PHOENIX @ PORTLAND | 3/09 | 10:00 PM EST
8:35 AM
Since losing 17 games in a row, Phoenix has won three straight and four of five. That includes victories over the Bucks and Lakers. But all those wins were at home. Now the Suns hit the road to face a Blazers team that beat them by 14 and 22 points earlier. Phoenix is a NBA-worst 5-28 on the road and the Blazers cover in nearly two-thirds of my simulations. That's a high number, so I'll lay the double-digit points here.

NEW YORK +4.5
SACRAMENTO @ NEW YORK | 3/09 | 12:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 5:55 PM
The Kings are an amazing 13-4 against the spread when favored, as they are Saturday. But my advanced computer model projects a Knicks straight-up victory at MSG. They're covering in 60 percent of my simulations, a solid number that's worth backing.
69-47 IN LAST 116 NBA PICKS | +1792
MINNESOTA -7
WASHINGTON @ MINNESOTA | 3/09 | 8:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 5:52 PM
The Wizards are a poor 10-23 against the spread on the road, easily dead-last in the NBA. The Timberwolves have covered just once in their last five games, but getting Washington at home (Minnesota is 18-13 ATS at Xcel) is a cure for what ails. My projections like the Wolves to cruise by double figures, covering handily.

VANDERBILT @ LSU | 3/09 | 8:30 PM EST
11:03 AM
Is this the day Vandy gets its first SEC win? Maybe, maybe not, i don't care. I'm just looking for a cover here, and I like my odds of getting it no matter the situation with LSU coach Will Wade. If LSU's Javonte Smart has to sit, that'll have a larger impact. Still, despite all of that, Vandy has fared much better on the road lately, covering four of their last five.

SAN JOSE ST. +23
SAN JOSE ST. @ FRESNO ST. | 3/09 | 7:00 PM EST
10:59 AM
Fresno State is the superior team in this matchup, as it enters the contest at 21-8 while ranked 73rd nationally by KenPom. San Jose State's 4-25 and ranked 342nd...of 353 teams. So, needless to say, Fresno should win this game, but this spread is just a little too large for a Fresno team that isn't great offensively and doesn't have too much to play for seeing as how it can't finish higher than third in the Mountain West.

VILLANOVA -167
VILLANOVA @ SETON HALL | 3/09 | 12:00 PM EST
11:07 AM
Both clubs should be at maximum motivation, as Villanova seeks the outright Big East title while Seton Hall needs another quality win as it mounts a late charge toward an NCAA Tournament bid. Seton Hall found a way to clip Marquette in a desperate comeback, but back-to-back wins against the conference's top teams is a tough order for a resilient but marginal Pirates club. Take the Wildcats to close out an uneven Big East campaign with another title.

VANDERBILT @ LSU | 3/09 | 8:30 PM EST

On the brink of a winless SEC season, Vanderbilt suddenly was afforded a chance when LSU suspended coach Will Wade. The Tigers might also be forced to sit PG Javonte Smart, who is at the center of possible NCAA recruiting violations. The Commodores have covered in all but one of their last five away tests and are 5-2 ATS in recent visits to Baton Rouge.

ST. JOHN'S @ XAVIER | 3/09 | 5:00 PM EST
10:15 AM
In their last meeting, Xavier F Naji Marshall (14.9 ppg) was nothing short of brilliant. He scored 31 points and held St. John’s standout PG Shamorie Ponds to 13, seven below his average. Marshall (ankle) missed the last two practices and, if he plays, will be restricted. The Red Storm have a superior straight-up record, so the spot is a tad generous.
11-7 IN LAST 18 CBB ATS PICKS | +316
TOWSON PK
TOWSON VS JAMES MADISON | 3/09 | 4:00 PM EST
10:15 AM
Towson and James Madison split in the regular season when the Dukes had G Darius Banks (12.5 ppg, 4.9 rpg) at their disposal. A hand injury has waylaid the team’s most versatile defender, the most accurate three-point shooter in the CAA and the second-ranked player in steals. The suspension of a backup, F Develle Phillips, further depletes the Dukes, who have covered in only four of the last 13 outings.
11-7 IN LAST 18 CBB ATS PICKS | +316

TENNESSEE @ AUBURN | 3/09 | 12:00 PM EST
11:16 AM
Tennessee has bounced back nicely from its tough loss to LSU with blowouts over Kentucky and Mississippi State. The Volunteers need a win Saturday to have a shot at a share of the SEC regular-season. But in their way lies a surging Auburn club that can finish the regular-season slate with four straight wins before heading to the conference tournament. A solid spot play Saturday looms on the Tigers.

WEST VIRGINIA @ OKLAHOMA ST. | 3/09 | 4:00 PM EST
11:50 AM
Two hugely disappointing Big 12 teams face off with the loser finishing in last place in the conference. The Mountaineers have won two of three, but both victories were at home. They haven't won a single road game all year, and my projections aren't calling for a very close outcome here. Okie State covers in nearly 70 percent of my simulations. Lay the points on the home favorite.

ARIZONA -1.5
ARIZONA ST. @ ARIZONA | 3/09 | 4:00 PM EST
11:47 AM
Streaky Arizona had won three in a row before getting embarrassed at Oregon last weekend. But this is a rivalry game, and the Wildcats are 12-4 at home, compared to a 5-5 mark by the Sun Devils on the road. Arizona wins by an average of seven points in my computer simulations. Lay the small number here.

UNDER 167 DUKE @ NORTH CAROLINA | 3/09 | 6:00 PM EST
1:41 PM
Zion Williamson will miss his fifth straight game. Duke comes in with same-season home revenge. Counting the game versus North Carolina, Duke is 4-1 under without Zion. I have Williamson worth six points to the total. Duke is 34-16-2 under in its last 52 games. Duke/North Carolina have gone under in 4 straight in the series. North Carolina is 5-2 under in their last 7 games.

MICHIGAN +3.5
MICHIGAN @ MICHIGAN ST. | 3/09 | 8:00 PM EST
1:27 PM
The Wolverines come in with same-season home revenge and head coach John Beilein has been very successful in this situation. Michigan State has played the entire second half of the season without third-leading scorer Joshua Langford but now are playing without second-leading scorer Nick Ward worth 4.5 points to the betting line. I give 2.5 points for home revenge and only three points for home court edge. My number is Michigan -3.5, I think the wrong side is the favorite.
4-0 IN LAST 4 CBB PICKS | +400
3-0 IN LAST 3 MICHST ATS PICKS | +300
