The Trail Blazers will be without one of their main scoring options in C.J. McCollum (ankle). He’s missed two games this season - an 11-point loss to Miami and a 13-point setback against Oklahoma City on Saturday. The Warriors are more dangerous with D’Angelo Russell now healthy, so look for them to keep this close enough to make rolling with the points the appealing wager.

CHARLOTTE +4
ORLANDO @ CHARLOTTE | 1/20 | 5:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 9:42 PM
The Hornets certainly come into this game well-rested since they haven’t played since Wednesday. They have lost six straight, the last four of which came on the road. Now they will look to get back on track against a Magic team that is dealing with a lot of injuries and will be playing their sixth straight game on the road, where they are just 7-15 straight up. After losing to the Warriors by 14 points Saturday, I wouldn’t be surprised if they also fell to the Hornets here, so I’ll take the points.
57-31-1 IN LAST 89 NBA ATS PICKS | +2294
9-0 IN LAST 9 CHA ATS PICKS | +900
12-8-1 IN LAST 21 ORL ATS PICKS | +316
OKLAHOMA CITY +6.5
OKLAHOMA CITY @ HOUSTON | 1/20 | 5:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 9:38 PM
The Thunder have been stellar on the road, posting a 15-5 record there ATS. Meanwhile, the Rockets are only 10-10 ATS at home. These two teams have already faced off twice this season with the Rockets winning by four in Houston and the Thunder winning by 21 in Oklahoma City. Even if the Thunder can’t pull out the road win here, I think they keep it close.
57-31-1 IN LAST 89 NBA ATS PICKS | +2294
5-1 IN LAST 6 OKC ATS PICKS | +391

COLORADO -1.5
DETROIT @ COLORADO | 1/20 | 3:00 PM EST
The Red Wings have the fewest points in the NHL and will continue to struggle without No. 1 goaltender Jonathan Bernier. Jimmy Howard is 0-12-2 in his last 14 starts but 8-3-3 lifetime against the Avalanche. Detroit has lost nine of its last 11 Monday games. The Avalanche have picked up their play of late with a couple of huge wins and will not overlook the Red Wings here. Colorado has outscored its opponents 16-7 while going 3-0 in matinees this season.

PSA: 5% MAX BET does NOT mean bet all the money you have. It also does NOT mean bet money you don't have. It simply means 5% of your bankroll is the most we will ever bet on any single play, and that is what we are betting on this one. BE SMART! BET SMART!
My NBA totals system is a combination of relevant statistical data (using Hollinger's ratings for pace and offensive & defensive efficiency), history involving similar games (researched through the SDQL database), and current market data. A play is made when enough of these factors align. The size of the play is determined by a combination of how many of these factors align, how much value is perceived, and how confident I am about the play.

My model says that the Panthers cover the spread 80 percent of the time, so you're getting excellent value playing them at this spread. Florida in on a hot streak, having won four consecutive contests and eight of its last 11 to climb into third place in the Atlantic Division. The Panthers have scored at least four goals in 15 of their last 16 games. Take Florida +1.5 goals at -179.

SACRAMENTO @ MIAMI | 1/20 | 5:00 PM EST

My model says that the Heat cover the spread 70 percent of the time, so you're getting excellent value playing them at this point spread. Miami has been tremendous at home this season, winning 18 of its first 19 games at American Airlines Arena. The Heat enter this one with a seven-game winning streak at home. Sacramento is 7-14 on the road and in the midst of a five-game trip that began with its fourth straight overall loss.

BUCKNELL @ COLGATE | 1/20 | 7:00 PM EST
My model says that the Raiders cover the spread 62 percent of the time, so you're getting excellent value playing them at this point spread. Colgate has won eight of its last nine overall contests and is a perfect 8-0 at home this season. Each of the Raiders' last four home victories have been by at least nine points. Take Colgate.

CHICAGO @ MILWAUKEE | 1/20 | 5:00 PM EST
The Bucks continue to dominate as they own the best record in the NBA. They have won nine straight meetings with Chicago, including all three this season. Milwaukee owns the second-best home record in the league at 20-2, while the Bulls are just 7-14 on the road. The Bucks also are the top scoring team, averaging a robust 119.5 points per contest, and dominate the offensive glass while ranking No. 1 in field-goal percentage defense.

Play: Miami Heat -6.0 (-110)
View Analysis
This is a great bounce back spot for Miami after last nights disappointing loss to the Spurs. Miami will be returning back home where they are 18-1 to face the Sacramento Kings who are 7-14 on the road and plagued with Injuries/Guys sitting due to recent trades. The Kings are pretty bad when fully healthy and it looks like they will be undermanned today with 2 of their starters sitting out, along with a couple bench players. The Heat are 8-1 ATS at home after a loss and are also 10-2 ATS at home vs below .500 teams, very encouraging. The Miami Heat are serious about contention and do not take these games lightly. Miami loves to let it fly, and Vs this 16th ranked Kings defense I believe the Heat will make it rain today as they rank 2nd in 3pt FG%. Do not forget about my favorite ingredients, defense and rebounding. Miami checks the box in both categories as they rank 11th defensively and are 2nd in the entire league in collecting rebounds. That's what I like to see. With the Kings frontcourt injuries, expect Bam Adebayo and company to control the glass and dominate this game. Heat all day.

This one is going way over the total! The Utah Jazz have went over in 9 of their last 12 games at home. Guess what, the Pacers have also went over the total in 9 of their last 12 games! 8/11 have gone over for the Pacers on back to back's and that is exactly what will be happening tonight. The Pacers played in Denver last night where the total once again went over, and on a B2B to Utah, I know those legs are going to be tired and a lot of 3s will be going up as these teams have SNIPERS and love to shoot the 3. Both of these offenses rank in the top 5 in 3pt shooting and FG%. Utah actually being the best 3pt shooting team in the league, and at home the rim may look 10 feet wide tonight. The Jazz have been averaging 125PPG in their last 4 contests while the last 4 Pacer games have also went over. On a brutal B2B as well, I LOVE the OVER here.
215.5 or higher play at 4%, 214 or lower at 5%.

Play: Total Over 6.0 (-120)
View Analysis
The Florida Panthers and the Minnesota Wild will clash tonight in what I see being a very high scoring contest, both the Panthers and wild are currently in pretty good form. Let's start with the Minnesota Wild, they have been very iffy all season and VERY unpredicatable but in their last two games they have shown up. The Wild defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 3-2 at home and then followed that victory up with a 7-0 dominating win over the visiting Dallas Stars. The Wild have proved to us that they are meaning business right now and more importantly getting the job done at home. Minnesota has dominated the Panthers at home, winning 7 straight over them and in general winning 9 of the last 12 meetings. Florida has some problems on defense and play a very fast paced style of hockey which will certainly help the goal production continue for the Wild. The Panthers are currently 7-3 in their last 10 games, beating every type of team during that span. The Panthers seem focused and so do the Wild, 6 is a solid total that I'll happily bet to go over. 4 of the last 5 have gone over for the Panthers and that continues tonight.
Play good at 6 - no play at 6.5 if it happens to get there.

View Analysis
Pacers on the altitude double and are in a terrible spot against the better, healthier team on the second leg, sans rest, and off a game where they didn't exactly show up big in the first half...and the Jazz are very well rested and HOT
The value on this first half here is IMMENSE...and I would likely be playing this at 5% or more if you're getting a -4 line here.
Jazz 11-8 ATS at home 1H and Pacers 8-13 ATS on the road 1H.
