15* SHARP PLAY on Bucks -3½ -105

I got no problem laying the 3.5-points with Milwaukee against the Rockets. Bucks might not have a ton to play for in terms of the standings, as they all but have the No. 1 seed in the East locked up. However, they are still trying to get back to form after the long layoff and I just think they will be too much for the inconsistent Rockets. Houston won their first in the bubble restart, but that was more of a result of the Mavs collapsing down the stretch. I just don't think Houston's small-ball is going to work against this loaded Bucks team. Play Milwaukee -3.5! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Spurs +3 -105

The Spurs are definitely worth a look as a small dog against the Grizzlies in Sunday's NBA action. San Antonio not only covered, but won outright 129-120 as a similarly priced 3.5-point dog against the Kings on Friday. Memphis on the other hand lost 135-140 in OT against the Blazers. I think we could see the Grizzlies have a tough time showing up with the energy needed to win this game. I really like the Spurs to win outright, but I'll gladly take the points for some added insurance. Play San Antonio +3! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Lakers -4 -102

I think the perception here is that the Lakers are going to have a letdown against Toronto after playing that big game against rival Clippers on Thursday. I just don't think that's as big a factor given the circumstances here with the bubble. There's clearly no travel for games and a day off, should be more than enough to have LA ready to roll in this one. As for the Raptors, I think we could see them take a bit to get going in their first game. Play the Lakers -4! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz vs Thunder under 212 -110

I'm expecting a very low-scoring game here between the Jazz and Thunder. These are two of the better defensive teams in the league and while we have yet to see OKC in the new bubble, Utah just played a game on Thursday against a fast-paced and high-powered Pelicans offense that ended up with a total of just 210. This is also a big game for both teams as Utah is 4th in the west, just 2 games back of the Clippers for the No. 2 seed. They are also just 1.5-games ahead of OKC, who is currently the No. 6 seed. Play the UNDER 212! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Grizzlies +2 -101

There's a ton of hype on Portland coming into the NBA restart and I think it's going to have a lot of people jumping on the Blazers as a small favorite here. I'm just not one of them. Portland should have a solid starting 5, but they don't have great depth. I also think it could take a bit for the likes of Nurkic and Collins to get back in form. I like Morant and the Grizzlies to win this game and really put a tight hold on that 8th and final spot in the Western Conference. Play the Grizzlies +2! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Nets +7 -108

This is just too good a price to pass up on the Nets at +7 against the Magic. Brooklyn does have a number of guys sitting out either due to injury or because of covid, but that doesn't mean they are going to just lie down. I feel they got more than enough talent to not only cover this number but win the game outright. Play the Nets +7! 

20* SHARP PLAY on Jazz vs Pelicans over 221 -106

Easy play here on the OVER 221 in Thursday's NBA matchup between the Pelicans and Jazz. All signs point to New Orleans having Zion for this one and even if he doesn't play, there's still a great shot this goes over. Pelicans rank 2nd in the NBA in pace of play, while sitting in the bottom half of the league in defensive efficiency. Utah is 6th in the NBA in offensive efficiency. I see this one easily approaching 225 and likely into the 230's. Play the OVER 221! 

15* SHARP PLAY on Kings +3½ -101

20* SHARP PLAY on Lakers -8 -106

*All NBA "scrimmage games" picks are generated using advanced statistics and scoring models*

20* KNICKS/HAWKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hawks -4½ -105

My money is on the Hawks to cash in a win and cover as a 4.5-point home favorite against the Knicks in Wednesday's NBA action. Easy play here on Atlanta at home against a bad Knicks team that is in an awful scheduling spot. New York will be on no rest after a game last night in Washington. Knicks have really struggled to play well on no rest (0-4-1 ATS last 5) and tonight will be no different. BET THE HAWKS -4.5! 

20* MAGIC/GRIZZLIES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Magic vs Grizzlies under 224 -110

My money is on the UNDER 224 in Tuesday's NBA matchup between the Grizzlies and Magic. Memphis has really picked up the defensive intensity as they push for a playoff spot. Grizzlies are giving up just 95.4 ppg. Orlando has been one of the slower paced teams this season, but have had a lot of high-scoring games of late, but that's more of who they have played and we are getting a ton of value because of it. BET THE UNDER 224! 

15* WOLVES/ROCKETS NBA SHARP WINNER on Wolves vs Rockets over 244 -110

My money is on the OVER 244 in Tuesday's NBA action between the Wolves and Rockets. Easy play here on the OVER with Minnesota. Timberwolves are offering little to no resistance on the defensive side of the ball and are scoring at a high clip. Timberwolves are scoring 114 ppg in their last 5 and giving up 121 ppg. Rockets are scoring 119.1 ppg at home and giving up 118 ppg in their last 5. BET THE OVER 244! 

15* KNICKS/WIZARDS NBA SHARP WINNER on Wizards -4 -110

My money is on the Wizards to cash in a win and cover as a slim 4-point home favorite against the Knicks. Knicks are getting a little too much respect here on the road. NY has won and covered 4 of their last 5, but all 5 of those game at home. Knicks are 8-20 ATS last 28 on the road after playing 2 or more straight games at home. Give me the Wizards -4! 

20* HORNETS/HAWKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hornets +6 -110

My money is on Charlotte to cash in a cover as a 6-point road dog against the Hawks in Monday's NBA action. Hornets have quietly been a covering machine here of late. Charlotte is a respectable 6-5 SU over their last 11 games, but are an outstanding 9-2 ATS during this stretch and come in having covered 6 straight. BET THE HORNETS +6! 

20* HEAT/WIZARDS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Heat -4½ -110

My money is on the Heat to cash in a win and cover as a 4.5-point road favorite at Washington. Miami had won 4 straight before a close loss at New Orleans against a desperate Pelicans team on Friday. Wizards are off a big home win against the Hawks, but that's nothing to be excited about. What stands out to me is the fact that Washington allowed 50% or better from the field for a 3rd straight game. BET THE HEAT -4.5! 

15* PELICANS/WOLVES NBA SHARP WINNER on Pelicans -5½ -110

My money is on the Pelicans to cash in an easy win and cover as a 5.5-point road dog at Minnesota. New Orleans snapped their 3 game skid with a big win and cover at home against the Heat and now they will be out for revenge from a shocking loss as a double-digit home favorite to the Wolves last week. BET THE PELICANS -5.5! 

15* BULLS/NETS NBA SHARP WINNER on Nets -7½ -110

My money is on Brooklyn to cash in an easy win and cover at home against the Nets. The decision to fire head coach Kenny Atkinson was a bit of a surprise, but I don't see it keeping Brooklyn from having any problem disposing of the Bulls at home. Chicago's the team that needs to fire their head coach as Jim Boylen has shown next to nothing that makes you think he's the right guy. BET THE NETS -7.5! 

15* KINGS/BLAZERS NBA SHARP WINNER on Kings +4½ -110

My money is on the Kings to cash in a cover as a 4.5-point road dog against the Blazers. Portland is coming off a double-digit loss at Phoenix last night and Carmelo got hurt in the defeat. Kings playing on rest and have been great since the break, going 6-2 SU and 6-2 ATS. BET SACRAMENTO +4.5! 

20* 76ERS/WARRIORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Warriors +2½ -110

My money is on the Warriors to cash in an easy win and cover here as a 2.5-point home dog against the 76ers in Saturday's NBA action. Golden State just got back Steph Curry in their last game. While they lost at home to the Raptors, they did cover and Curry played well. 76ers without their two best players and not a great road team. BET THE WARRIORS +2.5! 

15* MAGIC/WOLVES NBA SHARP WINNER on Wolves +2½ -115

My money is on the Wolves to cash in a cover as a 2.5-point home dog against the Magic in Friday's NBA action. Minnesota has won and covered two straight and I think are showing value here at home in a big revenge spot against the Magic, who beat them in Orlando by 11 a week ago. BET THE WOLVES +2.5! 

15* HEAT/PELICANS NBA SHARP WINNER on Pelicans -1½ -105

My money is on the Pelicans to cash in a win and cover as a 1.5-point home favorite against the Heat. New Orleans has lost 3 straight and I think that's playing into the great price we are getting here. Miami has won 4 straight, but all 4 were at home and this team is just not the same on the road. BET THE PELICANS -1.5! 

20* THUNDER/KNICKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Thunder -7 -110

My money is on the Thunder to cash in a win and cover as a 7-point road favorite. I just think the Knicks are getting a little too much love here. NY has covered 2 of their last 3, but were a bit lucky to cover as a 9-point dog in a 8-point loss to Utah. OKC also a bit undervalued having failed to cover 5 straight. BET THE THUNDER -7! 

20* 76ERS/KINGS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on 76ers +5 -110

My money is on the 76ers to cash in a cover here as a 5-point road dog against the Kings in Thursday's NBA action. Philadelphia is getting no love here with both Simmons and Embiid out with injury and them off back-to-back losses. Thing is those two losses came against two of the best teams in the league in the Clippers and Lakers. Kings have been playing better of late, but this is too many for them to be laying. BET THE 76ERS +5! 

20* GRIZZLIES/NETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Grizzlies +3 -110'

My money is on the Grizzlies to cash in a win and cover as a 3-point road dog against the Nets. Memphis has won two straight after dropping 5 in a row and I look for them to stay hot here. Really tough spot for Brooklyn off an incredible OT win at Boston last night to finish up a 4-game road trip. BET THE GRIZZLIES +3! 

15* PACERS/BUCKS NBA (ATS) SHARP WINNER on Pacers +11 -105

My money is on the Pacers to cash in a cover as a big 11-point road dog at Milwaukee in Wednesday's NBA action. Indiana is coming into this one on a 4-game winning streak and appear to be catching the Bucks at the right time. Milwaukee just lost 89-105 at Miami and that's after scoring just 93 at Charlotte the day before. While home, this will be their 3rd game in 4 days. BET THE PACERS +11!

15* SHARP PLAY on Pacers vs Bucks under 222 -102

My money is on the UNDER 222 in Wednesday's NBA action that has the Pacers visiting the Bucks. Indiana has won 4 straight and are giving up 98.8 ppg during this stretch. That defense will look to keep the Bucks offense on ice, as Milwaukee followed up a 93 point effort at Charlotte with a mere 89 at Miami. BET THE UNDER 222! 

20* WIZARDS/KINGS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wizards +6 -110

My money is on the Wizards to cash in a cover here as a 6-point road dog at Sacramento in Tuesday's NBA action. Washington has been a sneaky good bet of late. Wizards are 3-0-1 ATS last 4 games and 8-4-1 ATS last 13 overall. Kings have won and covered 5 of 6, but did just fail to cover as a 9.5-point home favorite against Detroit. BET THE WIZARDS +6! 

15* WOLVES/PELICANS NBA SHARP WINNER on Wolves +11½ -105

My money is on the Wolves to cash in a cover as a big 11.5-point road dog against the Pelicans. Most are going to be quick to fade Minnesota here, but I think we are getting a big enough number to take a shot. New Orleans is in a pretty big letdown here after a really tough loss at home to the Lakers on Sunday. BET MINNESOTA +11.5! 

20* GRIZZLIES/HAWKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hawks -2½ -110

My money is on the Hawks to cash in as a slim 2.5-point home favorite against the Grizzlies. Memphis comes in off an impressive 105-88 win as a 11-point home dog against the Lakers. However, I think that was all LA not showing up to play. Prior to that the Grizzlies had lost 5 straight and are still down two of their best players in Jaren Jackson and Brandon Clarke. Hawks have been playing well and are a decent bet at home. BET ATLANTA -2.5! 

15* BLAZERS/MAGIC NBA SHARP WINNER on Magic -6 -110

My money is on the Magic to cash in a win and cover as a 6-point home favorite against the Blazers in Monday's NBA action. I just think this is too good a price to pass up with Orlando with Lillard out for Portland. Blazers are now 1-6 in their last 7 and are also 1-6 ATS during this run. Magic have won 5 of 7 and are 4-0 ATS last 4 games. BET THE MAGIC -6! 

20* PISTONS/KINGS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pistons +7½ -100

My money is on the Pistons to cash in a cover here as a 7.5-point road dog at Sacramento. Detroit just won outright as a 9-point dog at Phoenix in their last game, but no one wants anything to do with this team. Kings on the other hand are way overvalued due to having covered 5 straight. Sacramento likely wins at home, but not by more than the number. BET THE PISTONS +7.5! 

20* NETS/HEAT NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Heat -7 -105

My money is on the Heat to cash in a win and cover as a 7-point home favorite against the Nets. Brooklyn had a good thing going, but they are in a major funk right now. Nets come in having lost 3 straight and it's hard to see them snapping out of this funk playing on no rest and in their 3rd road game in the last 4 nights. BET THE HEAT -7! 

20* NUGGETS/CLIPPERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nuggets vs Clippers over 220 -110

My money is on the OVER 220 in Friday's NBA action that has the Clippers hosting the Nuggets. Denver's got their offense going. Nuggets scored 128 on 59% shooting in Sunday's win over the Twolves and then put up 115 on 58% shooting against the Pistons on Tuesday. Two days rest before this one, so look for them to stay hot. Clippers are averaging 113 ppg over their last 5 and 117 ppg at home. BET THE OVER 220!

15* NUGGETS/CLIPPERS NBA SHARP WINNER on Clippers -5½ -105

My money is on the Clippers to cash in an easy win and cover as a 5.5-point home favorite against the Nuggets. Denver comes in off a couple of blowout wins, but that was against the Timberwolves and Pistons. The Nuggets are just getting to much respect here on the road against LA. This feels like the time for the Clippers to turn it on. BET LOS ANGELES -5.5! 

15* WIZARDS/JAZZ NBA SHARP WINNER on Jazz -9½ -110

My money is on the Jazz to cash in an easy win and cover here as a 9.5-point home favorite against the Wizards. I just think Washington has to be a bit fatigued here playing their 5th game since returning from the All-Star break last Friday. Utah has lost 4 straight, all at home. Jazz will be extremely motivated to get this one before heading on the road for 4 straight. BET THE JAZZ -9.5! 

20* BLAZERS/PACERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pacers -9½ -104

My money is on the Pacers to cash in a win and cover as a 9.5-point home favorite against the Blazers in Thursday's NBA action. Easy play on Indiana at home with the Blazers still without Damian Lillard. Guy was playing at a MVP level before he got hurt. There's just not enough talent or depth on that roster for them to win without him. Portland is 1-4 SU and 0-5 ATS last 5 games. BET THE PACERS -9.5! 

15* MAGIC/HAWKS NBA SHARP WINNER on Magic -2 -110

My money is on Orlando to cash in a win and cover here as a slim 2-point road favorite against the Hawks in Wednesday's NBA action. Orlando just went on the road and beat the Nets 115-113 as a 3.5-point dog and I look for them to make it back-to-back on the road against a Hawks team that is fresh off a 17-point loss at Philadelphia and will be playing their 4th game in 7 days out of the break. BET THE MAGIC -2! 

20* KNICKS/HORNETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Knicks vs Hornets over 206½ -110

My money is on the OVER 206.5 in Wednesday's NBA action that has the Knicks visiting the Hornets. Charlotte managed just 80 points in last night's blowout loss at Indiana and that will make it tough to take the oVER here. Thing is, OVER is 6-1 in Hornets last 7 when playing on no rest and 14-5 in their last 19 vs a team with a losing record. OVER is also 11-4-1 in New York's last 16 vs a team with a losing straight up record. BET THE OVER 206.5! 

15* KNICKS/HORNETS NBA SHARP WINNER on Knicks +2 -110

My money is on the Knicks to cash in a win here as a slim 2-point road dog against the Hornets in Wednesday's NBA action. Charlotte is a dumpster fire right now and while the Knicks have lost 4 straight they have at least been competitive. Hornets last two game have seen them lose 86-115 at home to the Nets and 80-119 at Indiana. Knicks are 4-0 ATS last 4 games as a road favorite and 3-1-1 ATS last 5 on the road vs a team with a losing road record. BET THE KNICKS +2! 

15* THUNDER/BULLS NBA SHARP WINNER on Bulls +6½ -107

My money is on the Bulls to cash in a cover as a 6.5-point home dog against the Thunder. Chicago is playing short-handed with a ton of guys injured and I think it's got them a bit undervalued on the spread. OKC is quality team, but tough 1-game road trip to Chicago before going right back home to face the Kings. BET THE BULLS +6.5! 

20* HORNETS/PACERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Hornets +10½ -110

My money is on the Hornets to cash in as a 10.5-point road dog against the Pacers in Tuesday's NBA action. Easy play here on Charlotte at this price. Indiana has no business laying this kind of number with how poorly they have been playing. Pacers are just 3-6 ATS over their last 9 games and just laid an absolute egg in a 81-127 loss at Toronto. Charlotte is bad, but have won and covered 3 of their last 4. BET THE HORNETS +10.5! 

15* SUNS/JAZZ NBA SHARP WINNER on Jazz -7½ -110

My money is on the Jazz to cash in an easy win and cover here as a 7.5-point home favorite against the Suns. I expect a big time effort here from Utah, who has lost their first two games back from the break, both at home. They are catching Phoenix at the right time. Suns are playing their 3rd road game in 4 days, going from Toronto to Chicago and now to Utah. BET THE JAZZ -7.5! 

20* NBA MAGIC/NETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nets -2 -110

My money is on the Nets to cash in an easy win and cover at home against the Magic. This is just too good a price to pass up with Brooklyn. Not having Kyrie Irving is viewed as a bad thing, but it's really not. This team has played better without him this season and the Magic are definitely a team they can take on their home floor. Orlando is not a good road team. BET THE NETS -2! 

20* SPURS/THUNDER NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Spurs +5½ -105

My money is on the Spurs to cash in a cover as a 5.5-point road dog at OKC in Sunday's NBA action. San Antonio returned from the All-Star break in fashion with a 113-104 win at Utah as a 7-point dog. I look for them to add to with another outright win against the Thunder. BET SPURS +5.5! 

15* SPURS/THUNDER NBA SHARP WINNER on Spurs vs Thunder under 223 -110

My money is on the UNDER 223 in Sunday's NBA action that has the Thunder hosting the Spurs. Both of these teams really came out strong defensively in their first game back from the break. San Antonio went on the road and held Utah to just 104 points on 43% shooting. OKC limited the Nuggets to a mere 101 points at home and forced Denver into 19 turnovers. BET THE UNDER 223! 

15* ROCKETS/JAZZ NBA SHARP WINNER on Rockets +3 -110

My money is on the Rockets to cash in a win and cover as a slim 3-point road dog at Utah in Saturday's NBA action. Houston is starting to get things back on track and they returned from the break with an impressive 135-105 win at Golden State. Utah on the other hand lost outright 104-113 as a 7-point favorite to the Spurs last night. Jazz playing on no rest here. Houston on 1-day of rest. BET THE ROCKETS +3! 

20* NETS/HORNETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nets vs Hornets under 215½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 215.5 in Saturday's NBA action that has the Nets visiting the Hornets. Easy play here. Charlotte is awful offensively and like to play at a snails pace. Brooklyn's offense isn't as potent without Kyrie, but it's much better defensively. Big number for the slow tempo that we are going to see in this one. BET THE UNDER 215.5! 

15* PELICANS/BLAZERS NBA SHARP WINNER on Blazers +3½ -115

My money is on the Blazers to cash in a cover as a 3.5-point home dog against the Pelicans. Portland will be without Damian Lillard, but I think they show up at home here and take down New Orleans. Rest of the guys will be eager to prove they can carry the load with how much heavy lifting Lillard has done of late. BET THE BLAZERS +3.5! 

15* SPURS/JAZZ NBA SHARP WINNER on Spurs +8 -110

My money is on the Spurs to cash in a road cover as a 8-point dog against the Jazz in Friday's NBA action. Utah is simply getting a little too much love here at this price. All-Star break couldn't have come at a better time for San Antonio. They had to play 6 straight on the road to close things out. They should be better than they have been in this one. BET THE SPURS +8! 

20* CELTICS/WOLVES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wolves +7½ -110

My money is on the Timberwolves to cash in a cover here as a big 7.5-point home dog against the Celtics in Friday's NBA action. I just think Boston is being way overpriced in this one. Celtics are motivated for a playoff push down the stretch run, but might not be 100% locked in first game back from the All-Star Break, especially on the road against a bad team like Minnesota. Timberwolves on the other hand will be motivated to show well in this spot. BET MINNESOTA +7.5! 

15* GRIZZLIES/KINGS NBA SHARP WINNER on Grizzlies +1½ -109

My money is on the Grizzlies to cash in a win and cover as a 1.5-point road dog against the Kings. Memphis really came on strong in the final month before the All-Star break and I don't think this team is going anywhere. Kings on the other hand have been a major disappointment and simply can't be trusted. BET MEMPHIS +1.5! 

20* HEAT/HAWKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Heat -5½ -110

My money is on the Heat to cash in an easy win and cover as a 5.5-point road favorite against the Hawks in Thursday's NBA action. There's a perception with Miami that they are only a good team at home and I think that's playing into the favorable line here against Atlanta. Look for the Heat to win here easy. BET MIAMI -5.5! 

20* TEAM LEBRON/TEAM GIANNIS ALL-STAR GAME WISEGUY TOP PLAY on All Star LeBron vs All Star Giannis under 303 +106

My money is on the UNDER in today's NBA All-Star Game. While there's never going to be elite defense played in these things, the level of defensive intensity has picked up since they started drafting teams. I think the new format this year is also going to work in the favor of the UNDER and I think there's a little more incentive this year with all that's happened with Kobe and the MVP award now being named after him. BET THE UNDER 303! 

20* WORLD/USA NBA ALL-STAR WKND WISEGUY TOP PLAY!  on World vs USA under 300 -110

My money is on the UNDER 300 in Friday's Rising Stars Challenge that has Team World facing off with Team USA. These two rosters are pretty loaded, mainly because you got Luka Doncic on Team World and Trae Young on Team USA. I'm not saying they won't play, but both ere also playing in the real All-Star game Sunday. I think both guys are more spectators than expected. Without them logging big minutes, I don't see them going over the mark. BET THE UNDER 300! 

20* PISTONS/MAGIC NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pistons vs Magic under 205½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 205.5 in Wednesday's NBA action between the Magic and Pistons. Detroit has no offense right now. The Pistons managed just 76 points last time out at home against Charlotte and only scored 92 the game before at home against the Knicks. In their last 5 games they are shooting 41.8% from the field. Orlando is good defensive team and really like to slow the game down and Detroit really has no choice but to play their tempo. BET THE UNDER 205.5! 

15* HAWKS/CAVS NBA SHARP WINNER on Cavs +2 -105

My money is on the Cavs to cash in a win and cover as a 2-point home dog against the Hawks in Wednesday's NBA action. Atlanta is playing short-handed right now, as two of their big additions via trades in Capela and Labissiere are still out with injuries and likely won't be back until after the all-star break. No way should they be favored on the road. Hawks are 6-23 away from home this season, losing by an average of 13.1 ppg. BET THE CAVS +2! 

15* PISTONS/MAGIC NBA SHARP WINNER on Magic -7½ -105

My money is on the Magic to cash in a win and cover here as a 7.5-point home favorite against the Pistons in Wednesday's NBA action. This a massive fade of Detroit, who with the trade of Drummond are no longer trying to win games. They certainly are having a hard time scoring. Pistons are averaging 93.4 ppg on 41.8% shooting in their last 5. You can't win performing like that, especially on the road. BET THE MAGIC -7.5! 

20* CELTICS/ROCKETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Celtics +3 -110

My money is on the Celtics to cash in a win and cover as a 3-point road dog against the Rockets. Most will be looking to take Houston as a slim home favorite, but Rockets have just not been playing well and are down one of their better players in Gordon. Boston on the other hand is a playing extremely well and I see them keeping it going into the break. BET THE CELTICS +3! 

15* CLIPPERS/76ERS NBA SHARP WINNER on Clippers -1 -115

My money is on the Clippers to cash in a win and cover as a slim 1-point road favorite against the 76ers. I know Philadelphia is 24-2 at home this season, but I still like Los Angeles in this one. LA is great at both home and on the road and I think they are looking to make a statement in this one. BET THE CLIPPERS -1! 

20* SPURS/NUGGETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Spurs +8 -110

My money is on the Spurs to cash in a cover as 8-point road dog against the Nuggets in Monday's NBA action. It's been a tough start to the rodeo road trip for San Antonio, but I think it has them showing great value here. Nuggets have been all over the place here in the last month. They have played 9 of their last 13 games on the road, having not played back-to-back at home since mid January. With a massive game at home against the Lakers on deck Wednesday, I don't see them blowing out SA. BET THE SPURS +8! 

15* JAZZ/MAVS NBA SHARP WINNER on Jazz -1 -110

My money is on the Jazz to cash in a win and cover as a slim 1-point road favorite at Dallas in Monday's NBA action. Utah has won two straight following that surprising 5-game losing streak and I look for them to stay hot against what figures to be a tired Mavs team that is still missing their best player in Luka Doncic. BET THE JAZZ -1!

20* JAZZ/ROCKETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Rockets -3½ -105

My money is on the Rockets to cash in a win and cover as a 3.5-point home favorite against the Jazz. I think this is way too good a price to pass up with HOuston at home. Rockets laid an egg in their last game at Phoenix, but that was to be expected as they were in the second leg of a back-to-back, resting Westbrook and off a massive win at the Lakers the day before. Not to mention they lost Eric Gordon to injury early in that game. With Harden back to his old self and Westbrook back for this one, I look for the Rockets to win easy. BET HOUSTON -3.5! 

15* GRIZZLIES/WIZARDS NBA SHARP WINNER on Wizards +1½ +102

I'll take my chances here with the Wizards as a 1.5-point home dog against the Grizzlies in Sunday's NBA action. I think this is a great price to catch Washington at home. Wizards are playing well at the moment with a 3-1 SU and 3-1 ATS mark in their last 4 games. They are playing their 5th straight at home and just their second game in the last 6 days. Memphis just got annihilated at Philadelphia and are playing their 3rd road game in the last 5 days. BET THE WIZARDS +1.5! 

15* SPURS/KINGS NBA SHARP WINNER on Spurs -1½ -110

My money is on the Spurs to cash in an easy win and cover as a slim 1.5-point home favorite against the Kings in Saturday's NBA action. Easy play on San Antonio in this one. Spurs will be playing their 4th straight on the road, but will also be highly motivated to get a win after dropping their first 3. They couldn't be catching the Kings in a better spot, as Sacramento will be playing in the 2nd leg of a back-t-back. BET THE SPURS -1.5!

15* NETS/RAPTORS NBA SHARP WINNER on Raptors -8 -105

My money is on the Raptors to cash in a win and cover as a 8-point home favorite against the Nets in Saturday's NBA action. Even though Toronto is going to be playing on no rest after a game at Indiana on Friday, I look for the defending champs to make easy work of a Nets team that is going to be playing without Kyrie Irving. Toronto's offense is just too good for the poor excuse of a defense that Brooklyn plays. BET THE RAPTORS -8! 

20* BUCKS/MAGIC NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Bucks -8½ -110

My money is on the Bucks to cash in a win and cover as a 8.5-point favorite at Orlando in Saturday's NBA action. The books are really struggling to inflate the number enough with Milwaukee. They know the public is going to back this team and yet they keep covering. I expect more of the same here against the Magic, who I look to be a bit flat off a 3-game road trip that ended with back-to-back games on Wednesday and Thursday at Boston and New York. BET THE BUCKS -8.5! 

20* BLAZERS/JAZZ NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Blazers +9 -110

My money is on the Blazers to cash in a cover as a 9-point road dog at Utah. Most are just going to look to instantly fade Portland because they are playing in the second game of a back-to-back, but I believe the books are on top of it and have inflated this line to where the value is on the Blazers. You also have to factor how poorly Utah has been playing. Jazz have lost 5 straight games, all as a favorite. BET THE BLAZERS +9! 

15* RAPTORS/PACERS NBA SHARP WINNER on Raptors vs Pacers over 217½ -105

My money is on the OVER 217.5 in Friday's NBA action that has the Pacers hosting the Raptors. These two teams just played on Wednesday and combined for 137 points, as both teams shot at least 50% from the field and the two combined to make 31 3-pointers. They also combined for 135 in the first meeting. I get there's likely to be a little less scoring in the quick rematch, but the number here is just too low. BET THE OVER 217.5! 

20* PELICANS/BULLS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pelicans -3½ -110

My money is on the Pelicans to cash in an easy win and cover as a 3.5-point road favorite against the Bulls. Chicago has simply not been playing well at all of late and that's to be expected given all the key guys they are down to injury. Pelicans are a force with Zion and will be highly motivated off back-to-back losses. BET NEW ORLEANS -3.5! 

15* HAWKS/WOLVES NBA SHARP WINNER on Wolves -5½ -110

My money is on the Timberwolves to cash in a win and cover as a 5.5-point home favorite against the Hawks. Minnesota's losing streak is up to 12 games and this just feels like the perfect spot for that to come to an end. Atlanta is one of the worst road teams in the league and the Hawks are absolutely decimated right now with injuries. I just don't see Atlanta keeping this one close at all. BET THE WOLVES -5.5! 

20* PACERS/RAPTORS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Raptors -4½ -110

My money is on the Raptors to cash in an easy win and cover as a 4.5-point home favorite against the Pacers. This is just too good a price to pass up with Toronto at home. Raptors are on a roll right now with 11 straight wins and the Pacers have not looked good at all in their 3 games since Oladipo returned from injury. He's shooting awful and they are losing to bad teams at home with him in the lineup. BET THE RAPTORS -4.5! 

20* SPURS/LAKERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Spurs +11 -105

My money is on the Spurs to cash in a cover as a 11-point road dog at the Lakers in Tuesday's NBA action. While I'm not expecting San Antonio to win this game, I think there's way too much value here to pass up. Spurs have won their last two and covered 3 straight. Lakers are still dealing with the affects of Kobe's death and I could see them really struggling to find a rhythm going into the All-Star break. Either way I think it's asking a lot for them to put away SA by double-digits. BET THE SPURS +11! 

15* 76ERS/HEAT NBA SHARP WINNER on Heat -2 -110

My money is on the Heat to cash in a win and cover as a slim 2-point home favorite against the 76ers. I just don't get why the books keep giving this Philadelphia team so much love on the road. The 76ers are a mere 9-17 SU and 9-16-1 ATS away from home this season. They are also 0-5-1 ATS last 6 as a road dog. Miami on the other hand is sitting at 21-3 SU and 15-8-1 ATS at home and have covered 6 of 7 at home vs a team that's won fewer than 40% of their road games. BET MIAMI -2! 

20* MAGIC/HORNETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Magic -3½ -110

My money is on the Magic to cash in a win and cover as a 3.5-point road favorite at Charlotte in Monday's NBA action. Orlando comes in having lost and failed to cover 5 straight, but it's been against a brutal stretch. The last two coming against the Heat and the previous 3 against the Clippers, Celtics and Thunder. Prior to that stretch of games the Magic had covered 8 of their previous 11 and I look for them to make easy work of a Hornets team that is looking more and more like the worst team in the league. BET THE MAGIC -3.5! 

15* WARRIORS/WIZARDS NBA SHARP WINNER on Warriors +6 -110

My money is on the Warriors to cash in a cover here as a 6-point road dog at Washington in Monday's NBA action. I get Golden State is one of the worst teams in the league, but they are coming off a 131-112 win at Cleveland and there's just not a team the Wizards should be laying this many points to. BET THE WARRIORS +6! 

20* NUGGETS/PISTONS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Nuggets -2 -110

My money is on the Nuggets to cash in a win and cover as a slim 2-point road favorite against the Pistons in Sunday's early NBA action. I just think Denver is being way undervalued right now with all their injuries. They are a deep team and have some major momentum coming in after a 106-100 win against the Jazz at home on Thursday and then a 127-115 win at Milwaukee Friday. Detroit has lost 5 straight, failing to cover all 5 and are not a team I would trust in the slightest to show in this spot. BET THE NUGGETS -2! 

15* WARRIORS/CAVS NBA SHARP WINNER on Warriors +3 -105

My money is on the Warriors to cash in a cover as a 3-point road dog against the Cavs. I know Golden State isn't a team you want to be backing a lot on the road, especially with a small line, but Cleveland is such a mess that it's worth a look. Cavs are also playing their 4th game in the last 6 days and have been playing zero defense of late. BET THE WARRIORS +3!  

20* HEAT/MAGIC NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Magic +3½ -105

My money is on the Magic to cash in a cover as a 3.5-point home dog against the Heat in Saturday's NBA action. Easy play on Orlando. Heat are just not the same team on the road. Miami is 21-3 at home and just 10-11 on the road. Magic are 13-11 at home and out for revenge from a loss at Miami in their last game. BET THE MAGIC +3.5! 

15* HEAT/MAGIC NBA SHARP WINNER on Heat vs Magic under 208 -110

My money is on the UNDER 208 in Saturday's NBA action that has the Heat visiting the Magic. I think we are going to see both teams really bring it on the defensive end in this one, as both are going to be extremely fresh. Miami is playing on their 3rd game in the last 8 days and Orlando hasn't played since visiting Miami on Monday. Also, the fact that these two just played should only benefit the two defenses. BET THE UNDER 208! 

15* BLAZERS/LAKERS NBA SHARP WINNER on Lakers -10½ -110

My money is on the Lakers to cash in a win and cover as a 10.5-point home favorite against the Blazers in Friday's NBA action. This will be LA's first game since the tragic death of Kobe and this is simply not just another game. I think we are going to see LeBron go full on Mamba mode the rest of this season and it starts tonight. I think there's potential here for a really special performance by the Lakers and I jsut don't see Portland being able to hang around at all. BET THE LAKERS -10.5! 

20* RAPTORS/PISTONS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Pistons +5½ -110

My money is on the Pistons to cash in a cover as a 5.5-point home dog against the Raptors in Friday's NBA action. Toronto comes in having won 9 straight, but I think it has them a bit overvalued here on the road in this spot. Tough spot for the Raptors playing on no rest and Toronto has had to travel quite a bit over the last week. They have also been far from dominant here of late on the road against sub-par teams. BET THE PISTONS +5.5! 

20* HORNETS/WIZARDS NBA SHARP WINNER on Hornets +4½ -110

My money is on the Hornets to cash in a cover as a 4.5-point road dog at Washington. Charlotte returned from their trip overseas with an impressive 97-92 home win against the Knicks and I look for them to carry that momentum on to the road against a struggling Wizards team that is likely to come out flat with just one day of rest after a length 4-game road trip. BET THE HORNETS +4.5! 

20* GRIZZLIES/KNICKS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Grizzlies -2 -110

My money is on the Grizzlies to cash in an easy win and cover here as a slim 2-point home favorite against the Knicks. This is just too good a price to pass up with Memphis given how well they are playing. Grizzlies are 10-2 over their last 12 games. Knicks just lost at Charlotte last night, scoring a mere 92 points and are just 2-7 ATS last 9 when playing on 0 days of rest. BET MEMPHIS -2! 

15* SUNS/MAVS NBA SHARP WINNER on Suns vs Mavs under 230½ -110

My money is on the UNDER 230.5 in Tuesday's NBA action that has the Mavs hosting the Suns. Dallas just played last night in OKC in a game that finished up 107-97 for a combined total of 204 with a total of 222.5. Suns have no been playing well offensively and this is one of those games where I don't think the Mavs will be looking to push the pace as much as normal, as they are not only playing on no rest but their 3rd game in 4 nights. BET THE UNDER 230.5! 

15* PELICANS/CAVS NBA SHARP WINNER on Pelicans -6 -110

My money is on the Pelicans to cash in a win and cover as a 6-point road favorite at Cleveland in Tuesday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up with New Orleans. Pelicans are a team to watch out for now that Zion is in the mix. He hasn't just been good in his first 3 games back, he's been great. Cavs have been a dumpster fire all season and are playing on no rest. BET THE PELICANS -6! 

20* KNICKS/HORNETS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Knicks +3 -110

My money is on the Knicks to cash in a win and cover as a 3-point road dog against the Hornets in Tuesday's NBA action. This is just too good a price to pass up with New York in this spot. Knicks have covered 5 straight and are fresh off a 13-point home win over the Nets. Charlotte has lost 8 straight and are playing on just 3 days rest after Friday's game in France. I still think the Hornets will be dealing with some jetlag in this one. BET THE KNICKS +3! 

15* SPURS/BULLS NBA SHARP WINNER on Spurs -2 -110

My money is on the Spurs to cash in a win and cover as a slim 2-point road favorite at Chicago. I know this is a tough spot for San Antonio playing on no rest, but I still like them to take down a struggling Chicago team. Bulls have been awful against good teams this season and while they are 5-4 in their last 9, those 5 wins have come against the Pistons, Wizards, Cavs (twice) and Timberwolves. BET THE SPURS -2! 

20* CAVS/PISTONS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Cavs +7 -110

My money is on the Cavs to cash in a cover here as a 7-point road dog against the Pistons. I get Cleveland is a mess right now, but no way should the Pistons being laying this kind of number with the injuries they are dealing with. Not to mention the Cavs played Detroit tough in their home-and-home series earlier this month, losing by just 2 at home and winning by 3 on the road. It's also not like the Pistons are playing great. Detroit just lost their last two at home and are a mere 6-14 ATS last 20 games. BET THE CAVS +7! 

15* WIZARDS/HAWKS NBA SHARP WINNER on Wizards +2 -110

My money is on the Wizards to cash in a win and cover as a slim 2-point road dog against the Hawks. Most will look to fade Washington as a small road dog, but the Wizards have covered 3 straight, winning two of those outright, including a 12-point win at Cleveland as a 2.5-point dog in their last game. BET WASHINGTON +2! 

20* RAPTORS/SPURS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Spurs +2½ -110

My money is on the Spurs to cash in a win and cover as a 2.5-point home dog against the Raptors. Toronto comes in having won 6 straight and it has them favored in a game they shouldn't be. San Antonio has been much better of late and should be able to take advantage of a tired Raptors team that has been traveling all over the place and playing their 3rd game in 5 days. BET THE SPURS +2.5! 

15* SUNS/SPURS NBA SHARP WINNER on Suns +4½ -105

My money is on the Suns to cash in a win here as a 4.5-point dog at San Antonio in Friday's NBA action. This might seem like a great price to back the Spurs, but I think this is a bit of a flat spot after a huge effort in Wednesday's prime time game against the Pelicans, which was hyped way up with the debut of Zion. Suns are also a great covering road team, going 9-4 ATS as a road dog this season. BET THE SUNS +4.5! 

20* ROCKETS/WOVLES NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Wolves +5 -110

My money is on the Timberwolves to cover as a 5-point home dog against the Rockets in Friday's NBA action. Houston snapped their 4-game losing streak with a 121-105 blowout win over the Nuggets, but that was at home and Denver had a sorts of key guys out with injuries. I'm just not buying the Rockets are fixed and Minnesota is going to put up a fight here after getting annihilated in the first two meetings with Houston this season. BET THE TIMBERWOLVES +5! 

15* GRIZZLIES/PISTONS NBA SHARP WINNER on Grizzlies +2 -105

My money is on the Grizzlies to cash in a win and cover here as a slim 2-point road dog in Friday's NBA action. I think we are getting a great price here on Memphis coming off a couple of bad losses at home against the Pelicans and at Boston. Prior to that the Grizzlies had won 7 straight and Detroit is a team they should and will beat. Pistons getting too much love off a 127-106 win at home against a struggling Kings team. BET THE GRIZZLIES +2! 

20* MAVS/BLAZERS NBA WISEGUY TOP PLAY on Mavs -2 -110

My money is on the Mavs to cash in a win and cover as a slim 2-point road favorite at Portland in Thursday's NBA action. Easy fade of the Blazers. Portland has been sucking money from their backers all season and come in just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 and a mere 3-12 ATS over their last 15. Dallas will be motivated off a loss at home to the Clippers and to also start out a tough 3-game road trip with a win. BET THE MAVERICKS -2!
