(#54) Los Angeles Kings | ML | . 

I know that the Kings just played yesterday in a hard fought OT win against the Blues. Now, Los Angeles in in a playoff position and that makes this game massive. Nashville was in a playoff spot before last night. Now, the Preds are bumped out with LAK & SJS winning last night. This is going to be an excellent race to see who makes it and I'm all here for it. 

Nashville has been solid this season, don't get me wrong. But, the Kings went out and signed Artemi Panarin. He's one of the top players in the NHL when fully on his game and I believe that he's going to be a difference maker here this evening. Expect the Kings to continue their roll and create some room between them and NSH. 

Burns' Prediction: 3-1 Kings.

My first two looks whenever the Canucks are playing is to go against them and go Over the total. The price is way too large here to fade Vancouver, but the Over is in play.

Vancouver is last defensively giving up an average of 3.8 goals a game and also is the league's worst at killing power plays. The Canucks are giving up an average of five goals per game in their last seven games.

Minnesota has scored three goals in each of its last three games going against much better defenses than Vancouver.

This is a big game for Minnesota defenseman Quinn Hughes against his former team who he toiled for 7 1/2 seasons. Hughes should be in full attack mode. 

The Canucks are likely to start third-stringer Nikita Tolopilo in goal. Vancouver is off an improbable, 8-6, upset road win against the Avalanche last night. That may have been the upset of the season as the Canucks were plus $3.60.

Minnesota has proven vulnerable defensively in its last three games surrendering 14 goals. The Canucks realize the only way they can win is to go all out offensively. It worked last night against Colorado, which has the No. 1 defense in the NHL. 

(Editor's note: Stephen Nover has a special 2-for-1 NBA/NHL sweep package today in addition to this free selection. Stephen is 25-13-2 on his last 40 NHL premium/free plays and 24-8 on his last 32 NBA premium/free plays.)

Ricky's 1* play on VGK.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- Vegas is 12-2 SU in its last 14 games when playing at home against Calgary.

- Calgary is 2-5 SU in its last 7 games against Vegas.

- Calgary is 1-7 SU in its last 8 games on the road.

Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.

1* Bet on Auburn -6½

UNDER 140

UCONN and Illinois meet in the Final 4 and the under is worth a move. UConn’s defense has been a difference maker all season and especially in the tournament. They shut down shooters and they’re one of the best defensive rebounding teams. They’re going to set the tone earlier and force Illinois into a much slower game than they’d like. This is going to be a half court type of game with both teams slowing the tempo down. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be cheap bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Tonight’s FREE selection is a strong lean on the UNDER 140. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

For my best free pick on the board here for Thursday in college basketball I am looking at the Auburn Tigers and the Illinois State Red Birds. Auburn one of the most talented teams in the SEC just could not put it together this season but they should be able to blow out this Illinois State team. Auburn has not covered 4 straight and 8 of the last 10 games and on the opposite end the Red Birds have been a money maker for bettors going 5-1 last 6 ATS.  Look for Auburn to be down at the half but storm back and get a blow out win and a cover for us. 

Play on Auburn minus the points rotation #644 -6.5

Jack's Free Pick Thursday: Cleveland Cavaliers -10

The spot really favors the Cleveland Cavaliers tonight.  They had yesterday off and will be playing just their 3rd game in 6 days.  They are as healthy as they have been in a long time with nine of their top 10 scorers available.  That includes Allen, Merrill and Strus, who have all missed time recently.

The Golden State Warriors will be playing the 2nd of a back-to-back after a 127-113 home loss to the Spurs last night.  They will also be playing their 11th game in 19 days.  They are one of the most injury-ravaged teams in the NBA to boot.

The Warriors are 11-21 SU & 11-21 ATS in their last 32 games overall, which basically coincided with losing Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler.  They are without several other key players as well, and they are content with being the 10th seed in the West at this point and having to work their way back from the play-in.  

The Warriors are unlikely to catch the Blazers and Clippers ahead of them and they know it.  I think they will just be playing out the string the rest of the way with the priority being getting as healthy as possible for the play-in with Curry expected to return soon.  Bet the Cavaliers Thursday.

1* Free Pick on Auburn -6½

Auburn is simply too fast and too physical for Illinois State to handle for 40 minutes.
The Tigers rank in the top 20 nationally in defensive turnover percentage and they hunt for steals on every possession.

Illinois State struggles against high-pressure guards and coughs the ball up way too often.
You cannot give a Bruce Pearl team extra possessions and expect to stay within the number.

Auburn is elite at turning those live-ball turnovers into easy transition dunks.
The Tigers also hold a massive advantage when it comes to the offensive glass.

They rank in the top tier of college basketball in offensive rebounding rate and second-chance points.
Illinois State does not have the size or the bench depth to battle in the paint all night.

The Redbirds rely far too much on the three-point shot to keep their offense moving.
Auburn’s perimeter defense is lockdown and contests every single look beyond the arc.

The Tigers are holding opponents to under 31% from deep over their last five games.
If those shots aren't falling early, Illinois State is going to be in a massive hole.

Illinois State is also coming off a high-intensity matchup earlier this week.
Legs get heavy in the second half when you are chasing a team that plays this fast.

Auburn is 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games against non-conference opponents for a reason.
They do not just win these games; they pull away late and cover the spread.

The Tigers are also 4-1 ATS this season when favored by single digits.
They know how to close out games and they make their free throws when it counts.

This line is only this low because of one lucky win by the Redbirds last week.
The market is overreacting to a single performance instead of looking at the season-long metrics.

Auburn has the edge in effective field goal percentage and defensive efficiency.
Expect the Tigers to pull away late in the second half as the fatigue sets in for the underdog.

The depth of this Auburn roster is the real difference-maker here.
Their bench minutes are just as productive as their starters, and that wears teams out.

I like the Auburn -6.5.

Today’s card features four premium releases across the NBA, college basketball, and the PGA Tour.

Dave's Thursday Free Play:

1* on Illinois State +8

The Key: I like the price we are getting on the Illinois State Redbirds tonight in the NIT against the Auburn Tigers.  Illinois State has gone 3-0 SU & 3-0 ATS in the NIT thus far and has been dominant in the process.  This veteran team has had all hands on deck and is playing hungry.  The Redbirds beat Kent State by 21 as 4.5-point home favorites, upset Wake Forest as 8.5-point road dogs and upset Dayton as 7.5-point road dogs.  Auburn doesn't even want to be here, but the Tigers have been talented enough to get by.  They are 0-3 ATS with narrow wins over much lesser competition all at home.  They beat South Alabama by 11 as 18.5-point favorites, Seattle by 6 as 14.5-point home favorites and Nevada by 6 as 8.5-point home favorites.  So this will be their first road/neutral game of the tournament.  Once again the Tigers are getting too much love.  The Redbirds want it more.  Take Illinois State.

Phillies vs Rockies 
4:10 EST 
7-Unit bet on the Phillies priced as a favorite (TBD expected –175) 

The Phillies delivered a stirring late comeback Wednesday, rallying past the Nationals 6–5 in 10 innings after trailing for most of the night. Washington appeared firmly in control after CJ Abrams blasted a three‑run homer in the seventh inning, pushing the Nationals ahead 5–1. Philadelphia answered immediately, though, when J.T. Realmuto homered in the bottom of the seventh to spark life into the ballpark. Bryce Harper followed with a solo shot in the eighth, trimming the deficit to two and shifting momentum back toward the home dugout. 

The decisive swing came in the ninth. With two runs already in and the crowd on its feet, Edmundo Sosa lined a single that tied the game at 5–5, capitalizing on defensive miscues and forcing extra innings. The Phillies’ bullpen held firm from there, setting the stage for the rookie to finish it off. In the 10th, Justin Crawford delivered the final blow, lining an RBI single to right field to score the winning run and complete a dramatic comeback from a four‑run hole. The victory showcased Philadelphia’s resilience and timely power, turning what looked like a frustrating loss into one of the season’s early signature wins. 

MLB teams that trailed by three or more runs through the 7th inning to a divisional rival and then won the game have compiled a 50-34 record that has averaged a –109 wager, resulting in a 14% ROI since 2004.  
 
Aaron Nola is the starter for this game and for his career has posted a team record of 8-3 record and has allowed an average on 0.82 home runs per start. He has been prone to the long ball in recent seasons, but oddly enough he has minimized those when facing the Rockies. Even when he has started at Coors Field, he is 4-2 allowing 0.83 home runs per start. Of note, is that oin these six road starts against the Rockies, the NERF bet (runs scored in the first inning) is a near-perfect 5-1.

Illinois State vs Auburn 9:30 ET

Tigers (-) over Red Birds- Oh, I would love to take the Red Birds here. I would venture to say that Illinois State will have an easier time attracting fans, students and alumni to Indianapolis than Tigers fans. Fans from Alabama who saw the Tigers claw toward a nation championship in recent years will find this is a huge step down, and I don’t  see many Auburn fans ma]king the trip. That being said and this season the mid-conference stand out clubs have struggled aaginst a Big-5 power team…they haven ‘t been competitive during regular season or now in tournaments, The Red Birds roll in off three impressive NIT wins starting at home 79-58 over Kent and then taking to the road defeating Wake Forest 87-75 as a dog of 7.7-ponts and upsetting Dayton 61-55 ,once again as a -7.5 underdog. Auburn as the top seed had three home wins over San Antonio, Seattle and Nevada and were favored by  -8.5,-13.5,-17.5 (not exactly challenging opponents) and didn’t cover any one of them going 0-3 ATS. This isn’t a true road game for the Tigers but is isn’t home either. Take ILLINOIS STATE

Thursday's MLB Free Pick

PLAY ON: Diamondbacks +104

My selection is on the 'under' between Toronto and San Jose at 10:05 pm et on Thursday.

The Maple Leafs rose to the occasion and delivered a 5-4 overtime win in Anaheim on Monday, marking their third victory in their last four games. They'll run into a red hot Sharks team on Thursday as San Jose notched its third straight victory with a come-from-behind 4-3 win over the Ducks last night. While Toronto did score five goals in Anaheim last time out, it averages only 2.9 goals per game on the road this season and much of that production came when it had a far more dangerous lineup than it does now. San Jose, while skilled offensively, hasn't had any sort of a bump production-wise from home ice. The only previous matchup between these non-conference foes this season produced just five total goals and needed overtime to get there. That was way back in mid-December and has been long-forgotten by most bettors. Take the under (8*).

I'm riding a RED HOT 49-29 run over the last two-plus weeks and I'm ready to keep it ROLLING into a big weekend that features Final Four action plus loaded slates in the NBA, NHL and MLB! Hop on board with an all-access subscription package today and don't miss a single winner!

AAA Sports' Selection: Los Angeles Clippers (ATS):

San Antonio played last night in San Francisco and won that game rather easily.

This is it's second game of a back-to-back and we don't think that the Spurs can keep winning in this scenario.

The Spurs are just 3-10 over their L13 games played against the Clippers.

Also, Los Angeles have covered against the spread in seven of the L10 games played between the teams.

The Clippers are 8-3 versus the spread over their L11 home games.

The play is on LAC.

Turbo version of when the pointspread is counterintuitive to the points per game margin, go with what the oddsmakers are telling us as at 1027-724-28. True it is slumping but in fact does slightly better late in the season. My outlaw line keeps this below a premium, but still a strong bet.

A true rarity from the Grandmaster: a 5⭐️ Wise Guy release in the NBA. This is the strongest play on the board in over a month across all sports—reserved for only the most elite edges where every major indicator aligns.
