Rissa’s Expert Picks (March 4th)
An analysis of my favorite daily sports betting picks. It’ll be a mix of spreads, over/under, money line, and props bets varying from sport to sport.
Win streaks, conference titles, NBA standings and more on the line in these games tonight. Let’s get to the breakdown!
Villanova @ Seton Hall -3.5 (8:30pm EST)
O/U 140
The Villanova Wildcats go on the road to take on Seton Hall in a Big East conference match-up. The Seton Hall Pirates have a huge opportunity to clinch the Big East title with a win tonight while the Wildcats sit 2 games back in the standings. Villanova is 7-3 straight up and 6-3-1 ATS on the road this season. Seton Hall is 11-3 straight up and 9-5 ATS at home this season. Seton Hall doesn’t want to lose this match and have to face Creighton with the title on the line. I like Seton Hall to cover.
My Pick: Seton Hall -3.5
MEM @ BKN -1.5 (7:30pm EST)
O/U 223.5
The Memphis Grizzlies are coming off back-to-back wins against the Lakers and the Hawks. They are traveling to take on the Brooklyn Nets who are coming off a big comeback win against the Celtics. The Grizzlies play with the 7th fastest pace in the league which I think that will favor them against a team coming off an overtime away game. Memphis has covered the last 5 meetings in Brooklyn. The Nets, on the other hand, are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games as home favorite but 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games playing with 0 days rest. Memphis has covered 53.3% of their games this season and I see that continuing tonight.
My Pick: MEM +1.5
UTAH @ NYK +8 (7:30pm EST)
O/U 218.5
The Utah Jazz look to win their fourth straight game on the road versus the New York Knicks. The Jazz are looking for their season sweep versus the Knicks as their match in January ended 128-104 in the Jazz favor. The Knicks are actually looking for their third straight victory after beating the Rockets on Monday. One betting trend that stuck out is Utah is 11-5 ATS in their last 16 road games. I see that continuing with this line under double-digits.
My Pick: UTAH -8
