NBA Best Bets
1. Oklahoma City Thunder to Cover -4.5 vs. Dallas Mavericks
Platform: DraftKings, 3:45 PM CT
Why We Love It: OKC has been one of the most exciting teams this season, and while losing Chet Holmgren is a bummer, Isaiah Hartenstein is stepping up in the center spot. With home-court advantage, the Thunder look ready to storm past Luka and the Mavs. Plus, who doesn’t want to root for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dropping a 40-burger?
2. Magic-Bucks Under 215.5
Platform: DraftKings, 12:42 PM CT
Why We Love It: Orlando is rolling out the B-team with Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner sidelined. Add in both teams’ lockdown defense and slow pace, and this game screams low scoring. Expect bricks, boards, and a whole lotta defense.
3. Cole Anthony Over 11.5 Points (-114)
Platform: FanDuel, 4:20 PM CT
Why We Love It: With half the Magic squad in street clothes, Cole Anthony has no choice but to ball out. He’s got the green light, and with just 12 points needed, this pick feels like easy money.
College Basketball Best Bets
1. Arkansas +4 vs. Michigan
Why We Love It: It’s a clash of defensive titans, but Michigan’s turnover issues give Arkansas the edge. The Razorbacks are grinding on the glass and will keep this one tight. Taking the points here is a no-brainer.
2. DePaul -1.5
Why We Love It: The Blue Demons are letting it fly from deep, hitting threes at the seventh-highest rate in the country. At home, they’re a tough out, and this spread is too small to ignore. Back DePaul to dominate.
Final Thoughts
It’s time to stack those dubs and cash those slips, Fontaine's 5 style! Whether it’s the Thunder bringing the noise, a grind-it-out battle in the NBA Cup, or college hoops drama, these plays have the juice. Let’s ride, fam!
