Game Analysis

OVER 239.5

Cleveland and Denver meet and this game should produce a lot of fireworks. With the acquisition of Harden, we saw this Cavs team look a lot better as they continued to push the tempo offensively. They have another scoring threat and Denver has struggled defensively. They’re allowing nearly 117 ppg and they’ve been able to overcome that thanks to their 120.4 ppg offensively. This has the makings of a back and forth game all night long as we’ll see both teams push the issue in transition. Back the over. 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 OVER. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

Game Analysis

Ricky's 1* play on OKC.

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.

- Oklahoma City is 13-1 SU in its last 14 games against an opponent in the Pacific Division.

- Oklahoma City is 13-4 SU in its last 17 games played in February.

- Oklahoma City is 3-1 in the last 4 meetings.

Verdict: The value is on the road favorite.

NBA | Kings vs Pelicans
Play on: Kings +8 -108 at betonline
Game Analysis

The Pelicans are by far the biggest favorites they have been all season in this game. Sign me up for the Kings.

I understand the Kings would set a franchise record for most consecutive losses with 13 if they lose this game. But that should give Sacramento added motivation plus the Kings should get back Domantas Sabonis. He missed Sacramento's last game, a 132-126 loss to the hot Cavaliers this past Saturday, with a sore back.  

The Kings are 12-42. That is the worst record in the NBA. But New Orleans isn't much better at 14-40.

It's an advantageous situational spot for Sacramento even being on the road. New Orleans last played a home game on Jan. 30. The Pelicans have been on the road since. They just concluded their four-game road swing with probably their best win of the season upsetting the Timberwolves, 119-115, as an 8 1/2-point underdog.

The Pelicans can't afford to have any kind of letdown and not be fully focused laying this many points, a role they are totally unaccustomed to.

 (Editor's note: Stephen Nover is 4-1 this month on his NBA plays and has his NBA Bookie Basher going today in addition to this free selection.)

Play on: UNDER 136½ -110
Game Analysis

(#306531) Delaware State Hornets @ (#306532) North Carolina Central Eagles | UNDER | . 

Both coming into this game with losing records, there's not much to like about either of these offenses. Delaware State brings in KenPom's least efficient offense in the country. That's right. The Hornets are 365th out of 365 teams in offensive efficiency this season. In their most recent road outing, they only managed to score 47 points.

NC Central, on the other hand isn't much better. The Eagles have the 329th ranked offense and scored only 65 points in their last home game. I do believe that the Eagles are a bit stronger than the Hornets, but it isn't that big of a gap. Both teams shoot very low three point percentages. Neither rebound the ball well either. Expect a low scoring affair.

Burns' Prediction: 67-62 NC Central.

NCAA-B | Arizona vs Kansas
Play on: Arizona -2½ -110 at Buckeye
Game Analysis

1* Free Pick on Arizona -2½

Arizona is laying points in one of the toughest environments in college basketball for a reason. They have the offensive depth to overwhelm a Kansas team that is struggling to find its identity.

The Wildcats currently rank in the top ten nationally in effective field goal percentage. They are shooting the lights out from deep and forcing teams to pick their poison.

Kansas has been vulnerable on the perimeter lately. They gave up too many open looks in their last two games against high-volume shooting teams.

Arizona plays at a lightning-fast pace that wears opponents down by the under-eight timeout. Kansas prefers a more controlled game but they won't be able to dictate the tempo here.

Both teams are coming off games this past Saturday. Fatigue shouldn't be a massive factor, but Arizona’s bench is much deeper right now.

The Jayhawks are missing an elite rim protector this season. Arizona’s bigs are mobile and will beat the Kansas frontcourt to the spot in transition.

The Wildcats are also elite at crashing the offensive glass. They create second-chance opportunities that break the spirit of home crowds.

Kansas is just 2-5 against the spread in their last seven games. They are being overvalued because of the name on the jersey and the history of Allen Fieldhouse.

Arizona has the talent and the coaching to go into Lawrence and dictate the terms. This spread is short because books are scared of the home-court hype, but the numbers favor the visitors.

Trust the superior offense to pull away in the final four minutes.

I like the Arizona -2.5.

NBA | Kings vs Pelicans
Play on: Pelicans -7½ -110 at circa
Game Analysis

Jack's Free Pick Monday: New Orleans Pelicans -7.5

The New Orleans Pelicans are as healthy as they have been all season and playing well. They have gone 4-4 SU 6-2 ATS in their last eight games overall despite playing a tough schedule featuring five playoff contenders.

They were competitive in all four losses to the Thunder, 76ers, Hornets and Bucks. They also upset the Timberwolves as 8.5-point road dogs. They come in on two days' rest since that win and will be fresh and ready to go tonight as a result.

The Sacramento Kings are a dumpster fire right now going 0-12 SU & 4-8 ATS in their last 12 games overall. Their injury situation is grim playing without Zach LaVine, De'Andre Hunter, Malik Monk and Keegan Murray tonight. Domantas Sabonis is questionable as well. Bet the Pelicans Monday.

Game Analysis

This is a play on the DENVER NUGGETS for our Monday Free Play. The Cavaliers are playing at a high level as they have won three straight, eight of nine and 10 of their last 12 games. They are coming off a six-point win at Sacramento on Saturday in the debut of James Harden so they are ready for a second half run but this is a tough spot. Cleveland is only 5-10 against teams ranked in the top ten in the league and only six teams in the entire league have fewer wins against top ten ranked teams. The Cavaliers are 5-11 ATS against teams outscoring opponents by three or more ppg. Denver overcame a nine-point deficit by outscoring Chicago 39-16 in the fourth quarter to pull out the 16-point win which snapped a three-game losing streak and come in 15-9 ATS against teams with a winning record. Here, we play on home teams after a blowout win by 15 points or more going up against an opponent after scoring 120 points or more 2 straight games. This situation is 65-32 (67 percent) since 2022. Play (514) Denver Nuggets

Play on: Bulls -4 -110 at Bovada
Game Analysis

Bulls vs Nets 
7:30 EST 
5-Unit bet on the Bulls priced as a 3.5-point favorite.

The following NBA betting algorithm has produced an exception record going 140-51 SU and 119-69-3 ATS for 63% winning bets since 1995. The requirements are:

Bet on road favorites.

The opponent has won 67% or fewer of their games on the season.

The opponent led by 20 or more points at the half o their previous game.

If the game is a conference matchup, our favorites have compiled a 95-30 SU and 83-39-3 ATS mark good for 68% winning bets.

NBA Betting Algorithm: Road Favorite Dominance Strategy

This NBA betting algorithm has established a remarkable track record, achieving a 140-51 straight-up (SU) record and a 119-69-3 against-the-spread (ATS) record since 1995. This equates to a 63% win rate for qualifying bets, highlighting its effectiveness over a significant sample size.

Algorithm Criteria

Target road favorites as the basis for all bets.

The opposing team must have won 67% or fewer of their games during the current season, ensuring the favorite is not facing a dominant opponent.

The opponent must have held a lead of 20 points or more at halftime in their previous game, indicating the possibility of a letdown or regression in their next outing.

When the game is a conference matchup, the reliability of this strategy increases. In these situations, road favorites have compiled an outstanding 95-30 SU record and an 83-39-3 ATS mark, producing a 68% success rate for bettors. The algorithm leverages both team performance trends and situational factors to identify high-probability betting opportunities on the road, particularly within conference play.

Jim's Free Play: 508. Magic -10.5

This number looks big, but Orlando’s home-court metrics justify it. Their defense is elite at the Kia Center, and Milwaukee’s road offense has been inconsistent, particularly in games where they’re forced into low-efficiency mid-range shots. Orlando’s length and defensive versatility create matchup problems across the board.

NCAA-B | Alabama State vs Southern
Play on: Alabama State +7½ -115 at PlayMGM
Game Analysis

Monday CBB Free play. My selection is on Alabama State plus the points over Southern University at 9 pm et on Monday.

We'll grab all the points we can get with Alabama State on Monday. The Hornets check in off a double-digit loss at Grambling on Saturday as they made good on just 18-of-66 field goal attempts. They've been wildly inconsistent offensively but we do know they're capable of bouncing back here, keeping in mind they're just one game removed from knocking down 28-of-59 field goal attempts in a 13-point win over Florida A&M. I like the fact that Alabama State has held three straight and nine of its last 10 opponents to 25 or fewer made field goals. Southern has thrived by pushing the pace offensively but it might be in tough in that regard here, noting that Alabama State has allowed just one of its last six opponents to get off 60 field goal attempts. Southern did a nice job of holding Alabama A&M in check last time out but prior to that had yielded 27 or more successful field goal attempts in three straight contests. Finally, we'll note that while Southern does own the better overall record in this matchup this season, Alabama State has faced the more difficult schedule by most metrics. Take Alabama State.

Pistons vs Hornets NBA Free PICK

The Angle(s): Both teams are close to 60% to the under on the season and nine of the last 10 meetings have stayed under the total. The Charlotte Hornets have really evolved as a team, and they've made huge progress defensibly holding six of their last 10 opponents to fewer than 100 points. With the Hornets 70% to the under against teams with a winning record, I like the under at this number.

The Bet: UNDER (3%).

Game Analysis

The Chicago Bulls are in a rough spot right now, losers of their last four games with no signs of covering spreads consistently in that stretch. Zooming out, they've only managed one win in their last seven (1-6), highlighting a team that's struggling to find any rhythm or defensive consistency.
As road favorites, the Bulls have been particularly unreliable this season—I can't trust them in that spot. Their overall road record is poor, and when favored away from home, they've failed to cover in most cases, often getting exposed against motivated or desperate opponents.
Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Nets just snapped a funk with a convincing home win over the Washington Wizards (127-113 on Feb 7), showing some offensive pop and swagger at Barclays Center. They're coming in as sizable underdogs, but this feels like a classic spot where the line could move toward the favorite as public money piles on Chicago—similar to patterns we've seen in other recent Bulls matchups.
Given the Bulls current skid, road favorite issues, and the Nets fresh momentum at home, I'm fading Chicago here.
Play: Nets +4.5
