I was 1-3 on Saturday, and had to take a few days off, but I return with my BEST BET of the season! However long you think it's going to take you to move – apartment to apartment, apartment to house, house to house, etc. – I'm taking the OVER. Moving is bad enough, but moving during a pandemic? When your hoarder talents leave you with boxes of Street & Smith basketball guides going back to the 1980s? What a mess.

Kings at WIZARDS 7:05 pm EST, Bucks at SIXERS 7:05 pm, Warriors at ROCKETS 8:05 pm
3-pointers: Kevin Porter, Jr. (Rockets) double-double +230 (returns $33.00) I'm sticking with the kid and hope the game becomes a shootout. Porter is averaging 18 and 8 in his 4 games and seems a decent chance at +230.
2-pointers: Warriors Over ROCKETS and Over 229.5 +114 (returns $21.40) Neither team has been killing it on the defensive end recently and Steph Curry and Kevin Porter Jr. should be up for playing each other. I'm expecting this game to have some pace. Here's hoping both teams avoid brick-laying.
Ben Simmons (Sixers) double-double +110 (returns $21.00) With Joel Embiid out, look for another big job off the boards job for Simmons.
Free throws: Kings at WIZARDS Under 247 -109 (returns $19.20) A) That's a lot of points. B) Both these high-scoring teams average 115.
Steals: None
Winners:
Free throws: LaMelo Ball (Hornets) Over 30.5 points, rebounds, assists -110 (returns $19.10) Ball went 23-9-6 = 38.
Losers:
3-pointers: 3-Team Parlay – Pistons at NETS Over 226.5 points AND Trail Blazers at TIMBERWOLVES Over 234.5 AND SUNS Over Pacers on the moneyline +400 (returns $50.00) The Nets vs Pistons ended this early with a 100-95 effort. Only the Blazers game won.
