I love big Friday night NBA slates. Having more games for DFS and to bet on increases the fun and intrigue. I am not going to post what I am doing as of yet, because I will be using some NBA in the Draft Kings Sports Betting Championship tonight.
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!

Basketball Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
25% Profit Boost on any one SGP (DK)
Remember these are insanely profitable for the books and they will keep making offers like this for you to use and try.
NOP/GSW to combine for 30+ made 3’s +225 (DK)
The Pelicans average 11.4 made 3’s per game.
The Warriors average 15.6 made 3’s per game.
Combined this should be at 27 or so made threes. Considering this is basically asking them to go over their average by three it is not a bad price at all. However, this game has blowout potential and a surprising low total of only 214. Pass for me.
Giannis and Randle to combine for 5+ Blocks/Steals +225 (DK)
Giannis’s Block prop is set to 1.5 and the under is heavily juiced.
Randle’s Block prop is set to 0.5 and the under is very heavily juiced.
Giannis’s steals prop is set to 0.5 and the over is heavily juiced.
Randle’s steal prop is set to 0.5 and the over is juiced.
All of this adds up to the under for me. The Knicks play slower and it seems these props are suggesting around 3+ blocks/steals for these two. I am passing.
Harden/FVV to score 25+ each +350 (Fox)
Harden’s point prop is set to 21.5 and the under is slightly juiced.
FVV’s point prop is set to 18.5.
You can parlay them to go over their player prop for +272. This boost is pretty aggressive in terms of what each would need to get to 25+. FVV is +360 himself on FD to get 25+ so obviously; this boost is not great and should be avoided. Pass.
BRK/SAS/CAVS to all win +450 (Fox)
This should pay +440. This is not much of a boost. The Spurs are a small road favorite and the Cavs are a decent sized dog. Pass for me. I want my boosts, to be real boosts.
