grand Canyon as this line has moved way too much off the opener. Lumberjacks are 3-9 ATS in their last 12 home games. Antelopes are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 road games.

8* PLAY ON GRAND CANYON. 

LATE NIGHT HAWKS/LAKERS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Lakers defeated Miami 112-109 here in LA a couple of nights ago, despite giving LeBron James the night off. Lebron is likely to be back in the lineup tonight, but the Lakers are 21-43-1 ATS in their last 65 games following a straight up win and I think they're in for a tough game here against a Hawks team looking to go on a run after ending a four-game slide with a win at Sacramento Wednesday. 

8* PLAY ON ATLANTA HAWKS. 

LATE NIGH HEAT/SUNS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Suns have scored only 102, 104, 83 and 88 points over their last four games, all losses. They're really struggling without injured Devin Booker who has missed the last five games for the Suns. Heat are 12-2 ATS in the last 14 meetings in Phoenix.

8* PLAY ON MIAMI HEAT. 

10* KNICKS/RAPTORS NBA TOTAL PLAY OF THE DAY

The Knicks have held their last three opponents to 88, 83 and 114 points. The Raptors have struggled on the offensive end all season long and they put up only 101 points in an OT loss to Milwaukee on Wednesday. 

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY

I expect an honest effort from the Celtics here following back-to-back losses at Denver and Oklahoma City. They took a 150-117 beating by the Thunder Tuesday night and the Celtics are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game and 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. The Mavs are on a seven-game winning streak but only 6-13-1 ATS in their last 20 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record and the Celtics are 12-5 ATS in the last 17 meetings in Dallas.

10* PLAY ON BOSTON CELTICS. 

LATE NIGHT HEAT/LAKERS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Lakers are 3-1 in their last four games, but this looks like a tough spot for them as they return home from a five-game road trip. They won 121-115 as a short underdog at Charlotte last time out, but the Lakers are only 3-8-1 ATS in their last 12 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days. The Heat are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings and they won 112-98 when they hosted Lakers on Dec 28. 

8* PLAY ON MIAMI HEAT. 

ROCKETS/PELICANS UNDER

Houston is one of the lowest-scoring teams in the NBA, but they've clamped down defensively in recent games holding the Knicks to 108 points and Dallas to 111 points. Under is 20-6 in Rockets last 26 vs. a team with a winning straight up record and the Pels have scored just 101 and 111 points in their last two games. 

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

NBA GAME OF THE WEEK - 10* MAX BET ALERT

The Nets are the hottest team in the league and 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings with the Bulls in Chicago. The Bulls are coming off back-to-back setbacks and their OT loss at Cleveland a couple of days ago must have hurt. Bulls are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up loss and 2-7 ATS in their last 9 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

10* PLAY ON BROOKLYN NETS

PACERS/SIXERS TOTAL

The Pacers have scored 122 points or more in four straight games, but here they'll run into one of the best defensive teams in the league. The Sixers are holding opponents to 108.3 ppg and under is 8-2 in 76ers last 10 vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

WIZARDS/BUCKS NBA TOTAL BOOKIE BREAKER

The Wizards are on a roll. They're coming into this game on a five-game winning streak and they scored 116 points or more in each of those games. They won 118-95 here at Milwaukee on New Year's Day and I expect the Bucks to show much more on the offensive end in this one. 

Over is 8-2 in Bucks last 10 home games. Over is 46-19-1 in Wizards last 66 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.

8* PLAY ON OVER. 

TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY

The Cavs won by only one point when they faced the Bulls in Chicago on New Year's Eve. We can however note that they are 15-4 SU on the season and 15-6-1 ATS in their last 22 home games. The Bulls are one of the worst teams in the league at defending the 3-point shot and Cleveland is shooting the ball well at home.

10* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

10* CELTICS/NUGGETS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

Two of the hottest teams in the league will clash at Ball Arena on New Year's Day. While the Nuggets might be the hottest of the two, the Celtics it without a doubt in my mind the better of the two teams. 

Celtics are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Celtics are 22-8-1 ATS in their last 31 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Celtics are 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings.

SIXERS/PELS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

This looks like a good spot to fade the Pels following their hard-fought win against Minnesota on Wednesday. They've now won four in a row while the Sixers will be looking to bounce back from a loss at Washington. 

76ers are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. 76ers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following an ATS loss. 76ers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up loss.

8* PLAY ON PHILADELPHIA 76ERS. 

10* WOLVES/BUCKS BOOKIE BREAKER

Both the Wolves and the Bucks are coming into this game on four-game losing streaks. I expect Bucks guard Jrue Holiday to be back in the lineup after missing Wednesday's loss to the Bulls because of a non-COVID illnes. The Bucks have been cold from behind the arc lately, but here they'll face a Minnesota team that ranks 26th in the league at defending the three. 

Bucks are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 home games vs. a team with a road winning % of less than .400. Timberwolves are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.

10* PLAY ON MILWAUKEE BUCKS. 

BUCKS/BULLS NBA 3-PACK

8* PLAY ON MILWAUKEE BUCKS. 

NETS/HAWKS NBA 3-PACK

The Nets are coming into this game riding a nine-game winning streak, and I like them to stay hot against an Atlanta team that will be playing on no rest following a loss at Indiana Tuesday night. Trae Young exited early with a calf contusion and the Hawks are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 games playing on 0 days rest.

I also like the under as the under is 12-4 in Hawks last 16 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600 and 11-4 in Nets last 15 vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

NBA GAME OF THE MONTH - 10* NUGGETS/KINGS BEST BET

The Nuggets are 7-1 in their last seven games, but I think this looks like a good spot to fade them following their OT win against Phoenix on Christmas Day. The Kings on the other hand will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing outing in a loss to Washington, even with star Domantas Sabonis questionable with a right hand injury. 

Nuggets are 5-15 ATS in their last 20 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game. Kings are 16-6 ATS in their last 22 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. Nuggets are 2-7 ATS in the last 9 meetings.

10* WARRIORS/KNICKS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Warriors are coming off a 126-110 win at Toronto, but this looks like a tough spot as they'll play their fifth game on a six-game road trip and the first half of a back-to-back set with the Nets on deck tomorrow. Steph Curry is out until mid-January and Klay Thompson is listed as questionable due to left knee soreness. The Knicks on the other hand are healthy and coming into this game on a seven-game win streak SU and ATS.

10* LATE NIGHT NBA TOTAL TOP PLAY

The Kings are averaging 117.8 ppg which is the second best mark in the NBA and the Hornets are on of the worst defensive teams in the league, but I think this total is way inflated. So far this season, games with a total of 235 points or more are 27-14 to the under. 

Under is 5-2 in Kings last 7 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days. Under is 5-2-1 in Hornets last 8 games playing on 0 days rest.

8* PLAY ON UNDER. 

KINGS/PISTONS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

This looks like a tough spot for the Pistons following a high-paced OT loss in Charlotte on Wednesday. They'll face a Kings team that is 7-1 ATS in its last 8 road games vs. a team with a losing home record and 4-1-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Detroit.

KINGS/SIXERS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

This looks like a good spot to back the Kings to bounce back from a 112-99 loss in New York. They are still a solid 16-9 ATS on the season and 15-5 ATS in their last 20 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The 76ers are 9-0 ATS in their last 9 home games but in a potential flat spot following back-to-back double-digit wins. 

8* PLAY ON SACRAMENTO KINGS. 

CAVS/SPURS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Cavs have struggled to cover spreads on the road, but I like them to win comfortably here against a Spurs team that is 2-9 ATS in its last 11 games overall and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games. Additionally, while the Spurs are coming off back-to-back wins, note that they had lost 11 straight contests prior to this mini-winning streak. The Spurs are not a good team and I think they might come out completely flat here after a couple of upsets.

8* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

10* NBA GAME OF THE WEEK - CELTICS/WARRIORS BEST BET

The Celtics have opened the season on fire, and while they'll hit a cooler patch sooner or later this is a game they've had circled since the schedule was set. This is the first time they'll see the Warriors since the NBA finals and I expect a HUGE effort from Boston. The Warriors have yet to catch their stride, but they know it's a long season. This game means a lot for to the Celtics that it does to the Warriors. 

Celtics are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. Celtics are 20-6-1 ATS in their last 27 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. Warriors are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following an ATS win.

They are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings and 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings in New Orleans. I also like the under as we should see better intensity on the defensive end after giving up 125 points to the Celtics.

RAPTORS/MAGIC NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

I love fading the Magic here as they're in a potential flat spot after ending a nine-game losing streak with a 116-111 overtime victory over the visiting LA Clippers on Wednesday. The Raptors will be looking to build on a 126-113 win against the Lakers on Wednesday. Raptors are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400 and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game.

The Clippers ended a two-game slide with a 119-117 win at Charlotte on Monday. Despite the win, they failed to cover the spread and they are 0-3 in their last three games. I think they'll come out strong here though against an Orlando team that is winless over its last nine games. 

Clippers are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. Magic are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games overall and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record. Clippers are 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings. Clippers are 5-0 ATS in the last 5 meetings in Orlando.

10* PLAY ON LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS. 

CBB BOOKIE BU$TER

Both Cleveland St. and St. Bonaventure are 6-2 ATS on the season, but I think the Vikings can keep this close and get the cover. Cleveland St. is riding a six-game winning streak through which the team is 5-1 ATS.

In their last game, the Vikings put a 92-77 beating on Detroit. Vikings are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games after scoring more than 90 points in their previous game.

St. Bonaventure took an 83-66 loss as a 2-point favorite at Buffalo in its last game. 

8* PLAY ON CLEVELAND STATE. 

NBA GAME OF THE MONTH - LAKERS/CAVS ATS BEST BET

This looks like a good spot to back the Cavs to bounce back from a 92-81 loss in New York on Sunday. The Cavs are 11-1-1 ATS in their last 13 home games and 3-0-2 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. The Lakers have been playing well lately but they are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

10* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

WARRIORS/PACERS 10* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Warriors have scored 119 points or more in five of their last six games and these two teams rank 25th and 26th for scoring defense, but I think this total is set too high.

Note that since the start of last season, the Warriors are 14-6-1 to the under in games with a total of 230 or higher. 

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

CELTICS/RAPTORS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Celtics are a dominant 19-5 SU and 15-9 ATS for the season. They'll be playing on no rest following a win at Brooklyn on Sunday but I still like them here in Toronto Monday night. 

Celtics are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games playing on 0 days rest, 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 34-16-1 ATS in their last 51 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. They are also 9-0 ATS in the last 9 meetings in Toronto.

The Raptors are coming off a dominant win against Orlando but they've been hit or miss lately. 

8* PLAY ON BOSTON CELTICS. 

MAVS/KNICKS NBA HARDWOOD HAMMER

This looks like a good spot to back the Mavs to bounce back from an OT loss at Detroit on Thursday. The Mavs are the better team and the Knicks have been inconsistent all season. Knicks are 7-18-2 ATS in their last 27 home games and 1-5-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

8* PLAY ON DALLAS MAVERICKS. 

SUPER EARLY OKLAHOMA/VILLANOVA BOOKIE BU$TER

Oklahoma is 6-1 on the season, but they've been favored in all but one of those games. The Wildcats are coming into this game with a chip on their shoulder as they look to end a four-game losing streak. Sooners are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400.

8* PLAY ON VILLANOVA WILDCATS. 

SIXERS/GRIZZLIES 10* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Sixers took a 113-85 loss at Cleveland on Tuesday and I think they're in for another tough game here in Memphis. The Sixers are 8-17-1 ATS in their last 26 road games and 3-9-1 ATS in their last 13 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of greater than .600. The Grizzlies are 27-9 ATS in their last 36 home games and they've covered the spread in each of the last four matchups with Philly at FedExForum. 

10* PLAY ON MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES. 

ARIZONA/UTAH CBB BOOKIE BU$TER

The Utes are coming off their best game of the season, a dominant 95-66 triumph over St. Thomas. Sure, this is a big step up in competition when they host the Arizona Wildcats Thursday night, but I like them to ride the momentum. The Wildcats are on a six-game winning streak but they have covered the spread in only one of their last five games. 

8* PLAY ON UTAH UTES. 

BUCKS/KNICKS NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Knicks are coming off a 140-110 win against Detroit on Tuesday, but they're about as inconsistent as it gets and 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games following a straight up win. The Bucks are 4-0 ATS in the last 4 meetings and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.

10* PLAY ON MILWAUKEE BUCKS. 

HAWKS/MAGIC SIDE

I like the Hawks to come through with a big outing here as they look to end a three-game losing streak. The Magic are 1-7 SU and 3-5 ATS in their last eight games and the Hawks are 6-1-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings. Additionally, I also like the over as the over is 5-0 in Hawks last 5 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.

8* PLAY ON ATLANTA HAWKS. 

HAWKS/MAGIC TOTAL

I like the Hawks to come through with a big outing here as they look to end a three-game losing streak. The Magic are 1-7 SU and 3-5 ATS in their last eight games and the Hawks are 6-1-1 ATS in the last 8 meetings. Additionally, I also like the over as the over is 5-0 in Hawks last 5 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.

8* PLAY ON OVER. 

TOP-RATED 10* KANSAS STATE/BUTLER CBB PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a potential flat spot for the undefeated Kansas State who won their tournament in the Cayman Islands. Butler meanwhile as a point to prove after going a disappointing 1-2 in the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament in the Bahamas last week

Bulldogs are 8-1 ATS in their last 9 games following a straight up loss and 13-5-1 ATS in their last 19 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

10* PLAY ON BUTLER BULLDOGS. 

NBA TOTAL GAME OF THE MONTH - 10* WESTERN CONF BEST BET

The Warriors have scored 124, 129, and 137 points in their last three games, but here they'll face a Mavs team that ranks 4th in the NBA with only 107.4 points allowed per game. Despite their stingy defense, the Mavs are only 9-10 SU for the season and 4-14-1 ATS as they've struggled on the offensive end. They also rank dead last for pace with 97.3 possessions per game and I expect them to really try and slow down the tempo here to take the Warriors out of their comfort zone. 

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

HAWKS/SIXERS 10* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

This looks like a good spot to back the Hawks who will be looking to bounce back from a loss while we also get to fade the Sixers off a win. Both teams will be playing on no rest which will hurt the Sixers the most, as they're without Joel Embiid and James Harden while P.J. Tucker is day to day. 

10* PLAY ON ATLANTA HAWKS. 

NBA GAME OF THE MONTH - 10* EASTERN CONF ATS BEST BET

The Cavs had won four on the bounce prior to a loss as an underdog at Milwaukee Friday night. They are 10-3 SU and ATS as favorites on the season and they won 112-88 as a four-point favorite here in Detroit back on November 4. The Pistons are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games but they played without four starters in a close loss at Phoenix on Friday and I don't see their backups coming up with a big game here. 

10* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

Mike Lundin's Pacers vs Clippers NBA Free Pick

The Pacers are 6-1 SU and 5-2 ATS as favorites. The Pacers are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 games overall and the Clippers are 5-12 ATS in their last 17 games vs. a team with a winning straight up record.

Clippers' seven-time All-Star Paul George has missed the last three games due to a hamstring tendon strain and without George in the Clippers lineup I make the Pacers the better team, even on the road.

KINGS/CELTICS NBA HARDWOOD HAMMER

The Celtics are 7-1 SU but "only" 5-3 ATS at home. That ATS number drops to 2-3 when laying seven points or more. The Kings are 10-7 SU on the season after winning seven of their last eight games. They are 4-1 ATS as road underdogs this season and 15-5-1 ATS in their last 21 road games. I expect them to put up a good fight. 

8* PLAY ON SACRAMENTO KINGS. 

Pels/Spurs 10* NBA Top Play of the Day

The Pels have won four of their last five games and covered the spread in all wins. The Spurs are reeling coming off five straight losses while going 1-4 ATS. The Pelicans are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400 and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 road games vs. a team with a losing home record.

10* play on New Orleans Pelicans. 

Super Early 10* CBB Game of the Week - Kansas/NC State BEST BET

Both teams are coming into this game 4-0. This will be a big step up in competition for the Wolfpack compared to their earlier opponents, but if they're successful at bombing away from three, they should be able to keep this close. 

10* play on NC State. 

Liberty/Northwestern CBB BOOKIE BOMBER Total

Northwestern is 4-0 to the under on the season while Liberty is 3-0 to the under. As the home team, I expect the Wildcats to control the tempo here though and the Flames were held to 59 points in their lone road game (and as an underdog). 

8* play on UNDER. 

Kings/Grizzlies 10* NBA Top Play of the Day

The Kings are red hot, coming into this game on a six-game winning streak, and the only time they didn't cover the spread was as a double-digit favorite against Detroit in their last game. The Kings are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 road games, and here they'll face a shorthanded Grizzlies team that is without Desmond  Bane and Ja Morant just to name a few. I expect the Kings to stay hot as they look to avenge 125-110 home loss to Memphis on October 27. 

10* play on Sacramento Kings. 

Mike's Tuesday Night CBB BOOKIE BU$TER

Southern Indiana is 3-0 ATS in lined games this season, but they were getting double-digits in those games. Here they're getting fewer points against a St. Bonaventure team that is coming off an 81-68 triumph against Bowling Green. The Screaming Eagles have been shooting a red-hot 45.7% from three-point range which of course is not sustainable, and I think we'll see regression here against the more talented Bonnies. 

8* play on St. Bonny. 

Top-rated 10* Hawks/Cavs NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Hawks have traded wins and losses over their last seven games, and I think they'll take an L here following an OT win against Toronto on Saturday. They'll face Cavs team that is dominant on the glass and shooting 39% (2nd) from three-point range. The Cavs will be playing on no rest after routing Miami last night, but I think they'll have enough gas left in the tank to take this one. 

Hawks are 8-25 ATS in their last 33 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Cavaliers are 14-3-1 ATS in their last 18 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

10* play on Cleveland Cavaliers. 

Top-Rated 10* Jazz/Blazers NBA Play of the Day

This looks like a good spot to fade the Jazz who should be gassed after running and down the court with the Suns in the altitude in Salt Lake City Friday night. The Blazers will be looking to bounce back from a home loss to Brooklyn.

10* play on Portland. 

SUNS/JAZZ NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Jazz opened the season strong, but they are coming into this game off three consecutive losses. The Suns snapped a two-game skid with a 130-119 win against Golden State, and they are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 games after scoring more than 125 points in their previous game and 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings with Utah. 

8* PLAY ON PHOENIX SUNS. 

NBA ATS GAME OF THE WEEK - 10* MAJOR WAGER

The Indiana Pacers are red hot, with wins in six of their last eight games while covering the spread in each game. The Rockets are 2-8 in their last 10 (4-6 ATS) and only 3-11 on the season. This will be the first meeting of the season, but Indiana is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. 

10* PLAY ON INDIANA PACERS. 

NETS/BLAZERS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Nets just gave up 153 points in a loss at Sacramento, and this looks like a tough spot as they close out a four-game road trip before going back home to face Memphis on Sunday. The Blazers have been surprisingly competitive this season. They are 10-4 SU and 11-3 ATS on the season. 

The Nets are 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up loss. The Nets are 5-12-1 ATS in their last 18 games overall.

8* PLAY ON PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS. 

WOLVES/MAGIC NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

Both teams are coming into this game with losing records. The Timberwolves are only 2-6 SU and ATS in their last eight games, but they are 17-5 ATS in their last 22 games vs. a team with a winning % below .400 (2-0 ATS this season). The Magic are 2-11 ATS in their last 13 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

8* PLAY ON MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES. 

TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY

The Wizards are coming into this game riding a four-game winning streak, which I think sets up a potential flat spot here against OKC. The Thunder are 14-5 ATS in their last 19 road games vs. a team with a winning home record while the 10-27-1 ATS in their last 38 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record. Additionally, the Wizards are 8-21-1 ATS in their last 30 games following a straight up win.

10* PLAY ON OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER. 

CBB BOOKIE BLA$TER

Both teams are 1-1 SU but Ohio is 2-0 ATS. They lost by only one point as a 6-point underdog at Belmont in their season opener and defeated Cleveland State by double digits in their last game. They've been shooting lights out from behind the arc and I expect that to continue here against Detroit Mercy. 

8* PLAY ON OHIO. 

NBA GAME OF THE MONTH - 10* WESTERN CONF BEST BET ATS

This looks like a great spot to back the Memphis Grizzlies to bounce back from a 102-92 loss at Washington on Sunday. They are 15-7 ATS in their last 22 games following a straight up loss and 20-8 ATS in their last 28 games following an ATS loss. 

The Pels are coming off a dominant win over Houston, but they have struggled to string solid outings together. They are 1-5 ATS off a win this season and 1-4 ATS after covering the spread in their last game.    

10* PLAY ON MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES. 

TOP-RATED 10* CLIPPERS/ROCKETS NBA PLAY OF THE DAY

I like the Clippers to bounce back from a 110-95 home loss to Brooklyn. They got enough depth to grind down this Houston team that has lost eight of its last nine games, with only one of those losses coming by fewer than seven points. The Clippers are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

10* PLAY ON LA CLIPPERS. 

THUNDER/KNICKS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

The Thunder defeated Toronto by just under 20 points as an underdog on Friday, and I think they'll make life difficult for the Knicks at Madison Square Garden Sunday afternoon.  Thunder are 8-1-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 26-7 ATS in their last 33 Sunday games. Knicks are 5-12 ATS in their last 17 Sunday games.

8* PLAY ON OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER. 

TOP-RATED 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY

The Blazers are looking a lot better than expected. They're coming off a 106-95 win at New Orleans, but they are only 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and this is a tough spot as they're closing out a six-game road trip. The Blazers are dealing with a lot of injuries and the Mavs will be looking to bounce back from two disappointing losses. 

10* PLAY ON DALLAS MAVERICKS. 

NBA ATS GAME OF THE YEAR (EAST v WEST) - 10* MAJOR WAGER 

The Warriors ended a five-game losing streak with a win over Sacramento on Monday. They can still not be all that happy with their performance as they were playing from behind for most of the game. I expect to see a strong showing from the Warriors tonight, and it's a tough spot for the Cavs who will be wrapping up a five-game road trip.

Warriors are 12-3-1 ATS in their last 16 Friday games, 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 games playing on 3 or more days rest and 14-6 ATS in their last 20 home games.

10* PLAY ON GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS. 

SIXERS/HAWKS 10* NBA TOP PLAY OF THE DAY

The Hawks will be playing on no rest while the Sixers last played on Nov 7 when they defeated the Suns, but I still like Atlanta in this matchup. They are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 home games vs. a team with a winning road record while the 76ers are 6-14-1 ATS in their last 21 road games. The Hawks are 10-4 in the last 14 meetings at State Farm Arena.

10* PLAY ON ATLANTA HAWKS. 

NBA GAME OF THE WEEK - 10* MAJOR WAGER TOTAL

The Nets are 3-2 in their last five games, and they've really stepped it up on the defensive end lately. In their last three games, the Nets have allowed only 86, 94, and 96 points and each of their last five games has gone under the total.

Under is 10-1 in Nets last 11 vs. a team with a losing straight up record and 5-0 in Knicks last 5 vs. a team with a losing straight up record.

10* PLAY ON UNDER. 

NUGGETS/PACERS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

This looks like a great spot to fade the Pacers who are coming off back-to-back wins as underdogs. As a matter of fact, they're 4-1 SU while going 5-0 ATS in their last five, closing all games as underdogs. This run ends tonight against a Denver team that has been shooting the ball lately with 122, 126, and 115 points scored over its last three games. 

8* PLAY ON DENVER NUGGETS. 

CAVS/CLIPPERS NBA BOOKIE BU$TER

The Cavs are making some serious noise, coming into this game 8-1 SU and ATS. They defeated the Lakers here in LA last night and I don't think playing the second game in two nights will slow them down. The Clippers will also be playing on no rest after taking an L to Utah on Sunday and they are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning % above .600.

8* PLAY ON CLEVELAND CAVALIERS. 

PELS/PACERS 10* NBA PLAY OF THE DAY

The Pacers have picked up the pace (no pun intended) with wins in three of their last four games. They had the weekend off after defeating Miami on Friday, but they are only 3-13-1 ATS in their last 17 games playing on 2 days rest. They'll face a Pelicans team that has traded wins and losses all season, so they're on track for a win here after losing in OT at Atlanta on Saturday. Pelicans are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games following a straight up loss and 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games following a ATS loss.

10* PLAY ON NEW ORLEANS PELICANS. 

CELTICS/KNICKS NBA BOOKIE BREAKER

Both teams are coming off wins Friday night with the Knicks winning at Philadelphia while Boston defeated the Bulls at home. Celtics are 16-5-1 ATS in their last 22 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. Knicks are 5-13 ATS in their last 18 home games.

8* PLAY ON BOSTON CELTICS.
