Sports Picks & Predictions

This is a play on the MURRAY ST. RACERS for our NCAA Tournament Enforcer. This is an intriguing matchup between two teams that have the top two scorers in the nation among teams playing in the NCAA Tournament. Murray St. matches up well here and has the ability on both sides of the ball to pull off the outright upset. Ja Morant, who is averaging 24.6 ppg, 10 apg and 5.5 rpg and is projected to be a top-three pick in the NBA draft this summer in leading the Racers to the OVC Championship. For as great as Morant is at scoring, no one in college basketball plays as critical of a role in complementing the entire team. Morant is No. 1 overall in assist rate per KenPom, which contributes directly to the Racers' No. 5 national ranking in two-point field-goal percentage. Marquette got off to a great start this season but is wilting at the wrong time as the Golden Eagles have lost five of their last six games coming into the NCAA Tournament. The offense is very good but the Racers were undefeated (17-0) this season when holding teams below 70 points. Murray St. is 11-3 ATS away from home after one or more consecutive wins this season. 10* (761) Murray St. Racers

This is a play on the YALE BULLDOGS for our NCAA Tournament Afternoon Dominator. We played against LSU in its first game in the SEC Tournament as there are a lot of distractions with this team right now and we see it continuing. The Tigers will be without their head coach, Will Wade, who was suspended by the school due to recruiting violations. This is just the second NCAA Tournament appearance for the Tigers in the last 10 years. Interim coach Tony Benford was able to lead the Tigers to a convincing win in the regular season finale but that came against Vanderbilt which did not win a single game in the SEC this season. LSU beats teams by turning them over, but Yale has the guards that can take care of the ball. Yale can make shots, and that will keep them in this game. The Bulldogs have won three straight games that included taking the two games in the Ivy League Tournament. Yale was able to pull off an upset over Baylor in the 2016 NCAA Tournament, and this team has the same type of feel. The Bulldogs are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games against teams with a winning percentage above .600. 10* (767) Yale Bulldogs

This is a play on the ARIZONA ST. SUN DEVILS for our CBB Wednesday NCAA Tournament Opener. Arizona St. is in a unique situation where it is playing a play in game for the second straight season after losing to Syracuse last year. The Sun Devils lost four of their last five games and went down in the first round of the Pac 12 Tournament so they came in with no momentum but this year is a different story. Arizona St. is back on track after winning six of its last eight games with both losses coming against Oregon, the last coming in overtime in the conference tournament. The Sun Devils are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a straight up loss. St. John's stumbled badly down the stretch as it lost five of its last seven games heading into the NCAA Tournament, the latest being a 32-point loss against Marquette in the Big East Tournament. St. John's biggest weakness this year has been on the glass, where it gets out-rebounded by an average of 5.8 boards per game while Arizona St. is 15th in the nation in rebounding. That is bad news as St. John's is 3-12 ATS in its last 15 games away from home after three straight games being outrebounded by its opponent by six or more. 10* (713) Arizona St. Sun Devils

This is a play on the NEW YORK KNICKS for our NBA Wednesday Enforcer. New York was coming off a last second win over the Lakers on Sunday and to no surprise, the Knicks were unable to keep the momentum going as they were blown out in Toronto the next night. They are back home getting an absurd number and taking nothing away from Utah, but there is no reason it should be laying this price. New York has been a double-digit home underdog only three times this season and those games were against Golden St., Boston and Toronto. New York is 15-3 ATS in its last 18 games after trailing in their previous game by 15 or more points at the half. Utah is riding a four-game winning streak, covering all of those games as well, and currently sitting in a tie for seventh place in the Western Conference. The Jazz have been road favorites in their last four games and 20 times overall on the season and this is the biggest they have been favored by in all of those games. Here, we play on home teams coming off a loss against a division rival going up against an opponent after two consecutive covers as a favorite. This situation is 46-18 ATS (71.9 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (570) New York Knicks

This is a play on the SAN DIEGO TOREROS for our CBB Tuesday NIT Enforcer. Expectations were high in San Diego this season and while a trip to the NCAA Tournament eluded them, the Toreros have their sights set on another championship. A challenging early schedule saw San Diego go 12-4 with four Pac-12 Conference opponents, where San Diego went 2-2, and it carried momentum into the WCC season but injuries to Isaiah Wright and Olin Carter III were major factors despite Isaiah Pineiro having an All-WCC First Team season. San Diego is 20-8 ATS in its last 28 games as a road underdog. Memphis had its AAC Tournament run end on its home floor against Houston and the three-point loss was very misleading. The Tigers shot just 23.5 percent from the floor but were able to keep it close thanks to going 22-26 from the free throw line. That free throw advantage will not be in play tonight as the Toreros have shot 81.6 percent from the line over their last five games. The Tigers are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a straight up loss. 10* (685) San Diego Toreros

This is a play on the CHARLOTTE HORNETS for our NBA Tuesday Supreme Annihilator. The Sixers have won four consecutive games, including Sunday's 130-125 victory at Milwaukee in which Joel Embiid scored 40 points, grabbed 15 rebounds and handed out six assists as Philadelphia officially clinched a playoff berth. They will rest him tonight however as they have a game tomorrow at home against Boston. Philadelphia has been inconsistent on the road as it is just one game over .500 and despite Embiid being out, it has gone from road underdog to a road favorite and going back, it is 1-5 ATS in its last six games against teams with a losing straight up record. A 93-75 loss at Miami on Sunday marked a season-low in points for Charlotte as it fell two and a half games behind the Heat for eighth place in the Eastern Conference. The Hornets are 21-14 at home and the value is here based on the fact they have not covered a home game since February 22nd. The Hornets are 4-1-1 ATS in their last six games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. Here, we play on home underdogs revenging two straight losses where opponent scored 100 or more points, off a road loss scoring less than 80 points. This situation is 47-20 ATS (70.1 percent) since 1996. 10* (552) Charlotte Hornets

This is a play on the BOSTON CELTICS for our NBA Monday Supreme Annihilator. This is a revenge game for Boston and while it was a while back, that is one the Celtics have not forgotten about. Jamal Murray scored 48 points in the Nuggets' 115-107 in Denver on Nov. 5 and jacked up a last-second three-pointer to try to reach 50. Boston guard Kyrie Irving was not happy and threw the basketball into the stands after the buzzer, drawing a fine. Denver hits the road following three straight wins, all at home where they are 30-6, but come in just 16-16 on the road. Denver is 9-21 ATS in its last 30 road games off a home win. After a slump that was questioned by many, Boston has won five of its last six games to move a game behind Indiana for fourth place in the Eastern Conference. The Celtics are 26-10 at home and going back, they are 27-13 ATS in their last 40 games revenging a same season loss. 10* (538) Boston Celtics

This is a play on the ST. BONAVENTURE BONNIES for our CBB Sunday A-10 Championship Dominator. A trip to the NCAA Tournament is on the line for two teams that would have been in the NIT at best. St. Louis has had matchup advantages in the first three games of the Atlantic Ten Tournament but that will not be the case today. The Billikens size has caused problems especially against Davidson yesterday where they held the Wildcats to 25.9 percent shooting from the floor while winning the battle of the boards 41-26 but the size of St. Bonaventure neutralizes that here. It showed in the first meeting which happened to be the regular season finale for both teams with the double-bye on the line. St. Louis, despite winning the rebounding battle had only eight assists to 13 turnovers against a tricky St. Bonaventure zone. Now, this being the fourth game in four days for St. Louis, the challenge becomes even tougher when playing a six-man rotation. The Billikens are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game while the Bonnies are 5-1 ATS in their last six games against teams with a winning straight up record. 10* (648) St. Bonaventure Bonnies

This is a play on the DUKE BLUE DEVILS for our CBB Saturday ACC Championship. Duke is coming off a big win over North Carolina last night as it avoided the three-game season sweep to the Tar Heels and while an emotional letdown is expected by some, not with this team. The Blue Devils defeated the Seminoles, 80-78, back on Jan. 12 in Tallahassee. In that game, Zion Williamson, who has been red hot since his return, was forced to leave early with an eye injury, opening the door for fellow freshmen R.J. Barrett and Cam Reddish to shine. Florida St. is coming off an even bigger win as it defeated Virginia by 10 points as a nine-point underdog. That has the makings of a letdown because of the size of the upset. The number is big here but it is big for a reason as we play against underdogs with a winning percentage of .800 or better coming off a win over a conference rival as an underdog of six points or more, playing a team with a winning record. This situation is 32-9 ATS (78 percent) since 1997. 10* (634) Duke Blue Devils

This is a play on the NEW ORLEANS PELICANS for our NBA Saturday Supreme Annihilator. Both Phoenix and New Orleans are coming off losses last night and we like the Pelicans to bounce back as they remain on their home floor. Anthony Davis sat out Friday's game but is expected to start against the Suns, continuing the trend of playing in just one game in back-to-back sets. Point guard Elfrid Payton has had three consecutive triple doubles, finishing with 14 points, 12 rebounds a career-high 16 assists in a 122-110 home loss to Portland on Friday. Phoenix played a good game last night against Houston as it led pretty much throughout but got outscored by 12 points in he fourth quarter. Phoenix is just 29 when playing with no rest this season including 1-3 in the second of back-to-back road games. The Suns have covered all of those games however, they were getting 13.5, 9.5, 12 and 17 points in those games so this is a whole different scenario. New Orleans is 9-1 ATS in its last 10 games against teams with a winning percentage of .250 or worse while going 12-3 ATS off a home loss this season. Here, we play om teams in a game involving two teams averaging 102 or more ppg, after three straight losses by 10 points or more. This situation is 61-36 ATS (62.9 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (506) New Orleans Pelicans

This is a play on the ARIZONA ST. SUN DEVILS for our CBB Friday Pac 12 Late Dominator. While Oregon may be rolling with six straight wins, we feel the Ducks are a false favorite here. They have covered all six of those games as well but despite the recent run, Oregon is still on the outside looking in to the NCAA Tournament so it needs to win the Pac 12 Tournament to most likely get in. They are playing their best basketball of the season but are still weak down low with the absence of Bol Bol and could struggle hear against a very deep Arizona St. frontcourt. The second-seeded Sun Devils dominated the first half and stretched their lead to 23 early in the second half but let UCLA back in it by going nearly nine minutes without a field goal. That was the third straight win and cover for Arizona St. so it comes into the semifinals with its own momentum and cannot be taken lightly here. Both teams dominated on their home floors in the two meetings this season and it is Oregon that has struggled more away from home, going 4-8 ATS against winning teams. Meanwhile, the Sun Devils are 5-1 ATS in their last six games against teams with a winning straight up record. 10* (850) Arizona St. Sun Devils

This is a play on the PHILADELPHIA 76ERS for our NBA Friday Supreme Annihilator. Philadelphia fell back into fourth place in the Eastern Conference after Indiana won last night and third place is coveted, especially for the Sixers. The third place team will face Brooklyn, Detroit or Miami in the first round of the playoffs while the fourth place team would face Boston, something the Sixers want to avoid as they do not match up well. When asked if his team had overlooked Sacramento in an earlier 115-108 loss on Feb. 2, and perhaps even in last season's series sweep at the hands of the Kings, head coach Brett Brown insisted only that it surely would not be the case in Friday's rematch. The Kings will be playing the second half of a road back-to-back after a tightly contested 126-120 loss at Boston on Thursday. They have lost two straight games and while the playoffs were once a possibility, those chances are likely gone now as they are five games behind the Clippers. Sacramento is 8-24 ATS in its last 32 road games after two straight losses by six points or less while Philadelphia is 19-7 ATS in its last 26 home games when playing with two days of rest. 10* (574) Philadelphia 76ers

This is a play on the TULSA GOLDEN HURRICANE for our CBB Thursday AAC Dominator. Tulsa, which earned the seventh seed, was solid but unspectacular this season, going 18-13 in the regular season including 8-10 in the AAC. The Golden Hurricane had won five of their previous seven games before closing out the season with a three-point loss at Memphis. They will be out for revenge here as they lost by 20 points at SMU back in January which was one of four conference losses coming by at least 18 points. That is a big reason Tulsa is an underdog here despite being the higher seed to we will grab the generous value. The Mustangs lost nine of their final 11 games of the regular season so they do not have momentum on their side even if there is talent on the roster in guys like Jahmal McMurray and Ethan Chargois. They did win their regular season finale but this team is so banged up that they will not be able to make any sort of run in the tournament. SMU is 1-10 ATS in its last 11 games away from home after one or more consecutive wins. 10* (734) Tulsa Golden Hurricane

This is a play on the MISSISSIPPI REBELS for our CBB Thursday SEC Dominator. Mississippi opens up SEC Tournament play against Alabama on Thursday night from Nashville as a likely NCAA Tournament lock. Most projections have the Rebels as a No. 8 or No. 9 seed for the tournament, and a loss to Alabama likely can't do more than drop the Rebels a spot or two. Still, moving up is a possibility with a good tournament run and it begins here. Alabama meanwhile will need a couple wins to secure a berth to the big dance as the Tide are a projected bubble team heading into the SEC Tournament. The Tide beat the Rebels 74-53 in the only prior matchup in January, scoring 23 points off turnovers and corralling 20 offensive rebounds. It was one of the worst performances of the season for the Rebels but the postseason is different altogether. One big edge is at the free throw line where Mississippi is hitting 78.5 percent compared to just 66.9 percent for Alabama. 9* (742) Mississippi Rebels

This is a play on the ST. JOHNS RED STORM as part of our CBB Wednesday Trifecta. St. John's is one of just three teams in the Big East Conference that has accumulated 20 wins. That being said, the Red Storm are on the cusp of making the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2014-15 and the first under head coach Chris Mullin. St. John's has arguably the best backcourt in the conference with four double-digit scorers led by Shamorie Ponds and Mustapha Heron, who are averaging a combined 37.8 ppg, and this is the time of year where the backcourt is huge. With the St. Mary's win last night, one more at-large slot has been taken and there are now basically 16 bubble teams vying for eight spots so a loss here likely ends any shot of getting in. DePaul was not as bad as usual as it finished 7-11 in the conference including two wins over the Red Storm but is in a tough spot here playing its first neutral court game of the season but it is basically a road game at MSG. 10* (654) St. John's Red Storm

This is a play on the DETROIT PISTONS for our NBA Wednesday Supreme Annihilator. Things did not go right for Detroit on Monday against the Nets. The Pistons were on an offensive roll until they got to New York as they shot a season-worst 27.8 percent from the field and 23.5 percent from three-point range. They trailed by as much as 31 points and got outscored by 30 points in the paint. They are currently sitting in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, trailing the Nets by a half-game, and they are three games up on Miami and win here would move them four up plus the head-to-head series tiebreaker. The Pistons are 5-0 ATS in their last five games against teams with a losing straight up record. Miami had its four-game winning streak snapped with a loss against Toronto on Sunday which also snapped a four-game home winning streak. The Heat haven't done a good job of protecting their home court this season as they're just 15-19 at American Airlines Arena, which is the worst home record among playoff contenders, including a 119-96 loss to Detroit on Feb. 23. The Heat are 0-4 ATS in their last four games following a double-digit loss at home. Here, we play on road teams where the line is +3 to -3 after trailing in their previous game by 20 or more points at the half going up against an opponent after scoring 100 points or more in two straight games. This situation is 25-7 ATS (78.1 percent) since 1996. 10* (547) Detroit Pistons

This is a play on the PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS for our NBA Tuesday Supreme Annihilator. The Clippers have won five straight games while covering their last seven so it is no surprise they are getting the majority of the action tonight as a home underdog. The problems here is the timing of this game as Los Angeles is coming off a game last night, a big win over the Celtics, while the Blazers have been off since Saturday. The Clippers are now 20-12 at home which is the worst home record of all playoff teams in the Western Conference so there is not a huge edge in that regard either. The Clippers are 2-6 ATS in their last eight games against teams with a winning percentage above .600. Portland snapped a two-game losing streak with an unimpressive win over Phoenix which was its third straight non-cover. Portland can move back into a tie for fourth place in the Western Conference with Oklahoma City and going back, the Blazers are 5-0 ATS in their last five road games against teams with a winning home record. Here, we play against home teams where the line is +3 to -3 that are allowing 103 or more ppg going up against an opponent after scoring 55 points or more in the first half in two straight games. This situation is 155-109 ATS (58.7 percent) since 1996. 10* (545) Portland Trail Blazers

This is a play on the GONZAGA BULLDOGS for our CBB Tuesday Enforcer. Gonzaga is coming off another easy victory as it has not been tested by any team in the West Coast Conference. The Bulldogs have won every game in the conference by double-digits, the first team to do so since the UNLV Rebels in the early 90s. They again looked solid in Monday's win over Pepperdine as they shot 59.7 percent from the field and led by as many as 41 points. Saint Mary's used to be the one team that gave Gonzaga a battle but that has not been the case this season as Gonzaga won the two regular season matchups by an average of 31 points and steamrolled Saint Mary's 94-46 on Feb. 9. The 48-point margin of defeat was the fourth-worst in Gaels' history and the only time they have lost by 30 or more points during coach Randy Bennett's 18 seasons. They had trouble pulling away from San Diego last night and while getting a ton of points tonight, it will not be enough. Gonzaga is 8-4 ATS this season when favored by fewer than 20 points while the Gaels are 2-6 ATS in their last eight games following a straight up win. Here, we play on neutral court favorites in a game involving two teams outscoring opponents by eight or more ppg, after scoring 85 points or more. This situation is 108-67 ATS (61.7 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (616) Gonzaga Bulldogs

This is a play on the BROOKLYN NETS for our NBA Monday Supreme Annihilator. We played on Brooklyn on Saturday and while it won outright, it failed to cover the short number as it blew a double-digit lead by allowing 35 fourth quarter points. The Nets are now back home in what is another crucial game with a seven-game roadtrip looming, six games against teams in playoff contention. Brooklyn trails the Pistons by a half-game for sixth place in the Eastern Conference and can take over that spot with a win. Brooklyn is 7-2 ATS this season when favored by fewer than four points while going 8-2 ATS in its last 10 games against teams with a winning straight up record. Detroit has won five straight games but four of those came against noncontending playoff teams with the other coming against Toronto which was playing without Kawhi Leonard. The Pistons are 8-21 ATS in their last 29 road games when the line is +3 to -3 while going 1-3-1 ATS in their last five road games against teams with a winning home record. Additionally, we play against underdogs with a winning percentage between .501 and .600 after three or more consecutive wins, playing a winning team. This situation is 78-42 ATS (65 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (526) Brooklyn Nets

This is a play on the ORLANDO MAGIC for our NBA Sunday Supreme Annihilator. Motivation plays a big role this time of year and Orlando clearly has that on Sunday. The Magic are coming off a win over Dallas on Friday which kicked off a stretch of seven consecutive games against opponents that are below .500. Orlando has won nine of its past 13 games to remain a game behind Miami for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. They did fail to cover against the Mavericks but the Magic are 5-2-1 ATS in their last eight games following an ATS loss. Memphis is on a rare winning streak as it has won two straight games, against playoff teams no less, but the Grizzlies have not won three straight games since November, going 0-3 in their last three games following consecutive victories. Going back, the Grizzlies are 9-19 ATS in their last 28 games after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game. 10* (509) Orlando Magic

This is a play on the OHIO ST. BUCKEYES for our CBB Sunday Enforcer. Ohio St. is in must win territory following a pair od losses in its last two games. The Buckeyes were blown out by Purdue last Saturday and then suffered an 18-point loss against Northwestern in their last game which snapped a 10-game losing streak for the Wildcats. The Buckeyes missed their first 13 shots against Northwestern and finished 26.6 percent from the floor, including going 4-26 from long range. The Buckeyes are clinging to an NCAA Tournament berth as they are one of the last four teams in and a win would likely make them a guarantee but a loss means a big run in the Big Ten Tournament is a must. The Buckeyes are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games following an ATS loss. The Badgers have won two straight games with the latest coming against Iowa and it was their first by more than 10 points in the past nine games, so while they are getting it done, it has been far from dominant. That 20-point victory was their first cover in their last seven games and head to a tough environment on Senior Day. 10* (844) Ohio St. Buckeyes

This is a play on the CAL ST. FULLERTON TITANS for our CBB Big West Game of the Year. While UC Irvine ran away with the Big West regular season championship, Cal St. Fullerton put together a great season. The Titans host Hawaii for the final game of the regular season on Saturday as the Titans look to secure the No. 2 seed for the Big West Tournament. They are a game under .500 for the season overall as they played one of the toughest non-conference schedules in the country but rebound to post a 10-5 conference record with one game left. The Titans have been a different team thus far in Big West Conference play as they are shooting 46.4 percent from the field and have shot better than 50 percent in seven of those games. The Titans have failed to cover their last four games which is putting value in this number at home where they are 9-2, losing only to Irvine within the conference. Hawaii opened its final roadtrip of the season with an upset win at UC Davis on Thursday which was just its third road win of the season and it snapped a three-game losing streak. 10* (706) Cal St. Fullerton Titans

This is a play on the BROOKLYN NETS for our NBA Saturday Supreme Annihilator. This is a huge game for Brooklyn. The Nets are dueling Detroit, Miami, Orlando and Charlotte for the final three playoff spots in the Eastern Conference and they have the toughest upcoming schedule in the NBA so these are the games they need. Eight of the next nine games are on the road and following a home game on Monday, they begin a seven-game roadtrip with four straight games against Western Conference playoff contenders. The Nets are 5-0 ATS in their last five road games against teams with a home winning percentage of less than .400. The Hawks season has been done for a while and they are riding a two-game losing skid. Atlanta is just 11-20 at home which is the fifth worst home record in the entire league. The Hawks are 9-21 ATS in their last 30 home games against teams with a losing road record. Here, we play against home underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points after allowing 110 points or more in three straight games going up against an opponent after a combined score of 205 points or more. This situation is 80-50 ATS (61.5 percent) since 1996. 10* (571) Brooklyn Nets

This is a play on the TEMPLE OWLS as part of our CBB Saturday Trifecta. We played against Central Florida on Thursday and it was able to sneak out a cover against Cincinnati to close its home portion of the schedule at 15-2. It was the eighth straight cover for the Knights which remain in third place in the AAC, one game behind the Bearcats and they hit the road in a classic letdown situation as they have secured a first round bye in the upcoming AAC Tournament. Central Florida is just 5-4 on the road and will be facing a revenge-minded Temple team. While this is the final home game for the Temple seniors, the 2018-19 season is the 13th and final year at the helm for head coach Fran Dunphy so the Owls will be out to send him out as a winner where he has compiled a 129-41 record at home. Another streak is on the line as the Owls have won on Senior Day for 11 straight seasons, not losing since Dunphy's first year in 2006-07. Temple is 19-7 ATS it its last 26 games as a home favorite of three points or less. 10* (666) Temple Owls

This is a play on the CHARLOTTE HORNETS as part of our NBA Friday Trifecta. The Hornets lost on Wednesday against Miami which knocked them out of the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference and this has turned into a must win game. Charlotte is wrapping up a three-game homestand before starting a difficult four-game roadtrip, where it is 9-21 on the season, that starts in Milwaukee and Houston before finishing up with rematches against Washington and Miami. The Hornets are 4-1 ATS in their last five home games against teams with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Washington is still in the hunt as it trails Miami by three games but making up ground here will be a challenge considering its 8-25 road record is third worst in the Eastern Conference and fifth worst in all of the league. Washington is 6-21 ATS in its 27 road games against teams allowing 106 or more ppg this season while going 1-12 ATS in its 13 road games after allowing 120 points or more this season. 10* (552) Charlotte Hornets

This is a play on the MARYLAND TERRAPINS for our CBB Friday Enforcer. The Terrapins had a solid season going until recently, as they have lost two in a row and three of five, including Tuesday's 69-62 setback at home to Michigan. That was just their third loss at home and first in the conference as they have impressive home wins over Ohio St., Purdue and Wisconsin. Maryland has played the 14th toughest schedule in the country and is expected to play the 11th toughest by regular season's end. The Terrapins have already surpassed their win total from last season despite boasting the third youngest team in the country. The Terrapins are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games following an ATS loss while going 19-8 ATS in their last 27 home games off an upset loss as a favorite. Minnesota has posted back-to-back wins as underdogs, the latest coming at home against Purdue on Tuesday and after the victory, Minnesota students stormed the floor. Beating Purdue marked Minnesota's first Quadrant 1 victory since Jan. 3 at Wisconsin so the Gophers have struggled against the top teams and overall, they are just 2-6 against top 25 power ranked teams. The Gophers are 6-15 ATS in their last 21 games following an ATS win. 10* (854) Maryland Terrapins

This is a play on the STANFORD CARDINAL as part of our CBB Thursday Trifecta. After 23 consecutive conference losses, California has won its last two games but both of those came at home and hitting the road is a different story. The Golden Bears are winless on the season away from home at 0-13, lasing those games by an average of over 15 ppg. That average losing margin is the same in its eight Pac 12 games with only two of those coming by single-digits and they are going to struggle again against the much bigger Cardinal. Stanford has dropped three of its last four games but two of those were on the road and the other coming against first place Washington by just one point. The Cardinal are 10-3 at home with those three conference losses coming by an average of 3.3 ppg and all against teams well above 500. Here, we play on home teams with a winning percentage between .501 and .600 off a cover where the team lost straight up as an underdog, playing a losing team. This situation is 50-25 ATS (66.7 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (630) Stanford Cardinal

This is a play on the PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS for our NBA Thursday Star Attraction. Portland is back home following a seven-game roadtrip where it went 5-2 but two of those losses came over the final three games. The big thing here is that this is the first home game for the Blazers since before the All Star Break, a span of 22 days and they are the last team in the league to have played a home game since the break. Portland is 24-8 at home and has lost here just twice in 2019 and going back, the Blazers are 5-0 ATS in their last five games against teams with a winning straight up record. The span between home games is a huge advantage and one that takes away from the normal contrarian play as the Thunder have dropped their last eight games against the number, having lost six of those outright. This has put them into a three-way tied with the Blazers and the Rockets for third place in the Western Conference. This is a huge game for Portland as it has lost the first three meetings so a loss would essentially put them two games behind the Thunder. Here, we play against road underdogs against division opponents, off an upset loss to a division rival as a favorite. This situation is 24-4 ATS (85.7 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (550) Portland Trail Blazers

This is a play on the SAN DIEGO ST. AZTECS for our CBB Wednesday Enforcer. Third place in the Mountain West Conference is on the line tonight between Fresno St. and San Diego St., both of which come in at 11-5. While the difference between third and fourth place is minimal, it is more about pride for the Aztecs as they are playing their final home game of the season and will be out for revenge from a four-point loss in Fresno in the first meeting. San Diego St. has been money at home as it has won and covered all eight conference games and this would mark just the second time the Aztecs would go undefeated at home in the MWC over 20 years since they have been affiliated with the conference. Going back, in its last 59 home conference games, the Aztecs are 53-6. San Diego St. is 11-1 ATS in its last 12 home games revenging a road loss. Fresno St. snapped a two-game losing streak with a win over Wyoming last time out and while it has been solid on the road this season, the Bulldogs are in a tough spot here facing a revenge-minded San Diego St. team on Senior Night. 10* (820) San Diego Aztecs

This is a play on the UTAH JAZZ as part of our NBA Wednesday Trifecta. This is the second game of a home-and-home between New Orleans and Utah and the Jazz will be out for some road revenge. The Pelicans beat Utah 115-112 on Monday, extending their winning streak to three games and ending Utah's win streak at four. Prior to the win over the Jazz, New Orleans defeated Denver on the road without Anthony Davis so it has certainly been a surprising run. The Pelicans are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games against teams with a losing road record. The Jazz have been one of the hottest teams in the NBA in the new year, and they have climbed to the sixth spot in the Western Conference after a disappointing start to the season. They have won 18 of their last 25 games and the rest of the schedule is totally in their favor as the Jazz play 16 of their final 20 games against teams currently at .500 or below. Utah is 17-8 ATS after one or more consecutive losses this season. Here, we play on road favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points after a loss by three points or less going up against an opponent after scoring 105 points or more. This situation is 51-23 ATS (68.9 percent) since 1996. 10* (537) Utah Jazz

This is a play on the TORONTO RAPTORS for our NBA Tuesday Enforcer. Houston defeated the Celtics 115-104 in Boston on Sunday with James Harden scoring 42 points before fouling out late in the game. It was the fifth straight win for the Rockets which remain in fifth place in the Western Conference and while they have won three straight games on the road, they are just 16-16 on the highway and going back, the Rockets are 3-12-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win. Toronto remains two games behind Milwaukee for first place in the Eastern Conference and this is a good opportunity to gain some ground following the Bucks loss against Phoenix last night. The Raptors lost 112-107 in overtime Sunday to the Pistons in Detroit, but they have won nine of their past 11 games. Toronto is 17-4 ATS in its last 21 games after failing to cover four of its last five games against the spread. Here, we play on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points in the second half of the season that are between +3 to +7 in scoring differential going up against a team with a +/- 3 scoring differential, after allowing 110 points or more two straight games. This situation is 37-17 ATS (68.5 percent) since 1996. 10* (520) Toronto Raptors

This is a play on the BUTLER BULLDOGS as part of our CBB Tuesday Trifecta. Xavier and Butler have both had disappointing seasons for their standards but it is the former that has put together a run that has put the Musketeers into a tie for third place in the Big East Conference. They have won five straight games to improve to 8-8 but only two games separates eight teams and despite three straight road wins, Xavier is just 4-6 on the road. Butler meanwhile has lost three games in a row, two coming on the road against the top two teams in the conference while the other was at home that came in overtime. The Bulldogs are 11-4 at home with quadruple revenge in play including a brutal one-point loss this season. Butler is 20-8 ATS in its last 28 home games after failing to cover the spread in three or more consecutive games and here, we play against road underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points after going over the total by more than 12 points in two consecutive games, in a game involving two teams with winning percentages between .501 and .600. This situation is 35-9 ATS (79.5 percent) since 1997. 10* (602) Butler Bulldogs

This is a play on the LOS ANGELES LAKERS for our NBA Monday Enforcer. The Lakers are coming off one of their worst losses of the season based on the opponent as they lost by nine points to the Suns which possess the worst record in the NBA and that was just their second win since mid-January. The Lakers are 4-7 in games LeBron James has played since he returned from a 17-game absence because of a groin injury, and they have lost four of five heading into a pivotal matchup tonight against the Clippers. They are 18-13 at home and the Lakers are 24-12 ATS in their last 36 games after failing to cover the spread in two or more consecutive games. The Clippers have won two straight games, most recently a 21-point win over the Knicks on Sunday, while covering their last four games. They are a half game up on San Antonio for seventh place in the Western Conference. This is a huge game for the Lakers to get their mojo back as they have been lost and what better team than to do it against but the rival Clippers. Here, we play on home teams failing to cover the spread in eight or more of their last 10 going up against an opponent after having covered five or six of their last seven against the spread. This situation is 152-96 ATS (61.3 percent) since 1996. 10* (514) Los Angeles Lakers

This is a play on the TCU HORNED FROGS for our CBB Monday Star Attraction. Kansas St. bounced back from its loss to rival Kansas with a win over Baylor on Saturday with a lot left to play for still. If the Wildcats win their final two games, they are guaranteed at least a share of the conference title. Kansas St. improved to 12-2 at home but it is just 6-5 on the road including questionable losses to Texas A&M and Tulsa. While there is a lot on the line for the Wildcats, the same can be said for TCU which is clearly on the bubble in the NCAA Tournament. The Horned Frogs dropped its game against Texas Tech on Saturday and they have now lost five of their last six conference games. A win here and they are likely in but a loss and a tough game at Texas to close the season will make things difficult. This is the final home game of the season for TCU where it is 12-4 and the Horned Frogs are 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games against teams with a winning road record. Here, we play on teams where the line is +3 to -3 that are averaging between 74-78 ppg going up against teams averaging between 63-67 ppg, after allowing 75 points or more two straight games. This situation is 32-8 ATS (80 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (866) TCU Horned Frogs

This is a play on the DETROIT PISTONS for our NBA Sunday Enforcer. The Pistons are coming off an easy win last night in Cleveland and the fact this is a back-to-back means little in this spot. Detroit opened up a 33-point halftime lead and was never threatened in the second half, allowing head coach Dwane Casey to rest his regulars. None of his starters played more than 27 minutes. The Pistons are 18-13 at home and are holding down the No. 7 spot in the Eastern Conference but are just a game and a half out of ninth place so every game is huge at this point. The Raptors concluded a six-game homestand, where they went 5-1, with a come-from-behind win over Portland. They have won four straight on the road but three were against non-playoff teams. Toronto is 8-17 ATS after scoring 110 points or more two straight games this season. Here, we play against favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points with a winning percentage between .600 and ..750 after having won four of their last five games, playing a team with a losing record. This situation is 111-62 ATS (64.2 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (584) Detroit Pistons

This is a play on the GEORGIA TECH YELLOW JACKETS for our CBB Sunday Supreme Annihilator. Georgia Tech got steamrolled at Virginia by 30 points in its last game at Virginia on Wednesday but it returns home where it is 10-7 and playing its final home game of the season. The Yellow Jackets have played a brutal home schedule in the ACC with five losses against teams heading to the NCAA Tournament but they have won all three games against will be non-participants. Georgia Tech is 8-0 ATS in its last eight home when the line is +3 to -3 while going 15-6 ATS in its last 21 games after failing to cover two of its last three against the spread. Boston College is coming off an upset win over Louisville and has now won three of five while covering all five of those games. However, the three wins were all home and the Eagles come in just 2-7 on the road. They have been without second leading scorer Wynston Tabbs for over a month now and it has taken its toll offensively. 10* (832) Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

This is a play on the SACRAMENTO KINGS for our NBA Friday Supreme Annihilator. A big game for playoff implications takes place tonight when the Kings host the Clippers with seventh and eighth place on the line. Sacramento is coming off a pair of losses, most recent on Wednesday by a point in overtime against Milwaukee. The Kings trail the Spurs and Clippers by two games so a win gets them right in the hunt while a loss could be the end. Sacramento is 13-2 ATS as a favorite this season while going 17-8 ATS when playing with double revenge. The Clippers are coming off a loss at Utah on Wednesday to fall back to .500 on the road for the season. While the Kings have thrived as favorites, Los Angeles is 8-16 as a road underdog and on the season, the favorite is 46-17 in Clippers games. Here, we play on home favorites after a game where they covered the spread, in a game involving two teams with winning percentages between .501 and .600. This situation is 97-45 ATS (68.3 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (552) Sacramento Kings

This is a play on the OREGON DUCKS for our CBB Thursday Enforcer. Oregon is back home following a three-game roadtrip where it lost all three games to fall to 6-8 in the Pac 12. Once a lock for the NCAA Tournament, the Ducks are 6-8 in the conference and they can thank that to a 2-5 road record within the conference but they come home where they are 11-4 and looking for payback. Oregon lost in Tempe by 14 points last month and this is a must win situation. The Ducks are 12-3 ATS in their last 15 home games in the second half of the season when playing against a team with a winning record while going 8-1 ATS in their last nine home games after failing to cover the spread in two or more consecutive games. Arizona St. is one of just two Pac 12 teams projected to make the NCAA Tournament but it is an 11-seed so this is not a great team. The Sun Devils are just 4-4 on the road and going back, they are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games against teams with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. 10* (660) Oregon Ducks

This is a play on the INDIANA PACERS for our NBA Thursday Supreme Annihilator. Indiana concluded a 1-2 roadtrip with a loss at Dallas last night but returns home in a very favorable spot. The Pacers are 23-8 at home and still remain a half-game ahead of Philadelphia for third place in the Eastern Conference, which at this point means a date with Brooklyn in the first round of the playoffs and not Boston. Indiana is 8-3 this season when playing with no rest including a perfect 4-0 record when going from the road to home, covering all four of those games. Minnesota also lost last night in overtime in Atlanta and that was a bad loss for its playoff chances as it is four games out of the final spot in the Western Conference. The Timberwolves have not been nearly as good playing with no rest as they are 0-5 in the second of back-to-back road games. Here, we play on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points that are revenging a loss of 10 points or more, off two or more consecutive road losses. This situation is 33-12 ATS (73.3 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (530) Indiana Pacers

This is a play on the VILLANOVA WILDCATS as part of our CBB Wednesday Trifecta. While still successful, it has been a down season for Villanova compared to the last few years and it has been a recent rough stretch as the Wildcats have lost their last three games. Additionally, they have lost four of their last five games but all four of those came on the road and going back, they have won nine straight home games. This is the first time Villanova has suffered three straight defeats since 2012-13. While this is not the final home game of the season, it is the final game at the Finn and it is senior night which makes this an even more special atmosphere. Marquette has won four straight games, covering its last three, and is now in sole possession of first place in the big East Conference. The Golden Eagles are a game and a half ahead of Villanova and can essentially put it away with a win here but the venue and atmosphere will not let that happen tonight. 10* (830) Villanova Wildcats

This is a play on the SAN ANTONIO SPURS as part of our NBA Wednesday Trifecta. The Spurs are back home following a disastrous roadtrip where they went 1-7 with the lone victory coming by just one point over Memphis. This is just the second home game this month where San Antonio is 22-7 on the season compared to 11-22 on the road and it looks to extend a four-game home winning streak. The Spurs have especially dominated in these spots as they are 10-2 ATS as home favorites of six points or less this season, winning by an average of nearly 13 ppg. Detroit has won three straight games and is now 7-1 over its last eight games to move to a game under .500 overall. The Pistons are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference, a game and a half ahead of Charlotte and two and a half games ahead of Orlando but are just 11-17 on the highway. They are 4-9-1 ATS in their last 14 games against teams with a winning straight up record and here, we play on teams in non-conference games, off three or more consecutive road losses. This situation is 79-37 ATS (68.1 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (520) San Antonio Spurs

This is a play on the NEW YORK KNICKS for our NBA Tuesday Enforcer. The Magic are coming off an upset win at Toronto on Sunday to go 6-1 over their last seven games and they are now just a half-game out of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. This spot looks to be ideal as Orlando has won four consecutive road games, all by at least 15 points and over the past 10 games, its average margin of victory is 17.3 ppg. The problem is that the Magic are overpriced and are still just 12-17 on the road and a game on deck against Golden St. could have them looking past the Knicks. New York snapped an 18-game home losing streak with a win over the Spurs on Sunday and can carry that momentum forward here. The Knicks have the second worst record in the league and while talks of tanking continue to make the rounds, these players are playing for their futures and they are in a great spot tonight. New York is 10-0 ATS in its last 10 home games after having won two of its last three games and here ,we play against teams with a winning percentage between .400 and .499 coming off an upset win as a road underdog, playing a losing team. This situation is 67-34 ATS (66.3 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (502) New York Knicks

This is a play on the SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS for our CBB Tuesday Supreme Annihilator. Two NCAA Tournament bubble teams square off Tuesday night and the home team gets the edge tonight. South Carolina is one of the last seven teams out and cannot afford any more marginal losses with just a couple weeks remaining. The Gamecocks lost at Mississippi St. on Saturday by 15 points which was their third straight road loss. They are 6-1 at home in SEC action with the lone loss coming against Tennessee and they are 6-1 ATS in their last six home games overall. South Carolina is 10-2 ATS in its last 12 games off a loss by 10 points or more to a conference rival. Alabama defeated Vanderbilt on Saturday but it was far from impressive as it won by seven points against the Commodores which are 0-14 in the conference. The Tide are just 3-7 on the road with two of those coming in the SEC against the aforementioned Commodores and 3-11 Missouri. Alabama is 29-50 ATS in its last 79 games off a no-cover where the team won straight up as a favorite. 10* (626) South Carolina Gamecocks

This is a play on the KANSAS JAYHAWKS for our CBB Monday Star Attraction. Kansas is coming off one of its worst performances of the season as it lost at Texas Tech by 29 points to fall to 9-5 in the Big XII, two games behind first place Kansas St. The Jayhawks are 2-5 on the road within the conference but a perfect 7-0 at home and it has flourished following a loss last time out. Kansas 90-12 following a loss in the Bill Self era, including 5-1 this season. Since the 2013-14 season, it is now 40-4 following a loss. The Jayhawks are 8-0 ATS following a loss by 20 or more points and this is the perfect spot to keep it going as Kansas has won 32-straight Big Monday games in Allen Fieldhouse. Additionally, Kansas is 17-2 ATS in its last 19 games after allowing 45 points or more in the first half last game. Kansas St. is coming off a 39-point drubbing of Oklahoma St. to make it six wins over its last seven games and sits in first place in the conference. The Wildcats have won four straight road games but this is the biggest test by far as they head to Lawrence at the wrong time. The Wildcats are 2-6 ATS in their last eight games after allowing less than 50 points in their previous game. 10* (866) Kansas Jayhawks

This is a play on the MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES for our NBA Monday Enforcer. Minnesota is coming off a loss at Milwaukee by 12 points on Saturday as it was without Karl-Anthony Towns for a second straight game, the first two games he has ever missed, as he was diagnosed with a concussion. Towns has 37 double-doubles while averaging 23.1 ppg and 12.0 rpg, and the Timberwolves certainly missed him in that loss but he is probable to return tonight. Minnesota is back home where it is 19-10 and on the season, it is 10-2 ATS at home against teams allowing 110 or more ppg. Sacramento is coming off an upset win at Oklahoma City and has moved to within one game of the Spurs and Clippers for eighth place in the Western Conference. The Kings are still just 12-17 on the road and have struggled against better competition for the most part, going 14-22 against teams ranked in the top 16. Here, we play against teams where the line is +3 to -3 after successfully covering the spread in four or more consecutive games, playing five or less games in 14 days. This situation is 47-20 ATS (70.1 percent) since 1996. 10* (578) Minnesota Timberwolves

This is a play on the UNLV RUNNIN' REBELS for our MWC Game of the Year. San Diego St. came into the season with low expectations and a slow start that included losses against California and Brown looked like it was on pace. The Aztecs then opened 1-2 in the MWC but they flipped a switch as they have won seven of their last eight games including a massive win against Nevada by eight points as a 7.5-point underdog in their last game on Wednesday. Now they have to hit the road after that which puts them in a difficult spot and one where revenge comes into play. The Aztecs are 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games. UNLV has won three straight games, albeit against the three worst teams in the conference, but overall the Rebels are 9-5 in the conference. That puts them a half-game behind San Diego St. for fourth place and this game becomes even more important to take the lead over the Aztecs and to avoid the tiebreaker head-to-head sweep. 10* (750) UNLV Runnin' Rebels

This is a play on the MIAMI HEAT for our NBA Saturday Enforcer. Miami opened the second half with a loss at Philadelphia as it allowed 33 fourth quarter points to fall to 26-31 and put it into ninth place following the Orlando win last night. The Heat are now back home where they are just 11-16 on the season but this is their first home game since February 2nd so it is time to turn things around. Miami is 36-20 ATS in its last 56 games after having lost two of its last three games. Detroit is coming off a win in Atlanta last night but it was not easy as it has to overcome a 14-point deficit and won by just three points. The Pistons are 0-4-1 ATS in their last five games when their starting five players combine for more than 160 minutes of the previous day. Here, we play against road underdogs with a winning percentage between .400 and .499 after a road game where both teams scored 100 or more points, playing a losing team. This situation is 49-20 ATS (71 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (544) Miami Heat

This is a play on the MISSOURI ST. BEARS as part of our CBB Saturday Afternoon Trifecta. Missouri St. is coming off a 20-point home loss against Northern Iowa as a six-point favorite which snapped a four-game winning streak as well a 7-1 over its previous eight games. The Bears are 9-6 in the Missouri Valley Conference which puts them just one game behind Drake and Loyola-Chicago for first place. That was just their third home loss of the season which snapped a string of four straight wins here and going back, the Bears are 20-7-1 ATS in their last 28 games following a double-digit loss at home. Indiana St. meanwhile blew out Illinois St. by 23 points but the Sycamores are just 6-9 in the conference including a 2-6 record on the road and both of those wins happened to come in overtime. After a 5-1 start, the Sycamores have won consecutive games only once, going 1-8 in their last nine games following a win and have failed to cover their last six. 10* (632) Missouri St. Bears

This is a play on the OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER for our NBA Friday Enforcer. Utah closed the first half by going 13-3 over its last 16 games and can make a big push down the stretch as it plays just eight of its final 25 games against teams with a winning record. The Jazz face one of those opponents tonight however and going back, they are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games against teams with a winning percentage above .600. Currently, Utah is in sixth place in the Western Conference which at this point would mean another matchup against Oklahoma City in the playoffs. An Oklahoma City win would clinch the season series for the Thunder after Utah eliminated Oklahoma City in the first round of the playoffs last season. The Thunder won 11 of their last 13 games although one of those losses came at New Orleans in the final game before the break. They are 20-7 at home and going back, they are 18-9 ATS as favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points this season. Here, we play against underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points revenging a straight up loss as a favorite, off a cover where the team lost the game straight up as an underdog. This situation is 122-72 ATS (62.9 percent) since 1996. 10* (530) Oklahoma City Thunder

This is a play on the ILLINOIS-CHICAGO FLAMES for our CBB Friday Enforcer. It is a logjam for third place in the Horizon League as two games separate six teams and two of those square off tonight with the bigger opportunity falling on the home team. Illinois-Chicago and Green Bay are tied at 8-6 and a loss here for the Flames would essentially put them two games behind the Phoenix because of getting swept in the season series, thus losing the head-to-head. Illinois-Chicago is coming off a three-game roadtrip where it went 2-1 but had a four-game winning streak snapped in the final game with a tough loss at Youngstown St. The Flames are 11-3 at home and going back, they are 28-13 ATS in their last 41 games as a home favorite of 3.5 to 6 points. Green Bay is coming off a pair of wins at home but it now hits the road where it has struggled to a 3-11 record including a 2-5 record in the conference, both wins coming against Milwaukee and Cleveland St., the two worst teams which are a combined 7-23. The Phoenix are 1-5 ATS in their last six road games against teams with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. 10* (862) Illinois-Chicago Flames

This is a play on the UC SANTA BARBARA GAUCHOS as part of our CBB Thursday Trifecta. UC Santa Barbara returns home following a pair of double-digit losses on the road to extend its three-game losing streak to fall to 6-5 in the Big West Conference. The last time the Gauchos dropped three games in a row was in February of 2017 and prior to the current three-game losing streak, Santa Barbara had never lost more than two in a row, which they did so twice in 2017-18 under head coach Joe Pasternack. They are 10-2 at home with the two losses coming against UC Irvine on Jan. 31, 66-62 in overtime and then 61-57 on Feb. 9 vs. UC Davis, two of the top four teams in the conference. UC Santa Barbara is 14-5 ATS in its last 19 games when playing against a team with a winning record. Hawaii is coming off a pair of wins at home where it has played five of its last seven games and this is just the second roadtrip in a month. The Warriors are just 2-3 on the road and going back, they are 3-12 ATS in their last 15 road games off a home win by 20 points or more. 10* (940) UC Santa Barbara Gauchos

This is a play on the BROOKLYN NETS for our NBA Thursday Enforcer. We waited on this game and as expected, news broke late this morning that Damian Lillard will be available to play and also as expected, the line adjusted because of it. The number moved up a point and a half which adds to the value for the Nets. The Blazers are 10-15 on the road compared to being 24-8 at home and being favored in this spot is a little questionable. The Blazers are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games against teams with a winning home record. Brooklyn is in sixth place in the Eastern Conference, two games ahead of Charlotte, 2.5 games ahead of Detroit and Miami and three games in front of Orlando. At 30-29, the Nets headed into the All-Star break with a winning record for the first time since the 2012-13 season. They are 17-13 at home and they are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 home games against teams with a losing road record. Additionally, Brooklyn is 14-4 ATS in its last 18 games after scoring 105 points or more in three straight games. 10* (506) Brooklyn Nets

This is a play on the PROVIDENCE FRIARS as part of our CBB Wednesday Trifecta. St. John's is coming off an historic win over Villanova over the weekend as it rallied from a 19-point deficit to pretty much lock up an NCAA Tournament berth. With its third win in four games, St. John's moved to above .500 in the Big East for the first time since early January. It was the Red Storm's largest comeback since rallying from 20 down to beat DePaul in 2010, and they handed the Wildcats just their third loss at MSG in the past 22 games. This has letdown written all over it and the Red Storm are 1-4-1 ATS in their last six games following a ATS win. Providence is coming off a pair of losses and has dropped five of its last six games to fall to 4-9 in the conference. The Friars are 9-5 at home and are favored for a reason so there is little risk jumping on this short number. Providence is 6-0 ATS in its last six games coming off two consecutive double-digit losses to conference rivals. 10* (816) Providence Friars

This is a play on the CLEMSON TIGERS as part of our CBB Tuesday Trifecta. Clemson lost a pair of tough games at Louisville and Miami last week, both coming by just one point. Things have been much different at home where the Tigers are 11-2 including four straight wins. They are a bubble team for the NCAA Tournament with main reason being lack of quality wins as Clemson is just 1-8 against ranked within the top 50. It needs to be noted however is that six of those losses came on the road and one of the home losses came against No. 3 Virginia. The Tigers are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 home games against teams with a winning road record. Florida St. has won seven straight games to move to 8-4 in the ACC after a rough 1-3 start. The Seminoles additionally have covered their last five games but that adds to the contrarian value. Florida St. is 3-2 on the road in the ACC but two of those wins came against Miami and Georgia Tech and the losses came against Boston College and Pittsburgh, which are a combined 6-19 in the ACC. 10* (630) Clemson Tigers

This is a play on the TCU HORNED FROGS for our CBB Monday Enforcer. It has been a tough stretch for TCU which has lost two straight games and four of its last six to fall to 5-7 in the Big XII. The Horned Frogs are still projected to make the NCAA Tournament but a loss here could be devastating. They are still ranked a respectable 33rd in the RPI and while the Horned Frogs are 4-7 against the top 50, they are 13-1 against teams outside that group. TCU is 16-5 ATS in its last 21 road games off an upset loss as a home favorite. Oklahoma St. has pretty much cashed it in as it has lost five straight games to fall to 2-10 in the conference with four of those five losses coming by double-digits. The Cowboys are just 6-6 at home and are on pace for their worst home record in nearly two decades. Oklahoma St. is 3-12 as an underdog this season, covering just four of those games. 10* (857) TCU Horned Frogs

This is a play on the EAST CAROLINA PIRATES for our CBB Sunday Enforcer. Tulsa won and covered its last game at Tulane as a road favorite and now it is laying nearly the same amount against a team that is a significant step above the Green Wave. Tulane improved to 5-7 in the AAC as it has now won two straight games but the Golden Hurricane are just 2-6 on the road and going back, they are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games against teams with a winning home record. It has been a tough stretch for East Carolina as it is just 2-10 in the conference but both wins came at home and one of those was against 20-4 Cincinnati. The ATS run has been nearly as bad but of course, that is being taken into consideration with this line. Here, we play against road favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points after beating the spread by 18 or more points total in their last three games going up against an opponent after being beaten by the spread by 42 or more points total in their last seven games. This situation is 49-19 ATS (72.1 percent) since 1997. 10* (816) East Carolina Pirates

This is a play on the DAYTON FLYERS as part of our CBB Saturday Trifecta. VCU rolls into Dayton riding a five-game winning streak and is just a half-game out of first place in the Atlantic Ten behind Davidson. They have covered all five of these games and while the Rams are 12-1 at home, they are just 5-4 on the road and have struggled in spots against teams like this. The Rams are 0-7 ATS in their last seven games in the second half of the season against teams allowing 42 percent shooting or less. Dayton has won four of its last five games including a 29-point win at Rhode Island in its most recent game last Saturday. The Flyers are right in the mix as well as they trail Davidson by just a game and a half in the conference and head back home where they are 11-2 and laying a short number while trying to gain additional ground. Here, we play on teams coming off a win by 15 points or more as an underdog going up against an opponent off a home win by 10 points or more. This situation is 90-44 ATS (67.2 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (670) Dayton Flyers

This is a play on the CHARLOTTE HORNETS for our NBA Thursday Enforcer. Charlotte looks to conclude the first half with a split on this four-game roadtrip and move to within a game of Brooklyn for sixth place in the Eastern Conference. The Hornets have struggled on the road this season but the majority of their losses have come against the NBA elite and overall, they are just 5-20 against teams ranked within the top 16 and those five wins are tied for fourth fewest in the league. They are 22-9 against every other teams and they have gone 6-2 ATS in their last eight games against teams with a losing straight up record. Orlando has won and covered four straight games including the last three on the road but this is a team we cannot buy into yet as it has played down to the opposition as the Magic are just 13-14 against teams ranked outside the top 16. Orlando is 8-20 ATS in its last 28 home games off an upset win as an underdog. Here, we play against teams with a winning percentage between .400 and .499 coming off an upset win as a road underdog, playing a losing team. This situation is 67-33 ATS (67 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (523) Charlotte Hornets

This is a play on the FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL GOLDEN PANTHERS as part of our CBB Thursday Trifecta. Florida International is coming off a pair of road losses to fall two games under .500 in the conference and it is part of 10 teams within three games of second place showing how open C-USA is. This is just the second two-game losing streak of the season for the Golden Panthers as they are 8-2 following a loss including a 4-1 record at home. Additionally, Florida International is 14-4 ATS in its last 18 home games off two consecutive losses of 10 or more to conference rivals. Rice is coming off an upset win at home against Marshall and the Owls check in at 2-9 on the road, one win over Texas Rio Grande Valley from the WAC and the other against 6-18 Charlotte. The Owls have won consecutive games only once this season and going back, they are 5-12-2 ATS in their last 19 games following a straight up win. 10* (606) Florida International Golden Panthers

This is a play on the XAVIER MUSKETEERS as part of our CBB Wednesday Trifecta. Xavier has missed the postseason only once in the last 21 years and it is looking like it will be twice in 22 years as the Musketeers have dropped six straight games. Despite playing a team in a similar situation, they are getting points at home which is a big overadjustment. Xavier caught two pints at home recently against 21-4 Marquette and is now getting nearly that against a team 7.5 games worse. Creighton is coming off a pair of close losses against Seton Hall and Villanova with both of those coming on the road and this marks its third straight road game, the first time this has occurred this season. Here, we play on home teams after failing to cover the spread in six or more consecutive games. This situation is 88-52 ATS (62.9 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (824) Xavier Musketeers

This is a play on the MILWAUKEE BUCKS for our NBA Wednesday Enforcer. You have to give Indiana a ton of credit as after losing its first four games following the loss of Victor Oladipo, it has won five straight games. The level of competition as been suspect however as all five of those wins came against teams with losing records and overall, the Pacers have played the easiest schedule in the NBA. Their 10 wins against the top 16 are by far the fewest among all teams that possess a winning record. The Pacers are 0-4 ATS in their last four games against teams with a winning percentage above .600. Milwaukee possesses the best record in the NBA and it is not due to a soft schedule as its 11 wins against the top ten are tied for most in the league while its five losses against top ten teams are the fewest. The Bucks possess the second best road record in the NBA at 19-9 as they have won six straight on the highway. Milwaukee is 12-4 ATS this season revenging a loss where opponent scored 110 or more points while going 7-1 ATS in its last eight games following a straight up win of more than 10 points. 10* (503) Milwaukee Bucks

This is a play on the ST. JOHN'S RED STORM as part of our CBB Tuesday Trifecta. St. John's pulled off a big upset one week ago as it defeated Marquette on the road by a point but could not sustain that momentum as it lost on Saturday at home against Providence by 14 points. The Red Storm were without second leading scorer Mustapha Heron who was out with a knee injury but he is back tonight as St. John's will be out for some revenge following a nine-point loss at Butler last month. Going bac, the Red Storm are 11-3 ATS in their last 14 games off a home loss. The Bulldogs are coming off a pair of wins which snapped a three-game slide but they have not won three straight games since their first three games of the season. Butler is 0-6 ATS after two or more consecutive wins this season while going 9-18 ATS in its last 27 road games when playing against a team with a winning record. 10* (628) St. John's Red Storm

This is a play on the NEW ORLEANS PELICANS for our NBA Tuesday Enforcer. The return of Anthony Davis was positive for New Orleans as it defeated Minnesota last Friday but the momentum could not be contained as the Pelicans lost at Memphis the next night with Davis taking just eight shots and scoring a mere 14 points. They are back home where they are 16-10 and the Pelicans are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a straight up loss. Orlando has won three straight games including the last two on the road and going back further, the Magic have won five of their last six games. They have won just seven of 23 games as road underdogs and this spot is not ideal as the Magic are 2-5 ATS in their last seven road games against teams with a home winning percentage of greater than .600 while going 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games against the Western Conference. Here, we play against road underdogs with a winning percentage between .400 and .499 after a road game where both teams scored 100 or more points, playing a losing team. This situation is 47-19 ATS (71.2 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (572) New Orleans Pelicans

This is a play on the MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES for our NBA Monday Enforcer. This line came out late due to the injuries on the Minnesota side but the most significant one has been confirmed as Jeff Teague has been upgraded to probable after missing eight straight games and seeing just 17 minutes in his first game back on Friday. The Timberwolves are back home after losing all three games of their roadtrip to fall to 8-20 on the highway. Minnesota is 17-10 at home and needs to take care of business here in order to get back into the playoff hunt as it is five games behind the Clippers for the final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference. Los Angeles is coming off an improbable win over Boston on Saturday as it trailed by as many as 28 points but outscored the Celtics by 39 points the rest of the way. We can certainly see a letdown here after that and the Clippers have lost their last three games following a victory, the last two coming by at least 14 points. Here, we play on home favorites revenging a loss of 10 points or more, off two or more consecutive road losses. This situation is 47-19 (71.2 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (566) Minnesota Timberwolves

This is a play on the NORTH CAROLINA TAR HEELS for our CBB Monday Star Attraction. North Carolina was coming off a monster effort against rival NC State as it put up 113 points but narrowly escaped at home on Saturday as it took overtime to secure its seventh straight victory. The Tar Heels are 11-1 at home and are home underdogs in some spots which is a rarity as they have not been a home underdog since 2015. Going back, North Carolina is 9-0 ATS in its last nine home games when playing against a team with a winning percentage of .800 or better. Additionally, the Tar Heels are 16-4 ATS in their last 20 home games after scoring 85 points or more. Virginia suffered its second loss of the season on Saturday, both coming against Duke and now it has to regroup just two days later while adding travel to it. Virginia is 13-30 ATS in its last 43 road games off a loss by 10 points or more. Here, we play against teams where the line is +3 to -3 off an upset loss by 10 points or more as a home favorite going up against an opponent off two or more consecutive home wins. This situation is 49-20 ATS (71 percent) since 1997. 10* (856) North Carolina Tar Heels

This is a play on the NOTRE DAME FIGHTING IRISH for our CBB Sunday Supreme Annihilator. Injuries killed Notre Dame last season as its NCAA Tournament streak of three years in a row was halted with a trip to the NIT and this season, any postseason tournament could be a longshot unless it has a strong finish. The Irish are 2-8 in the ACC, just a half-game ahead of last place Pittsburgh and Miami and while they are 1-4 at home within the conference, all four losses have come against NCAA Tournament bound teams. They are coming off a pair of road games and finally have a winnable home games as their last two here came against Virginia and Duke. Georgia Tech has lost four straight games and going back, it has lost its last three road games, all coming by double-digits. The offense has been atrocious as the Yellow Jackets have averaged 52.2 ppg on 36.3 percent shooting over their last five games. Here, we play on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points revenging a straight up loss as a road favorite going up against an opponent off a loss by 20 points or more to a conference rival. This situation is 29-8 ATS (78.4 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (838) Notre Dame Fighting Irish

This is a play on the DALLAS MAVERICKS for our NBA Sunday Enforcer. Portland is coming off a win over San Antonio to conclude a 3-1 homestand to improve to 23-8 at home. The Blazers head to Dallas for the first of a back-to-back road set and the road has not been nearly as kind as they are just 10-13 with a good possibility of looking ahead to Oklahoma St. tomorrow and ultimately Golden St. at home on Wednesday. The Mavericks fell to 19-8 at home with a loss against Milwaukee on Friday, its second straight loss at home and going back to mid-January, three of their last four home losses have come against teams either first or second in their respective conferences. Despite the loss against Milwaukee, Dallas is still 9-2 ATS as a home underdog this season while going a perfect 5-0 ATS when getting fewer than three points. Additionally, the Mavericks are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a straight up loss. 10* (542) Dallas Mavericks

This is a play on the ARIZONA ST. SUN DEVILS as part of our CBB Saturday Trifecta. Washington which has stormed out of the gates a perfect 10-0 in the Pac 12 and it has covered every one of those games as well. The Huskies are coming off a win at Arizona on Friday to keep their unblemished record alive and they are a heavy consensus tonight coming in as a one-point underdog. Despite what they have accomplished, they are not even ranked in the AP Top 25 and are projected as just a No. 8 seed in the NCAA Tournament. There are four teams trailing Washington at 6-4 and one of those is Arizona St. which is coming off a 21-point loss at home against Washington St. as a 15-point favorite so there was a clear lookahead to this one. The Sun Devils have prospered in these spots in the past as they are 5-0 ATS in their last five games following a double-digit loss at home. Additionally, Arizona St. is 7-0 ATS in their last seven games against teams with a winning percentage of .800 or better. 10* (766) Arizona St. Sun Devils

This is a play on the CHARLOTTE HORNETS for our NBA Saturday Enforcer. Charlotte is coming off a pair of losses to snap a two-game winning streak and it has fallen back to two games under .500. The Hornets still control the No. 7 spot in the Eastern Conference and these are the games they have done well in. Their problem has been playing the top teams as they are 5-19 against teams ranked in the top 16 in the power rankings and those five wins are by far the fewest of any playoff contending team. Charlotte is 21-9 against teams ranked below that. Atlanta lost at home against Toronto in its last game which also snapped a two-game winning streak and at this put, it is all about the future. The Hawks shook up their roster before the break and all were minor moves mostly to create room moving forward. Atlanta is playing with revenge from a 14-point loss in the last meeting but the Hawks are 3-11 ATS in 14 home games revenging a road loss this season. 10* (523) Charlotte Hornets

This is a play on the DALLAS MAVERICKS for our NBA Friday Enforcer. Dallas remains on the outside in the Western Conference playoff picture as its road play continues to hamper it. The Mavericks are just 6-21 on the highway compared to 19-7 at home and they are catching a big number tonight against the top team from the East. They also have a new look after a number of trades before the deadline yesterday. Dallas is 9-1 ATS this season as a home underdog, the only non-cover coming in its first game against Utah so it has rattled off nine straight. Additionally, the Mavericks are 10-1 ATS this season in its 11 home games following a win. Milwaukee has won five straight games to remain atop the Eastern Conference, a game and a half clear of Toronto. The Bucks are a respectable 17-9 on the road but they are just 10-8-2 ATS as road favorites. Milwaukee will rest Kris Middleton tonight who is averaging 17.3 ppg. 10* (510) Dallas Mavericks

This is a play on the ST. LOUIS BILLIKENS for our CBB Friday Star Attraction. St. Louis opened the season 5-0 in the Atlantic Ten but then suffered four straight losses, three coming by four points or less, before snapping the skid this past Tuesday with a 13-point win over Dayton to get some momentum back. The Billikens are 2.5 games out of first place and these are the games it can ill afford to lose. St. Louis is 9-1 ATS in its last 10 games against teams shooting 42 percent or worse while going 21-6 ATS in its last 27 games after playing two consecutive games as an underdog. St. Joes has lost three of its last four games and is 3-4 since second leading scorer Lamarr Kimble went down with a hand injury. One of those wins came over Davidson, which is the only conference loss for the Wildcats, it was the first game without Kimble and those are the situations where teams step up when a star is gone for the first time. The Hawks are 2-8 ATS as underdogs this season while going 1-4 ATS in their last five home games against teams with a losing road record. 10* (851) St. Louis Billikens

This is a play on the SMU MUSTANGS for our CBB Thursday Enforcer. We waited on this game until getting confirmation for the status of Alexis Yetna (13.0 ppg, 9.8 rpg), who sustained a leg injury after being fouled on a drive to the basket in the Bulls last game Saturday. He came in as questionable and will now most likely be out tonight and that is a big loss for the Bulls. It has been a special season for USF as a victory against SMU would put the program 10 games above .500 in a season for the first time since March 1992. Additionally, USF already has won more AAC games than it has in the six-year history of the conference. The spot is a tough one tonight however as SMU has lost two games in a row but was within a possession of Cincinnati on the road Saturday before the Bearcats pulled away in the final 33 seconds for a 73-68. The Mustangs are 4-1 in their last five home games with the lone loss coming against No. 12 Houston which is 21-1 on the season. SMU is 29-15 ATS in its last 44 games coming off a road cover where it lost straight up as an underdog while USF is 14-28 ATS in its last 42 games as a road underdog of 3.5 to 6 points. 10* (646) SMU Mustangs

This is a play on the TEXAS LONGHORNS as part of our CBB Wednesday Trifecta. Big things were expected for Texas this season but it has been a rough go as inconsistency has been a real problem. Part of the issue has been the schedule as the Longhorns have played the second toughest schedule in the country according to the RPI and they have suffered some brutal losses. Eight of their 10 defeats have come by six points or less. Baylor has been one of the hottest teams in the Big XII as it has won six straight games including five straight within the conference to improve to 6-2. However, four of those wins came against the four worst teams in the conference. Baylor has played the easiest schedule in the Big XII as it is ranked No. 66 in the nation. The Bears have owned this series with six straight wins but those were with much better Baylor teams against much worse Texas teams. 10* (808) Texas Longhorns

This is a play on the DENVER NUGGETS for our NBA Wednesday Enforcer. After a five-game winning streak, Denver layed an egg in Detroit on Monday, trailing by as many as 29 points and losing by 26 points. The loss coupled with the Golden St. win dropped the Nuggets a half-game behind the Warriors in the Western Conference and with a game at Philadelphia on deck Friday, this is a needed win. Brooklyn made a big push up the Eastern Conference standings with a 19-5 run but has lost four of its last five games including three in a row. The Nets have done their damage when favored as they have won 14 of 15 games when laying points but they are just 14-26 as underdogs. Additionally, the Nets are 0-4 ATS in their last four games against teams with a winning percentage above .600. Here, we play on road teams where the line is +3 to -3 off a road loss by 10 points or more, in February games. This situation is 24-5 ATS (82.8 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (559) Denver Nuggets

This is a play on the PHILADELPHIA 76ERS for our NBA Tuesday Star Attraction. Toronto easily defeated the Clippers on Sunday to improve to 22-5 at home but it is a much less inspiring 16-11 on the road and it will once again be without point guard Kyle Lowry. He missed Sunday due to lingering back pain and while an unconfirmed report came out saying he will miss the rest of the season, that is not the case but it is bad enough that he will not be back tonight. The Raptors are 2-10 ATS in their last 12 road games. Philadelphia concluded ca four-game roadtrip with a bad loss at Sacramento but it came just two days after defeating Golden St. so the letdown was imminent. Philadelphia fell to back under .500 with that defeat but it heads back home where it is 21-5 and needs these games to climb back up the standings as the Sixers are currently tied for third place with Boston and Indiana in the Eastern Conference. The Sixers are 25-11 ATS in their last 36 home games against teams with a winning road record. 10* (554) Philadelphia 76ers

This is a play on the NC STATE WOLFPACK as part of our CBB Tuesday Trifecta. NC State has encountered a two-game losing streak, including Saturday's historically awful effort in a 47-24 home loss to Virginia Tech. It was the lowest point total for a Power Five team in the shot-clock era, along with a list of other historic lows. The Wolfpack managed only 10 points in the second half while shooting just 16.7 percent overall including going 2-28 from long range. This was quite the opposite effort than in their previous game where they took Virginia to overtime. The Wolfpack are 5-0 ATS in their last five games after scoring less than 50 points in their previous game. North Carolina has won five straight games and are clearly overvalued here based on recent results. Here, we play on road underdogs of 10 to 19.5 points coming off an upset loss by 15 or more points as a home favorite going up against an opponent off a road win. This situation is 42-12 ATS (77.8 percent) since 1997. 10* (629) NC State Wolfpack

This is a play on the OKLAHOMA SOONERS for our CBB Monday Enforcer. Oklahoma is coming off a pair of losses last week as after an embarrassing 30-point home loss to Baylor, it could not recover at West Virginia as it lost by eight points on Saturday to the Mountaineers which came in 1-7 in the Big XII. The Sooners defense has been a letdown over these two losses but it remains a strength as opponents are shooting 39.6 percent from the field, the second lowest opponent field goal percentage in the conference and 18th nationally. The Sooners rank 17th according to the Ken Pomeroy adjusted defensive efficiency. Oklahoma is 19-8 ATS in its last 27 games after playing a road game. Iowa St. is on a three-game winning streak to remain a half-game out of first place in the Big XII. The Cyclones head to Norman as just the second top-25 team to face the Sooners at Lloyd Noble Center this season. Oklahoma has won four of its last five home games against ranked opponents and has defeated the Cyclones in five of the last six meetings in Norman. Going back, Iowa St. is 6-18 ATS in its last 24 games as a road favorite of three points or less. 10* (856) Oklahoma Sooners

This is a play on the WASHINGTON WIZARDS for our NBA Monday Enforcer. Washington is 2.5 games out the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference but has lost three of the past four games, including a 131-115 decision to Milwaukee at home on Saturday. The Wizards started the season 1-7 and haven't hit .500 at any point this season. They are 15-10 at home though and they have not lost at home to a team with a losing record since December 28th. The Wizards are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games following a double-digit loss at home. Atlanta is coming ff a win against Phoenix Saturday but winning streaks have been few and far between. The Hawks have been on an extended road trip because of the Super Bowl being played in Atlanta and will return home after tonight and this has been a grueling trek with a ton of miles throughout the west coast. The Hawks are 0-4 ATS in their last four games following a straight up win. Here, we play against underdogs of 3.5 to 9.5 points after a game committing 13 or more turnovers than opponent. This situation is 62-25 ATS (71.3 percent) since 1996. 10* (534) Washington Wizards

This is a play on the CALIFORNIA GOLDEN BEARS for our CBB Sunday Enforcer. California is winless in the Pac 12 at 0-8, part of a nine-game losing streak, and has failed to cover its last seven games. The linesmakers are taking this into consideration here as the Golden Bears are undervalued against a team that is not much better. After his team's loss to Utah, head coach Wyking Jones cited that he and his staff would recruit Monday and Tuesday, players were to participate in individual workouts on these days, give the team Wednesday off, then reconvene Thursday, Friday and Saturday. He said the team needed a break and that can do wonders. Stanford won at home against Colorado last Saturday but it has not won consecutive games since mid-December when it defeated Eastern Washington and San Jose St. which are a combined 10-31 and since then the Cardinals have lost four straight games following a victory. Additionally, the Cardinal are 0-4 ATS in their last four road games against teams with a losing home record. Here, we play on home teams after failing to cover the spread in seven or more consecutive games. This situation is 39-13 ATS (75 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (834) California Golden Bears

This is a play on the COLORADO BUFFALOES for our CBB Saturday Enforcer. Colorado is coming off a loss against Oregon St. on Thursday which was its second straight loss as well as its second straight loss at home after a 7-0 start in Boulder. The Buffaloes have opened a disappointing 2-6 in the Pac 12 but the linesmakers are taking that into consideration here with this number and going back, Colorado is 20-8 ATS in its last 28 games as a home underdog or pickem. Oregon meanwhile is coming off a win at Utah which was its second straight victory to move back to .500 in the conference. This has been a home dominated series of late with the host taking the last eight meetings and the Ducks are 4-9-1 ATS in their last 14 road games against teams with a winning home record. 10* (760) Colorado Buffaloes

This is a play on the BROOKLYN NETS for our NBA Saturday Enforcer. Brooklyn lost in San Antonio two nights ago to make it two straight losses on the road and it has fallen back to two games under .500 on the highway. The Nets are 7-6 in their last 13 road games and all six of those losses have come against teams currently residing in playoff positions. Brooklyn is 8-0 ATS in its last eight road games after allowing 110 points or more in three straight games. Orlando took care of Indiana on Thursday to snap a four-game losing streak as well as a four-game home losing skid. The Magic are just 11-15 at home so there is not much of a home court edge here and going back, they are is 4-13 ATS in their last 17 games as home favorites of six points or less. Here, we play on underdogs with a winning percentage between .501 and .600 after having won five or six of their last seven games, playing a losing team. This situation is 36-14 ATS (72 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (503) Brooklyn Nets

This is a play on the MIAMI HEAT for our NBA Friday Enforcer. Miami had won two straight games to get back to .500 on the season but did not show up against Chicago on Wednesday as it lost by 16 points at home as a 10.5-point favorite. That puts the Heat in a great spot tonight as teams coming off embarrassing losses tend to bounce back big times, especially one against a team with the second worst record in the Eastern Conference. Additionally, the Heat are 10-4 ATS in their last 14 games against teams with a winning straight up record. Oklahoma City has won six straight games including a win at Orlando on Wednesday as part of this Florida trip and this can be a tough trek for teams that head to South Beach. The Thunder head to Boston for a game on Sunday so there is the chance of a lookahead as well. Here, we play on home underdogs in the second half of the season that are coming off an upset loss as a home favorite. This situation is 43-16 ATS (72.9 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (586) Miami Heat

This is a play on the MARSHALL THUNDERING HERD as part of our Thursday Trifecta. While we are playing against the team that won by 50 points, we are also playing on the team that lost by 50 points in that matchup. Marshall had no answer for Southern Mississippi as it lost 101-51 as that was its worst offensive game of the season including lows for points, field goals (15), field goal percentage (25.0 percent) and three-point field goal percentage (20.0 percent). That was the end of a brutal stretch where the Thundering Herd were playing their third straight road game in a span of six days. UTEP won just its second conference game on Saturday as it defeated 5-15 Charlotte by four points. The only other C-USA victory came by only one point against 8-13 Rice. The Miners are winless on the road at 0-7, losing those games by an average of nearly 15 ppg. Here, we play against underdogs in the second half of the season allowing between 67 and 74 ppg going up against teams allowing 78 or more, after a win by six points or less. This situation is 30-9 ATS (76.9 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (632) Marshall Thundering Herd

This is a play on the DETROIT PISTONS for our NBA Thursday Enforcer. Dallas picked up a rare road win last night as it won for just the fifth time away from home. The Mavericks have not won consecutive road games this season and the follow up results have been awful with the four road losses following the road wins coming by 10, 11, 21 and 12 points. Additionally, the Mavericks have been unable to solve playing with no rest on the highway as they are 0-7 this season when playing the second of a back-to-back game on the road. Detroit has lost two straight games with the latest coming at home against top seeded Milwaukee and the game before that on the road in Dallas which sets up a quick turnaround revenge spot. It has been a tough season for the Pistons but despite being seven games under .500, they are just 2.5 games out of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. They are just one game over .500 at home and because of that, they are laying a short number which is a big edge as the favorite is 38-13 in Detroit games this season with Detroit winning 12 of 16 games in this position. 10* (572) Detroit Pistons

This is a play on the SACRAMENTO KINGS for our NBA Wednesday Enforcer. The Kings are back home after a 2-4 roadtrip, both wins coming against non-playoff teams and all four losses coming against teams that would qualify for the playoffs. Sacramento is 14-10 at home and of those 10 losses, none have come against a team with a losing record and with the exception of a loss against the Lakers back in November when LeBron James was playing, every home loss has comes against teams sitting in a playoff spot. It has been consistent as Sacramento is 16-5 ATS when playing against a team with a losing record this season. When favored, the Kings are 10-2 ATS and they are a perfect 6-0 ATS in their last six home games against teams with a road winning percentage of less than .400. The Hawks picked up a rare win over the Clippers two nights ago and while they have been more consistent since opening the season 6-23, this is not a good spot as they have lost five straight games following a win and by an average of 9.4 ppg. Additionally, the Hawks are 0-4 ATS in their last four games following an ATS win. 10* (566) Sacramento Kings

This is a play on the INDIANA HOOSIERS as part of our Wednesday Trifecta. Indiana opened Big Ten play with three straight wins but it has been a struggle since then as the Hoosiers have lost their last six games as the schedule has not been in their favor. Four of the six losses came on the road and all six have come against teams with winning record including having to play Michigan twice. Despite this, Indiana is still in the NCAA Tournament mix but a loss here would devastating especially with a game at Michigan St. on deck. While currently flawed, Indiana is still in the top 50 in the power rankings and owns three top 100 wins. Rutgers has won two straight games as significant underdogs but this is still a pretty bad team. An already struggling offense has found new lows since the start of January, and what is overall a reliable defense has faltered against the Big Ten. Add to that an inconsistent offense and it welcomes Indiana at the wrong time. 10* (797) Indiana Hoosiers

This is a play on the PHILADELPHIA 76ERS for our NBA Tuesday Enforcer. This line came out late in most places due to the myriad of injuries that the Lakers are dealing with. LeBron James is out at least one more game, Lonzo Ball will miss his fourth straight game with an ankle injury, Josh Hart looks doubtful with knee issues and Kyle Kuzma, the second best player on this team, is questionable after missing the last game. Los Angeles did win last time out despite the limited roster but that came against Phoenix and since James went down, it is 6-10 in 16 games with only one win coming against a team with a winning record. The Sixers were on a 5-1 run heading to Denver but their own injuries got in the way of what would have been a great matchup but Joel Embiid and Jimmy Butler both missed the game as they lost by 16 points. Both are back tonight and this is a tune up before playing Golden St. on Thursday. The Sixers are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points. Here, we play on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points in the second half of the season with a scoring differential between +3 and +7 going up against a team with a scoring differential between +3 and -3, after allowing 110 points or more two straight games. This situation is 31-9 ATS (77.5 percent) since 1996. 10* (551) Philadelphia 76ers

This is a play on the ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE as part of our CBB Tuesday Triple Play. We played on Alabama a week ago and we are backing them again here in a similar situational matchup. The Crimson Tide are 3-3 in the SEC, including a buzzer-beater loss at the hands of Texas A&M and a road loss to No. 1 Tennessee by three points. Alabama is 7-2 at home with the two losses coming by a combined four points and included in the wins are victories against Kentucky and Arizona. Alabama is currently tied with LSU and Mississippi St. in the SEC for most total wins against Quadrant 1 and Quadrant 2 opponents with eight. Overall, the Crimson Tide are 8-3, and have just one loss against Q2 teams. They are back home after that loss against Baylor on Saturday. Mississippi St. is coming off what could be considered an upset as it defeated Auburn by eight points as a pickem at home. The Bulldogs are just 2-2 on the road with the wins coming against Dayton and Vanderbilt, both of which are ranked well below Alabama. The Tide are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games against teams with a winning straight up record while the Bulldogs are 0-4 ATS in their last four games after scoring more than 90 points in their previous game. 10* (630) Alabama Crimson Tide

This is a play on the TEXAS TECH RED RAIDERS for our CBB Monday Enforcer. Texas Tech dropped consecutive Big XII games against Iowa St., Baylor and Kansas St. before notching a 67-64 victory over Arkansas on Saturday in the Big XII/SEC Challenge. The Red Raiders are hoping to keep that momentum going to improve upon their 4-3 record in the conference as they are a game out of first place heading into tonight. Texas Tech has failed to cover its last four games so the contrarian play here is aided by line value and going back, it is 17-5 ATS in its last 22 home games after failing to cover six or seven of its last eight games against the spread. TCU has won two straight games as it defeated Texas in its most recent Big XII game and followed that up with a win over Florida on Saturday. The Horned Frogs are 3-3 in the conference but all three of those losses came on the road and their only road victory this season came at SMU in a non-conference game. Going back, TCU is 13-27 ATS in its last 40 games in the second half of the season against teams allowing 39 percent or better shooting from the floor. 10* (856) Texas Tech Red Raiders

This is a play on the INDIANA PACERS for our NBA Monday Enforcer. We played against Golden St. on Saturday as it escaped against the Celtics no thanks to an offensive rebound on a missed free throw with 8.6 seconds left to secure a four-point win and cover. The Warriors have now won 10 straight games as well as nine straight games on the road but after laying 3.5 points against Boston, they are laying a minimum of five points more against a team that has a better record than Boston and is just two points behind the Celtics in the updated power rankings. The loss of Victor Oladipo is a big one for sure but he is not worth the line adjustment that has been made here and the Pacers still have a loaded roster. While they have struggled against the top ten teams in the league with just seven wins, we are not asking them to win here, just stay competitive. Indiana is 17-5 ATS in its last 22 games as a home underdog of 6.5 to 12 points while Golden St. is 4-16 ATS in 20 games this season as a favorite of 3.5 to 9.5 points. Additionally, we play on home underdogs coming off an upset loss as a favorite, in a game involving two teams with winning percentages between .600 and .750. This situation is 38-13 ATS (74.5 percent) since 1996. 10* (530) Indiana Pacers

This is a play on the TORONTO RAPTORS for our NBA Sunday Enforcer. The Raptors, now 15-11 on the road, will look to snap a two-game skid against one of the better home teams in the league, despite Dallas being out of the Western Conference playoff mix. Toronto lost in Indiana and Houston by four and two points respectively and it will look to end a three-game road losing streak. Of the 11 road losses for the Raptors, only one has come against a team with a losing record and that came in Orlando without Kyle Lowry. Following close wins against the Clippers and the Pistons on Friday, the Mavericks own an 18-6 home mark, tied for the second-fewest home losses in the Western Conference. Certainly that is significant but the Mavericks struggled in their latest tough home tests, losing to Golden St. and San Antonio two weeks ago. Dallas is just 7-10 against the top ten power ranked teams while Toronto is 26-6 against teams ranked outside the top ten. Here, we play on favorites of 3.5 to 9.5 points in the second half of the season with a scoring differential between +3 and +7 going up against a team with a scoring differential between +3 and -3, after allowing 110 points or more two straight games. This situation is 31-8 ATS (79.5 percent) since 1996. 10* (517) Toronto Raptors

This is a play on the SETON HALL PIRATES for our CBB Sunday Enforcer. Seton Hall has lost three straight and four of its last five games but the schedule did not help as those five games came in a span of 14 days. Head coach Kevin Willard called conference scheduling absurd prior to the DePaul loss, saying it put his team at a competitive disadvantage and you cannot blame him. The good news is the Pirates have been off since last Saturday and going back, they Pirates are 19-8 ATS in their last 27 road games off an upset loss as a home favorite while going 6-0 ATS in road games against teams outscoring their opponents by eight or more ppg this season. Villanova has turned the corner after a shaky start to the season as it has won seven straight games including its first six in the Big East to take early control with Marquette looming. This will be a challenge despite Villanova having gone 16-0 at home against Seton Hall since 1994. The Pirates are looking like a potential NCAA Tournament team, having beaten St. Johns and Xavier within the conference and boasting a 9-3 non-conference record with wins over Kentucky and Maryland. 10* (831) Seton Hall Pirates

This is a play on the BOSTON CELTICS for our NBA Saturday Enforcer. With DeMarcus Cousins back on the court, not many are going to be stepping in front of the Warriors as they have looked dominant in his three games. Overall, Golden St. has won nine straight games as it is finally back in the form that was expected all season but now comes another true test and it has not passed the test so far. The Warriors have played just 12 games against teams ranked in the top ten, the second fewest of teams ranked within the top ten, and they have gone just 4-8 in those games. Boston has won five straight games and it gets Kyrie Irving back tonight after he missed the last game with an illness. The Celtics got off to a slow start this season but are 20-8 over their last 28 games including 10 straight wins at home. Boston has thrived in this spot as it is 10-1 ATS in 11 games as a home underdog dating back to last season. Here, we play against road teams where the line is +3 to -3 in the second half of the season in a game involving two teams allowing between 43.5 and 45.5 percent shooting, after a game where it made 55 percent of their shots or better. This situation is 28-6 ATS (82.4 percent) since 1996. 10* (506) Boston Celtics

This is a play on the OREGON ST. BEAVERS as part of our CBB Saturday Trifecta. We played against Washington on Thursday as it dominated the first half against Oregon and held on for a five-point win. The Huskies are now a perfect 6-0 straight up and against the number in the Pac 12 and they are catching roughly the same number here as they were against Oregon which makes this intriguing considering the Beavers are ranked much lower in the power rankings than the Ducks. Oregon St. is coming off a 13-point win over Washington St. on Thursday and while that is not saying much, it does own impressive home wins over USC and UCLA and overall, the Beavers are 8-1 at home on the season. Oregon St. is 11-3 this season when favored and it has covered three of four home games against teams with a winning record and the Beavers have covered their last four games at home. 10* (670) Oregon St. Beavers

This is a play on the CREIGHTON BLUEJAYS for our CBB Friday Enforcer. Creighton is 11-8 overall and 2-4 in the Big East while having played the nation's ninth-toughest schedule, having already played 12 teams that won 21 games or more a year ago. The Bluejays are one of the best shooting teams in the country as they are second nationally in three-point percentage (.431), third in total three-pointers (231), third in three-pointers made per game (12.2) and fifth in field goal percentage (.505). While this might be considered a letdown for Creighton considering it is coming off a win at Georgetown as an underdog, the Bluejays are in full revenge mode here from a loss at Butler by 15 points just 20 days ago. Creighton is 11-2 ATS in its last 13 home games after allowing 80 points or more. The Bulldogs are coming off a loss against Villanova and they hit the road where they are just 1-4 with the lone victory coming against DePaul. Butler is 1-9 ATS in its last 10 road games against teams shooting 48 percent or better while going 2-12 ATS in its last 14 road games after playing a home game. 10* (858) Creighton Bluejays

This is a play on the ORLANDO MAGIC as part of our NBA Friday Triple Play. Orlando is coming off a loss in Brooklyn on Wednesday to make it a 1-4 run but three of those losses came by four points or less and the Magic are in a great spot tonight to win going away. Aaron Gordon was a non-factor against the Nets after missing two games with a sore back but we expect him to be a big contributor tonight after playing just 24 minutes. The Magic are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 home games against teams with a losing road record. Washington has had a tough season from the start and with John Wall out for the season, there is little to no hope of any possible success. The Wizards are coming off a six-game homestand culminating with a loss against Golden St. last night which was a game they were clearly up for which presents a letdown tonight. Washington is 4-12 ATS as a road underdog this season while going 3-15 ATS in 18 road games against teams allowing 10 or more ppg. 10* (566) Orlando Magic

This is a play on the OREGON DUCKS as part of our CBB Thursday Trifecta. Washington is off to a perfect 5-0 start in the Pac 12 and it has covered all of those games as well. Four of the five victories have come by double-digits including one of two conference games played on the road. While the Huskies start in conference play is impressive, it has also come against some of the weaker teams in the Pac 12 as none of five wins have come against teams ranked in the top 99 of the latest NCAA Net Rankings. Going back, the Huskies are 2-6-1 ATS in their last nine games against teams with a winning percentage above .600 while going 3-12 ATS in their last 15 road games after two straight wins by 15 points or more. Oregon upset Arizona on the road last Thursday but letdown the next game as it lost at Arizona St. two days later by 14 points. Overall, it has been a disappointing season for the Ducks but this is a chance for another quality win. Oregon is 20-9 ATS in its last 29 games against teams outscoring their opponents by four or more ppg in the second half of the season while going 7-3 ATS in its last 10 games following a loss. 10* (654) Oregon Ducks

This is a play on the NEW ORLEANS PELICANS for our NBA Thursday Enforcer. Oklahoma City has won three straight games and what normally would have been a great matchup has lost some of the sizzle with New Orleans struggling and Anthony Davis being out. The Thunder defeated Portland on Tuesday to take sole possession of third place in the Western Conference by one game over the Blazers and that coupled with an upcoming game against the Eastern Conference-leading Bucks puts them in a tough spot tonight in trying to avoid a letdown. Oklahoma City is 8-20 ATS as a home favorite of 6.5 to 12 points over the last two seasons. The Pelicans are coming off a loss against Detroit last night as they had no answer for Blake Griffin with Davis sidelined. The matchup is definitely better tonight and as bad as New Orleans has been on the road with a 7-19 record, it has been outscored by just 1.3 ppg and only six of those 19 losses were by double-digits. The Pelicans are 4-0 ATS in their last four games following an ATS loss. Here, we play against home teams in the second half of the season shooting between 45.5 and 47.5 percent going up against a team allowing between 45.5 and 47.5 percent shooting, after two straight games shooting 50 percent or better. This situation is 91-42 ATS (68.4 percent) since 1996. 10* (559) New Orleans Pelicans

This is a play on the MEMPHIS GRIZZLIES as part of our NBA Wednesday Triple Play. Memphis is in a tailspin as it has lost six straight games and 12c of its last 13 games and while there are no excuses, the Grizzlies have played a brutal schedule over this stretch. They have faced Boston twice, Houston twice, San Antonio twice as well as playing Toronto and Milwaukee. Overall, they have played the toughest schedule in the NBA as 32 of their 47 games have come against the top 16 in the league. The Grizzlies are 16-7-1 ATS in their last 24 home games against teams with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Charlotte opened the season by winning its first two road games but it is 4-16 on the highway since then and the Hornets have covered just two of their last 10 games on the road. Here, we play against road teams where the line is +3 to -3 that are shooting between 43.5 and 45.5 percent from the floor after two straight games making nine or more three-point shots going up against a team allowing between 43.5 and 45.5 percent shooting from the floor. This situation is 52-23 ATS (69.3 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (554) Memphis Grizzlies

This is a play on the GEORGIA BULLDOGS as part of our CBB Wednesday Trifecta. Georgia has lost three straight games to fall to 1-4 in the SEC but the schedule has been a brutal one. The Bulldogs four losses came against Tennessee, Auburn, Kentucky and Florida and while this is another tough foe, the linemakers have taken that into consideration. They were on a 7-1 ATS run and going back, the Bulldogs are 6-2-1 ATS in their last nine games following a double-digit loss at home. LSU has started conference play 4-0 but only one of those was a quality win and now it is laying its biggest number in SEC play. The Tigers are 1-3-1 ATS in their last five games following a straight up win of more than 20 points. Here, we play on road teams as an underdog or pickem with a winning percentage between .501 and .600 coming off three straight losses against conference rivals, playing a winning team. This situation is 61-26 ATS (70.1 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (805) Georgia Bulldogs
