Western Conference clash here today has Minnesota hosting Denver. This is a battle between the two teams tied for 2nd place. Both Denver and Minnesota are tied with 47-21 records, both a half game back of the Oklahoma City Thunder for top spot in the West. That makes this a big game here tonight between these teams. The Nuggets are 32-34-2 ATS overall. They had their five game win streak snapped last game at Dallas, 105-107, as a 1-point dog, losing on a Kyrie Irving shot at the buzzer. The Nuggets have been hot though, winning 11 of their last 13 games. They are also 9-3-1 ATS their last 14. The Nuggets are 19-15 S/U and 14-19-1 ATS on the road this season.

03-18-24 | Knicks v. Warriors -5.5 | 119-112 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 33 m | Show | |
Another East vs West clash here on Monday has the Ny Knicks on a West Coast swing as they face Golden State tonight. The Knicks are 4th in the East with a 40-27 record and 4.5 games back of 2nd place Milwaukee. No one is catching the Celtics in the East, as they hold a 9.5 game lead. The Warriors are a percentage point ahead of the Lakers for 9th place in the West. Only three games separate them from 6th place Sacramento. That 6th place spot is guaranteed while 7 thru 11 must to the play-in round. The Knicks have won three in a row and are 2-0-1 vs the spread. The Knicks have been battling some injuries with guard O.G. Anunoby listed as questionable and F Julius Randall still out. Golden State is coming off a win at the Lakers, 128-121, as a 2-point dog. They are just 17-17 S/U and 13-20-1 at home this year. They have done well vs the East though, going 17-8 S/U and 16-9 ATS this season. Steph Curry returned vs the Lakers and it made a big difference after missing three games. Klay Thompson also looks to be getting better off the bench. He's scored 21 or more points in four of his last five games. With the Warriors healthy tonight and Curry and Thompson both playing, I'll lay the points with the Warriors in this one. |

03-18-24 | Wolves -6 v. Jazz | 114-104 | Win | 100 | 10 h 33 m | Show | |

The Wolves have won two straight games including their last game vs these Jazz in Utah, 119-100, as a 8-point favorite. They are also 23-13 S/U and 19-15-2 ATS on the road this year. The Jazz are 29-38 S/U and 36-30-1 ATS on the season. They are 1-4 S/U and 2-3 ATS their last five games. In addition, they are now 3-12 S/U and 5-10 ATS their last 15 games. I expect an outcome similar to when these teams met on Friday with the T'Wolves winning and covering. Play Minnesota. |

Last game on the schedule today is the Big 10 Conference Championship as Illinois takes on Wisconsin. Wisconsin one of those teams that might not get to the NCAA without a win here today as they are 22-12 overall. The Badgers are 3-0 in this tourney after wins over Maryland, Northwestern and then yesterday beating top seeded Purdue, 76-75, as a 6-point dog.

The have beaten Iowa, Ohio State and then yesterday over Nebraska, 98-87 to advance to the championship game today. They have covered two of the three games, failing just vs Ohio State by two-points. Illinois is 18-13-2 ATS overall and 3-1 ATS in neutral site games this year. Illinois the best team left in this tourney after Purdue went out yesterday. I'll take the Illini here today. |

Early action in the NBA here on Sunday has a big West vs East clash as the Milwaukee Bucks host the Phoenix Suns. The Milwaukee Bucks are in 2nd in the East, one game ahead of the Cleveland Cavaliers but 9.5-games back of Boston for the top spot. The Suns are in 6th spot in the West, just a half game ahead of the Kings and one game ahead of the Mavericks. They hold that last guaranteed spot and don't want to fall into the play-in spots. The Suns are a difficult team to get behind of late as they are just 4-4 S/U their last eight and 2-7 ATS their last nine games. They are coming off a win at Charlotte their last game, 107-96 as a 10 point favorite. The Phoenix Suns have not been a reliable squad to back recently. They are only 4-4 in their last eight games, covering the spread on just two occasions in that span. The Milwaukee Bucks continue to succeed, issuing a 7-3 record in their last ten games. In addition, they are averaging 112.5 points in the last five games, below their season average. The Bucks are also coming off a home win over Philly, 114-105, as a 7-point favorite. They returned home for that game after a four game West road swing. Before the road trip they had won six straight games and covered five of those. Milwaukee playing better ball and with the home court here today and needing just over a straight-up win, I'll take Milwaukee. |

The Rams are 20-12-2 ATS on the season and 4-1-1 ATS in neutral site games. They are also 4-1 S/U and ATS in their tourneys this year. This should be a close game but I'm taking VCU. |

The Thunder are coming off a win over Dallas on Thursday, 126-119 as a 10.5-point favorite. They are 4-1 S/U and 1-4 ATS their last five games. They have been a good road team with a 19-13 S/U and 17-14-1 ATS mark. Memphis is 1-3 S/U and ATS its last four games including losing the last game at home to Charlotte, 98-110, as a 2.5-point dog. The Grizzlies having scoring issues as they have 98 or fewer points in three of their last four games. They are just 8-26 S/U and 12-22 ATS at home with a -7.4 point differential.

However, the outcome wasn't so good at Utah State back on Jan 20 where they lost 62-83 as a 13-point dog.

They are also, 7-1 S/U their last eight and 3-4-1 ATS. The Aggies have played four games on the neutral site this year and are 4-0 S/U and 3-1 ATS.

Pacific Division clash here in the NBA tonight has the Sacramento Kings hosting the LA Lakers. The Kings are 37-27 overall and 25-37-3 ATS while the Lakers are 37-30 S/U and 31-35-1 ATS. Both teams likely will be in the postseason as 11th place Houston now 4.5 games back of 10th place Golden State. However, if these teams want a guaranteed playoff spot they will need some wins. Sacramento is 7th and just a half game back of that 6th and final guaranteed spot. The Lakers are two-games back of the Kings. Yet here tonight the Lakers are favored on the road at Sacramento. The Lakers have won two straight games, both at home. That make them 4-2 S/U and 3-3 ATS their last six games. LA is 12-19 S/U and 13-18 ATS on the road this year.

Not sure why the Kings are a small home dog here tonight but I'll take them plus the small points. Play Sacramento. |

The Bearcats are 4-6 S/U and 6-4 on the road and 1-2 both S/U and ATS on neutral sites. Kansas finished the regular season at 22-9 and likely will make the NCAA, though that's not a given at this point. The Jayawks are coming off a loss at Houston, 46-76, as a 7.5-point dog. That makes their third loss in their last four games both S/U and ATS. Not good to come into the conference tourney on a slump as Kansas is doing. Moreover, the Hawks are just 3-6 ATS their last nine games. They finished 13-16 ATS on the season and 3-6 ATS on the road. These teams last met on Jan 22 in Kansas with the Jayhawks winning on their homecourt, 74-69, as a 8-point favorite. I like Cincinnati here today as the Jayhawks are slumping. Take Cincinnati. |

The Dukes bring a four-game win streak into this tourney game and are 3-1 ATS. These teams last met on Feb 20th at Duquesne wit the Dukes winning 81-66, as a 9.5-point favorite. Duquesne is 2-1 S/U and 1-2 ATS on neutral site courts this year. A lot of points to lay in this conference game for Duquesne. While I expect them to win, I do look for St Louis to put up a good fight and get inside the number in this one. Play St Louis. |

Early action here in college tourney play has Central Florida taking on BYU in the Big 12 tourney. BYU finished 5th with a 10-8 conference record and overall mark of 22-9. UCF was near the bottom half of the standings with a 8-11 conference record and overall mark of 17-14. UCF opened Big 12 play yesterday with a decisive win over Oklahoma State, 77-62, as a 4-point favorite. That makes two wins in a row and three covers in a row for the Golden Knights. They are also 4-2 S/U and 5-1 ATS over their las six games. These teams met on Feb 13 at BYU with the Cougars taking a close matchup, 90-88 as a 12.5-point favorite. BYU plays their first game of the tourney today. They last played on March 9th and beat Oklahoma State, 85-71, as a 13.5-point favorite. That was a rebound win after losing at Iowa State the game before, 63-68, as a 7.5-point dog. The Cougars have been inconsistent of late, going 4-3 S/U and 5-2 ATS their last seven games. The Cougars are 3-6 S/U and ATS on the road this year and 3-1 S/U and ATS in neutral site games. UCF already played this BYU team close on the road once, I look for them to do it again here today. Take the points with UCF. |

03-12-24 | Wisc-Milwaukee +4.5 v. Oakland | Top | 76-83 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 59 m | Show |
Horizon League Championship Game here on Tuesday with Wisconsin Milwaukee taking on Oakland for the automatic NCAA bid. Wisconsin Milwaukee played last night and beat Northern Kentucky, 82-75, as a 1.5-point dog. The Panthers shot 45.9% from the field and 33.3% from the 3-point arc. They held N.Ky to just 391% from the field shooting. That makes six straight winners for the Panthers. They are also 3-1 ATS their last four games. The Oakland Golden Grizzlies are 22-11 now on the season after beating Cleveland State last night, 74-71, as a 3.5-point favorite. The Grizzlies have won three straight games and seven of their last eight. They are also 5-3 ATS in their last eight games. Even though they won last night, they were outshot 41.3% to 38.7%. What helped them was holding Cleveland State to just 18.8% from the 3-point arc. Even match here today for the Championship. I like the points in these kind of games and my own number has this game closer to a pick contest. Take Wisconsin Milwaukee. |

03-11-24 | Suns -6.5 v. Cavs | 117-111 | Loss | -108 | 7 h 6 m | Show | |
The Cleveland Cavaliers are 3rd in the Eastern Conference with a 41-23 record, just a half game back of second place Milwaukee. First place Boston is well out in front of the pack with an 8-game lead. Tonight, the Cavs will host the Phoenix Suns. The Cavs have been just fair of late, going 5-5 S/U and 3-7 ATS their last 10 games. In addition, the Cavs are 3-10 ATS their last 13 games. Now they are battling the injury bug. Guard Donavan Mitchell is expected to be out though officially he's listed as questionable. Evan Mobley and Max Strus also are both out. The loss of three starters will come into big play here tonight against a Phoenix team that has both Booker and Durant providing offensive power. The Suns had their two-game win streak snapped by Boston in the last game, 107-117. Still, they are a decent road team with a 16-13 S/U record. For me here tonight, it's the injuries to Cleveland that will have me taking the Suns in this game. Play Phoenix. |

03-11-24 | East Tennessee State +10 v. Samford | Top | 69-76 | Win | 100 | 6 h 25 m | Show |
It's the SoCon Tournament Championship here tonight as East Tennessee State takes on Samford for that bid to the big dance. East Tenn St Buccaneers got here just barely with a win over Chattanooga on Sunday, 85-84. This will be the team's fourth game in row with wins over VMI, UNC Greensboro and then Chat. They are also 5-0 S/U and ATS in their last five games having covered vs Chat as a 5-point dog. The Samford Bulldogs got here with a win over Furman, 84-77. The Dogs got wins over Mercer and Furman to get here. They are 3-0 S/U and 2-1 ATS their last three games. Samford is 2-0 this season vs E.Tenn State winning the last game at home vs the Bucs, 87-71 as a 10.5-point favorite. Samford a huge 9.5-point favorite in this Championship game. I realize they have beaten E.Tenn two times this year, but beating a team three times in a row is tough. Plus E.Tenn has been hot winning five in a row. Samford likely to win this game, but E.Tenn has been playing with each team in the tourney thus far. I look for a much closer game then the odds are showing us here tonight. Take E.Tennessee State. |

03-10-24 | Bucks v. Clippers +5.5 | 124-117 | Loss | -112 | 4 h 6 m | Show | |
East vs West here today as the Milwaukee Bucks head to LA to face the Clippers. The Bucks are 3rd in the East with a 41-23 record. They are just a half game back of 2nd place Cleveland but 8.5-games back of leader Boston. The LA Clippers are 4th in the West with a 41-21 record. The Clippers are within 2.5 games of top seeded Oklahoma City. The Clippers have won two games in a row an four of their last five. The only loss coming at Milwaukee last Monday, 106-113, as a 1.5-point dog. The Clippers are 22-8 S/U and 16-14 ATS on the season. The Bucks are 41-23 S/U and 26-37-1 ATS on the season. The Bucks have lost two straight games on this road trip at Golden State and last game at the Lakers, 122-123. They are 16-16 S/U and 12-19-1 ATS on the road. I will take the Clippers as a home dog here on Sunday. |

Missouri Valley Championship Game from St Louis, MO has Indiana State taking on Drake for the Tourney Title and automatic NCAA bid. The Drake Bulldogs are 2-0 in the tourney thus far with wins over Evansville, 79-58 and then last game over Bradley yesterday, 72-67, as a 2-point favorite. That makes the Dogs on a four game win streak and 3-1 ATS streak. They are a combined 11-6 S/U and 8-9 ATS on the road and on neutral sites this year. The Indiana State Sycamores having a great season at 28-5 now after their two tourney wins over Missouri State, 75-59, and then last game yesterday over Northern Iowa, 94-72, as a 7.5-point favorite. The Sycamores are now 6-0 S/U and 4-1-1 ATS over their last six games. These teams have split the season matchups, with Indiana State winning at home on Feb 3, 75-67, and losing at Drake on Jan 10, 78-89. Now it's the rubber game but I like Indiana State in this one. Play Indiana State. |

03-09-24 | UNLV +6.5 v. Nevada | 65-75 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
A big Rivalry and Silver State battle as UNLV heads North to Reno to take on Nevada. Nevada is 3rd in the Mountain West with a 12-5 record, a half game back of Boise State and one game back of leader Utah State. UNLV is tied with Nevada at 12-5 as both teams can greatly improve their conf tourney seedings with a win here today. UNLV is 19-10 S/U and 18-9 ATS overall. They have been excellent on the road with a 7-2 S/U and ATS mark in nine games. The Runnin' Rebels have also been hot, winning five straight games both S/U and ATS including a home win over San Diego State in their last game, 62-58. Their last loss was actually at home to this Nevada team on Feb 17th, 66-69. So the Rebs will look to avenge that home loss here tonight. Nevada is 25-6 overall and 20-10 ATS on the season. They are 14-2 S/U and 9-6 ATS at home. The Wolfpack have also been hot, winning six straight games and going 5-1 ATS. The Rebels have lost just one of their last 11 games and that came to this Nevada team by just 3-points. The 6.5-point line looks awfully big for Nevada to cover as both teams play excellent defense. I'm taking the visitors in this one. Play UNLV. |

03-09-24 | Connecticut v. Providence +9.5 | 74-60 | Loss | -110 | 8 h 0 m | Show | |
No 2 ranked U Conn hits the road to play Providence here today in their regular season finale. U Conn is 27-3 S/U and 19-11 ATS on the season. They are 7-3 S/U and 6-4 ATS on the road with all three of their losses coming away this year. The Huskies have won three straight games since their loss to Creighton. They are also 6-1 ATS in their last seven games. The Huskies have dominated the Big East conference with a 17-2 record with Creighton a distant second at 13-6. Despite what happens today, the Huskies are a lock for a No 1 seed in the NCAA. The question today is, do the Huskies have any real motivation to play. They have the conference locked up, they have a No 1 seed in the NCAA pretty much theirs. Providence is 19-11 overall and 17-12-1 ATS on the season. They are 14-3 S/U and 8-8-1 ATS at home. The Friars snapped a two-game losing streak with a win last time at Georgetown, 71-58, as a 8-point favorite. The are 4-1 S/U and 2-2 ATS their last four. Providence is in a three way tie for fifth in the Big East. A loss could see them drop as far as eighth. A loss could also mean playing this same U Conn team in the tournament next week. U Conn has little incentive in this game while Providence does. I look for a stellar effort today by the Friars on their home court. Play Providence. |

03-09-24 | Bulls +7 v. Clippers | 102-112 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 11 m | Show | |
East vs West here early on the schedule as the Chicago Bulls head West to take on the LA Clippers. The Bulls hold onto the 9th spot in the standings, which means they have a Play-In spot right now in the postseason. The Bulls trail 6th place Miami by four games for that guaranteed playoff spot. The Clippers are 4th in the West with a 40-21 record. They are two games back of third place Denver and three games back of first place Oklahoma City. They also lead 7th place Sacramento by 4.5-games. The Bulls bring a 3-game win streak into today's contest and have covered two of those three. All three of those wins coming on this West road swing with wins over Sacramento, Utah and last game at Golden State, 125-122. The Bulls are also 17-14-1 ATS on the road with a -3-point differential. The Clippers rebounded from their loss at Milwaukee on Monday, 106-113, with a win at Houston, 122-116, as a 6.5-point favorite. They are 3-3 S/U their last six games and 2-6 ATS their last eight games. They return home after that three game road trip. The Clippers are around a 6-to-7 point favorite here tonight. I see these teams as very equal and will gladly take the points with the Bulls here tonight. |

03-09-24 | Kentucky +7.5 v. Tennessee | Top | 85-81 | Win | 100 | 4 h 60 m | Show |
SEC action here today as we get ready to head to the conference tournament. No 15 Kentucky is tied for second at 12-5 with South Carolina and Auburn. No 4 Tennessee holds the top spot in the conference at 14-3 overall. Kentucky has won four straight games and six of the last seven as they look to improve in the conference seeding. They are coming off a thumping of Vandy on their home court, 93-77. Tennessee has high hopes this postseason. HC Rick Barnes has been to the Final Four with Texas in 2003. However, at Tennessee has never gotten past the Sweet 16. The Vols bring a seven game win streak into today's contest, including their last game with a win over South Carolina, 66-59. This game will be the fast paced Kentucky team against a very good defensive Tennessee club. The first matchup between these clubs in Knoxville was a real shootout with Tennessee taking that game, 103-92. Kentucky needs this game to improve their seed while Tennessee already has the top spot in next week's tourney locked-up. For me, motivation looks to be on the visitor's side today. I'll take Kentucky plus the points. |

03-08-24 | Boise State +8 v. San Diego State | 79-77 | Win | 100 | 10 h 39 m | Show | |
Mountain West Conference game here as the top of the conference standings are crowded and right now the tournament looks to go many ways. Utah State holds the top spot at 13-4, but three teams right behind them at 12-5 including Nevada, Boist and UNLV. Plus San Diego State is just a game back at 11-6. Still, for some reason Boise is a 7.5-point dog here tonight. My own lines have this game closer to -3 or -4. Boise had its five-game win streak snapped last time out by Nevada, 66-76, as a 6-point favorite. They are also 5-1 ATS their last six games. Boise averages 73.6 ppg on the road while allowing 70.1 ppg. They are also 6-3 S/U and 5-4 ATS on the road. The San Diego State Aztecs also coming off a loss at UNLV, 58-62, as a 2.5-point favorite. San Diego State is 14-0 S/U and 8-4 ATS at home this year. This looks to be a great matchup here tonight. I just believe the line is way too high on San Diego State. I'll take the points with Boise. |

Minnesota is the top team in the West, a half game ahead of Oklahoma City and one game ahead of Denver. The T'Wolves have won two straight game including last night at Indiana, 113-111 as a 1-point dog. The Wolves are 21-11 S/U and 17-13-2 ATS on the road as they play the 2nd of a back-to-back spot here tonight. The Wolves are just 1-5 ATS in their last six games. The Cavs are 40-22 S/U and 31-29-2 ATS on the season. They are coming off a loss on Wednesday at Atlanta, 101-112, as a 3-point dog. The Cavs are 20-11 S/U and 15-16 S/U at home this season. They are also one of the East teams that have done well vs the West, going 13-6 S/U and 10-9 ATS on the season. Cavs just a 1-point home favorite here tonight so we only need a straight-up win. I'll take the Cavaliers to just that tonight. Play Cleveland. |

03-07-24 | Spurs v. Kings -10.5 | 129-131 | Loss | -115 | 10 h 48 m | Show | |
A pair of Western Conference teams meet here on Thursday. The Sacramento Kings are 7th right now in the West. That's important since seed 7 thru 10 make the postseason but have to go to the Play-In Round. The Kings are just a half game back of Phoenix for that guaranteed 6th place and 1.5-games back of 5th place New Orleans. As for San Antonio, sorry, no postseason for you as you are the worst team in the West. The Spurs are just 13-49 on the season with a 29-32-1 spread mark. The Spurs are coming off a loss at Houston, 101-114, as a 7.5-point dog. The Spurs are 6-28 S/U and 16-18 ATS on the road. The Kings are coming off a win on the road at the Lakers, 130-120, as a 2.5-point dog. The Kings trailed by nine points after the first quarter but then outscored the Lakers by 24 points in the 2nd quarter on their way to the win last night. That makes the Kings 5-3 S/U and 4-4 ATS in their last eight games. Kings need wins over these bad teams if they want to get one of those guaranteed playoff spots. Take Sacramento. |

03-07-24 | Pacific v. Pepperdine -9.5 | 43-102 | Win | 100 | 5 h 9 m | Show | |
West Coast Conference Tourney action here on Thursday as this conference tourney begins their opening round. Pacific is the last seed in the conference and will take on 7th seed Pepperdine. The Pacific Tigers are just 6-25 on the season and did not win a single conference game as they went 0-16. You have to go all the way back to December 30th for the last time the Tigers won a game and that was against Cal Maritime, 80-66. This team also doesn't cover spreads, going 4-12 in their last 16 games. The Pepperdine Waves are 12-19 S/U and 12-17 ATS on the season. They are 2-2 both S/U and ATS in their last four games. One of those was a win and cover over Pacific, 89-70. They swept the season series with Pacific, taking the first meeting too back on Jan 11th, 93-78. Looks like another blowout win here in Vegas tonight for the Waves. Take Pepperdine. |

03-06-24 | Thunder -13 v. Blazers | 128-120 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |
The Oklahoma City Thunder are 2nd in the West, just a half game back of the Timberwolves. They have a 42-19 overall record and 38-22-1 spread mark. They look to rebound after a thrashing they took at the Lakers in their last game, 104-116, as a 1.5-point favorite. The final score was closer then what the game was most of the second half. Still, the Thunder are 7-2 S/U and ATS in their last nine games. They are also 18-13 S/U and 17-13-1 ATS on the road. The Portland Trailblazers won't be in the postseason as they sit next to last in the West, 15-games out of the last playoff spot. Portland is 17-43 S/U and 27-31-2 ATS on the season. After a nine game losing streak S/U and 2-7 ATS mark, the Blazers have won two of their last three games S/U and are 3-0 ATS. They lost at Minnesota their last game, 114-119, but covered the 14-point dog line. However, two of those wins were over Memphis which is just one spot higher in the standing then Portland. The Blazers are 9-20 S/U and 10-18-1 ATS at home. I'm taking the Thunder here tonight as they drive for the Conference crown. |

03-06-24 | Bucks v. Warriors -3.5 | 90-125 | Win | 100 | 9 h 22 m | Show | |
The Milwaukee Bucks make the trip out West and will play Golden State here today. The Warriors are holding onto that last postseason spot as they are 10th. They do have a comfortable lead though as Utah is now 5-games back. However, they can improve their play-in spot as they are just a half game back of the Lakers, one game back of Dallas and two games back of Sacramento. Moreover, a Guaranteed playoff spot is just 3-games back of Phoenix. The Warriors are coming off and embarrassing loss at Boston, 88-140. Golden State will look to rebound here tonight as they have to atone for that thumping they took last game. The Milwaukee Bucks are 2nd in the East, 7.5-games back of the Celtics. They are just a half game ahead of the Cavs for third place. The Bucks are 6-0 S/U and 5-0-1 ATS in their last six games. They are also 16-14 S/U and 12-17-1 ATS on the road. They haven't done well vs the West, at least as far as the spread goes with a 7-13 record this year. For me, Golden State will be at their best tonight as they look to atone for that loss at Boston. Even with Milwaukee on a six game win streak I'm taking the Warriors in this one. |

Atlantic 10 clash here on Wednesday has 2nd place Loyola Chicago Ramblers taking on Davidson. Loyola is 13-3 in the conference, one game back of leader Richmond. Meanwhile, Davidson is near the bottom of the pack with a 5-11 conference record. Loyola is 21-8 overall and has won eight of the last nine games and 11 of the last 13. They are also 8-1 ATS their last nine. Their only loss during that span was at St Bonny's, 64-79, as a 3-point dog. Loyola is also 6-4 S/U and ATS on the road this year. Davidson is 15-14 overall and looks to snap a 3-game losing streak here tonight. They are coming off a loss at home to U Mass, 67-69, as a 1-point favorite. The Wildcats are 9-6 S/U and 5-8 ATS at home this year. I look for Davidson to struggle both offensively here tonight and on the boards. I'm going to take Loyola, which is the better team all around. |

Now they have to hit the road to Cleveland. The Cavs are having a fine season with a 39-21 record. They are coming off a loss to the NY Knicks, 98-107, as a 4-point favorite. They Cavs are 19-11 S/U and 14-16 ATS at home. I'm looking past all the streaks and stats in this game. I'm looking for a Boston letdown here today. Cavs in the perfect spot for an upset win or at least the cover as a big home dog. Play Cleveland. |

Stetson is 11-2 S/U and 5-5 ATS at home this season with a +17.6 point differential. This is a home game for Stetson and they get the 4-days rest while Queens had to play last night. I'll take Stetson here tonight. |

Quarterfinals of the ASUN Tournament here today from Richmond, KY. Jacksonville had to play last night and defeated Kennesaw State, 92-86 as a small dog. The Dolphins had lost four of their previous five games. They average 70.8 ppg while allowing 71.7 ppg this season. The Eastern KY Colonels are 17-13 on the season and coming off a loss at Lipscomb, 67-81. They led at the half but were destroyed in the second half of that game getting outscored 29-51. The Colonels average 81.3 ppg and allow 76.8 ppg. Eastern is the No 1 seed in the conference tournament. I expect a high scoring game here tonight but will side with Eastern Kentucky in this one. |

03-05-24 | Purdue v. Illinois -2 | 77-71 | Loss | -110 | 7 h 46 m | Show | |
A pair of Big 10 Powerhouses and ranked teams meet here tonight as No 12 Illinois hosts No 3 Purdue. The Purdue Boilermakers won the matchup in January, 83-78. Purdue should secure a No 1 seed in the NCAA's. They already have a share of the Big 10 regular season title. They can take the title with a win tonight. Illinois has won three straight games, five of the last six and eight of the last 10. Illinois is 15-2 S/U at home and tonight they need little more than to beat Purdue outright. Illinois gave Purdue all it could handle in the first matchup, losing by just five points. This should be another wild game, but I'm taking Illinois in this one. |

03-05-24 | Alabama v. Florida -1.5 | 87-105 | Win | 100 | 7 h 46 m | Show | |
SEC action here today has No 16 Alabama taking on Florida. These teams met just a few weeks ago in Tuscaloosa where Alabama had to go to OT to beat the Gators, 98-93. Alabama is 12-4 in conference and tied with S.Carolina for second place behind 13-3 Tennessee. Florida is 10-6 in conference and 6th place. Alabama has dropped two of its last three games, including that big loss to Tennessee. The Tide have one of the best offenses, averaging over 90 ppg, but it's their defense that isn't good, ranked an SEC-worst wit 79.3 ppg. Moreover, the Tide allow 88.6 ppg on the road. The Gators should make the NCAA with an at large bid. They are 31st in the Kenpom rankings. Florida with the edge at home here today. The Gators offense against the bad Alabama defense should keep them in this game. Take Florida. |

03-04-24 | Bulls v. Kings -6.5 | 113-109 | Loss | -109 | 10 h 32 m | Show | |
East vs West here tonight as the Sacramento Kings host the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls are 9th in the East, two games ahead of 10 place Atlanta and four games ahead of dropping out of the Postseason. The Kings are 6th in the West, tied with the Suns for that final guaranteed playoff spot. Both teams are just one game ahead of the Mavs. 6th place is important because if you fall below that you have to go to the play-in round. The Bulls are coming off a loss to Milwaukee, 97-113, as a 4.5-point dog. They are 5-6 S/U and 6-5 ATS their last 11 games. The Bulls are 12-17 S/U and 15-13-1 ATS on the road with a -3.8 point differential. They are only 5-16 S/U and 10-11 ATS as an away dog. The Kings are coming off a win at Minnesota, 124-120, as a 6.5-point dog. They are 4-2 S/U and 3-3 ATS their last six games. They are also 16-10 S/U and 11-15 ATS at home. Always tough for those East teams to come out to the West Coast. I'm going to take the Kings in this game tonight. |

03-03-24 | Pacers -6.5 v. Spurs | 105-117 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 43 m | Show | |
It's East versus West today in the NBA as the Indiana Pacers take on the San Antonio Spurs. The Pacers are eighth in the East with a 34-27 record. More importantly, this game is important to them because they sit just a half game back of sixth place Miami. Sixth place and above means no play-in game for the postseason. It's very tight race in the East because Philadelphia, Miami, Orlando and the Pacers are all within one game of each other in the standings. The San Antonio Spurs having a pretty bad season as they sit last in the West at 12-48 on the season. The Pacers looking to rebound from their loss at New Orleans 102-129 as a 5 and 1/2 point underdog. The Pacers have done well recently winning four of the last six games straight up and three of their last five against the spread. The Pacers are 13-15 on the road and 14-14 against the spread. The San Antonio Spurs, well they've just had a poor season but they are coming off a win at home over Oklahoma City 132-118 as an 11 point underdog. That snapped a five game losing streak by the Spurs. Still they've won just two games in the last 14. The Spurs are 6-21 straight up at home and 12-14-1 against the spread. They have a minus 5.8 point differential at home this season. I'm going to take the Pacers on the road here today against a very bad San Antonio club, especially with the Pacers in this hot playoff positioning. They can use every game they can win. Take the Pacers |

03-03-24 | Rutgers v. Nebraska -8 | 56-67 | Win | 100 | 8 h 30 m | Show | |
Big 10 action here on Sunday has Nebraska taking on Rutgers. Nebraska having a decent season as they sit fourth in the Big 10 with a 10-8 record and an overall mark of 20-9. They look to be one of those teams on the bubble this year so every win is important and that means today's game for Nebraska. Rutgers coming in around the latter half of the pack with a 7-10 conference mark and a 15-13 overall record. Rutgers is coming off a win against lowly Michigan 82-52 as a seven and a half point favorite. That snapped a three-game straight up and spread losing streak by the Scarlet Knights. Rutgers is just 3-7 straight up and 4-6 against a spread on the road with a minus 9.2 point differential. Nebraska had its four game winning streak snapped last time out at Ohio State losing 69-78 as a 2.5 underdog. The Corn Huskers have won four of their last five games both straight up and against the spread. Nebraska is 17-1 at home and 14-4 against the spread with a + 13.8 point differential. They are one of the better covering teams this season at home and I look for that dominance to continue here today against Rutgers. Take Nebraska. |

03-03-24 | Michigan v. Ohio State -11 | 61-84 | Win | 100 | 6 h 59 m | Show | |
Big 10 action here today on Sunday has Michigan taking on Ohio State. Neither of these teams are battling for the conference lead but they are looking for maybe a little better positioning, though Michigan is in last place in the conference with a 3-15 record and an overall mark of 8-21. Ohio State comes in a couple rings higher on the ladder at 7-11 in conference and 17-12 overall. It's been a rough season for Michigan having lost 16 games of their last 18 overall they don't do any better for the bettors as they've covered just three of those 20 games. Michigan is 2-8 straight up and against the spread on the road with a -12.8 point differential. Ohio State has won two straight games including last time out over Nebraska 78-69 as a two and a half point favorite and they have won three of their last four games and covered five of their last six games. The buckeyes are 12-4 straight up at home and 6-9-1 against the spread they have a plus 9.1 point differential on their home court. I look for a domination today as Ohio State puts Michigan away. Take Ohio State |

St Mary's is 14-3 straight up at home and 9-7 against the spread. While Gonzaga has a little revenge factor on their side here tonight I'm still going to side with the home team in this one and take St Mary's. |

Temple is for 4-11 in conference and 11-17 overall. Tulsa is coming off a loss at Texas San Antonio 73 to 89 as a two and a half point underdog.

The Temple Owls have won three straight games and they've covered five of their last six. They are coming off a win at Rice 65-43 as a 5-point underdog. The owls are five and seven at home straight up and six and five against the spread. These are two teams that likely won't go very far in the tournament. But tonight I like Temple minus the points. |

The Minnesota Timberwolves have taken over 1st place in the Western Conference, leading Oklahoma City by one game and Denver by 1.5-games. Sacramento is 8th and looks to have a solid hold on one of the play-in spots. However, they are just one game back of 6th place New Orleans, the last spot in the guaranteed playoffs without a play-in. The Kings have lost two straight games, both S/U and ATS. They are coming off a loss at Denver, 96-117, as a 7.5-point dog. That makes the Kings 3-4 S/U and 2-5 ATS their last seven games. They Kings are 7-10 and 10-7 ATS as an away dog this season.

02-29-24 | Wizards v. Lakers -9 | 131-134 | Loss | -107 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
The LA Lakers playing the 2nd of a back-to-back spot here on Thursday. Normally I avoid these situations, but against a weak team like Washington they should have little issue. That Lakers didn't need to travel at all either since the played the Clippers last night. The Lakers made a massive comeback last night as they rallied from 21-points down to beat the Clipper behind Lebron's 34-points. The Lakers are 9th in the West, just a half game ahead of 10th place Golden State. The Jazz are six-games back in 11th place. Only the top 10 teams make the postseason. Washington is tied for last in the East with Detroit with just nine wins and 49 losses. The Wizards have lost 12 straight games and are 5-7 ATS during that losing streak. The Lakers are 8-3 S/U and 6-5 ATS their last 11 games. The Lakers are 19-9 S/U and 13-14-1 ATS at home. Lakers don't want to fall in the playoff picture and today's team is the perfect opponent after a big win last night. Play the Lakers. |

They had a bit of a letdown in that game after a big win at Arizona two days earlier, 77-74. Still, the Cougars are 8-1 S/U and 7-2 ATS their last nine games. Washington State is 13-1 S/U and 8-6 ATS at home with a +16.1 point differential. Cougars won't let down here tonight. First they will want to rebound from that costly loss last game and second they are just a half game back for the PAC-12 regular season crown and top seed. Take Washington State tonight. |

Western Conference matchup here today has 5th place Phoenix Suns taking on the 12th place Houston Rockets. The Suns are tied with the Pelicans for a playoff spot, but just a half game ahead of Dallas for 7th place, which drops them into the Play-In category. Phoenix will need to win these games like today to avoid that 7th spot and get the automatic playoff spot. Houston is now 5.5-games back of the last play-in spot as they are fading fast. The Rockets have lost two straight games both S/U and ATS, both to the OKC Thunder. They are also 3-9 S/U and 4-8 ATS their last 12 games. The Rockets are 5-23 S/U and 9-19 ATS on the road this year. The Suns snapped a two-game losing streak with a win at home over the Lakers in their last game, 123-113 as a 3.5-point favorite. The Suns are 8-4 S/U and ATS in their last 12 games. They are 19-11 S/U and 12-17-1 ATS at home this year. Suns can ill afford to lose these type of games. I look for them to be focused here tonight. Play Phoenix. |

02-28-24 | Grizzlies v. Wolves -12 | 101-110 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 48 m | Show | |
Western Conference clash has the 1st place Minnesota Timberwolves hosting the 13th place Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies will not make the post season, especially when they lost guard Ja Morant in the 1st half of the season. The Grizzlies are 9.5-games back of the final playoff spot. They have lost two straight games and 11 of their last 13 games. They are also 6-6 ATS their last 12 games. The Grizzlies have actually been a better road team then home team, posting a 13-16 away record and 16-13 ATS mark. Still, it will be a tall order tonight against the best team in the West. The T'Wolves have won two straight games and nine of their last 12 games. They are also 8-4 ATS their last 12. They are 21-6 S/U and 14-12-1 ATS at home this year. Minnesota should have little issues tonight against an undermanned Memphis club. Play the Timberwolves. |

Wichita is 3-12 in confere3nce and 11-17 overall. Wichita State is coming off a loss to Temple, 66-72, after a win over Tulsa, 79-63. The Shockers have covered three of their last six on the road. UAB is coming off a win at Tulane, 78-67, as a 2.5-point dog. The Green Wave have won five of their last six games. The Green Wave are about 8-point favorites here tonight. And, while on paper they are the better team with better talent, these late conference games sometimes have little meaning to teams. That is the case for UAB here tonight as they can't catch conference leader South Florida which is 14-1 in conference play. UAB will conserve its energy for the tournament grueling schedule. Take the points with Wichita State tonight. |

02-28-24 | IUPU Ft Wayne v. Wright State -5.5 | Top | 79-77 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 39 m | Show |

The Wright State Raiders are coming off a big win over Oakland, 96-75, as a 4.5-poing road dog. That makes three straight wins both S/U and ATS for the Raiders. Moreover, they have scored at least 93 points in each of those three blowout wins. Wright State is also 8-2 S/U and 6-4 ATS their last 10 games. The Raiders flexing their offensive might the last three games, ranking them 5th nationally in scoring with a 86.2 average. They also lead the Horizon league in field goal percentage and are very good from the free throw line. I don't believe that IPFW will be able to contain this excellent offensive Wright State attack tonight. Play Wright State. |

Colorado State is 7th in the conference with a 8-7 record and 20-8 overall mark. The Nevada Wolfpack have been on a roll, winning and covering their last three games and six of the last seven games. They have done well on the road too with a 6-3 S/U and ATS record with a +1.7 point differential. Colorado State Rams look to snap a two-game losing streak tonight. They are coming off a loss at UNLV, 60-66, as a pick. They have covered six of their last eight games. They are 14-1 S/U and 8-5 ATS at home this year. These teams met in Reno back on Jan 24th with Nevada taking that game, 77-64, as a 3.5-point favorite. Colorado State laying around 7 or 7.5-points here tonight. The way Nevada plays on the road that is too many points. I look for this game to come down to the wire. I'll take the generous points with Nevada. |

The teams met at OKC on Sunday with the Thunder pulling away in the 2nd half for a easy win and cover, 123-110, as a 6.5-point favorite. Now they are up to 10-points tonight as the oddsmaker adjust after that game. The Rockets are dropping fast in the West, sitting 12th and now 4.5 games out of the last playoff spot.

The Sacramento Kings are 5th in the West with a 33-23 record. They are 6.5-games back of first place Minnesota. However, they are also tied with Phoenix and New Orleans and Dallas is just one game back. This is important since if you fall out of the top six then you have to go to the play-in round.
