1-2 last night as a number of late Lonzo Ball rebounds saved the evening from being a shutout. Once again I won the double-double bet, lost the others, and turned a profit.
Three games, four plays.
All wagers and returns based on $10. Please check game time lineups before wagering.
Trail Blazers at CELTICS 7:35 pm EDT, Heat at HORNETS 8:05 pm, Suns at THUNDER 8:05 pm, Kings at MAVERICKS 8:05 pm.
3-pointers: Miles Bridges (Hornets) double-double +425 (Returns $52.50) Bridges has had 3 DDs in his past 10 games and 11 on the season.PJ Washington has had 1 DD in his past 10 and 8 all season. Bridges is +425. Washington is +450. I'm going with Bridges.
Tyrese Halliburton (Kings) double-double +350 (Returns $45.00) Halliburton has gone double-double in two of his last three as a starter and I have to like +350 against the Mavericks.
2-pointers: Chris Paul (Suns) double-double +140 (Returns $24.00) The Thunder have been so bad recently that I'd rather get a higher number because I'm afraid Paul may have to do this in three quarters.
Free throws: Jusuf Nurkic (Trail Blazers) double-double -112 (Returns $19.00) Nurkic has doubled it up in 4 of his last 5 games and he missed the 5th by one rebound.
Steals: None
Winners:
2-pointers: Lonzo Ball (Pelicans) double-double +350 (Returns $45.00) Ball had 33 points, 11 boards (and 8 assists) as the Pels came back to win in OT 140-136.
Losers:
Free throws: Wendell Carter Jr. (Magic) Over 22.5 Points, rebounds, assists -103 (Returns $19.80) Carter's clearly not 100 percent yet after another subpar night: 6-4-1 = 11 in 26 minutes. But the Magic won 112-111, on a last-second Cole Anthony three after scoring 75 points the previous night. Go figure.
Steals: Jonas Valanciunas (Grizzlies) Over 30.5 Points, rebounds, assists -113 (Returns $18.90) The Big V went for 11-16-3 = 30 and missed out by 1. Annoying.
