I am headed out of town for Thanksgiving. I will try to post as much as I can, but you might see many Twitter updates from me. I was planning on this being the week I have to skip in the Draft Kings picks contest. I am currently 30-25 for 54.5%, which places me in 308th place. Only the top 135 are paid, so I have some work to do. I believe just going 3-2 the every single week remaining would be more than enough to cash, but I want a big score. I need to get some more 4-1 and 5-0’s to make it interesting, but until that happens, I am stuck on the outside looking in.
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!

Basketball Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
AD and Randle to score 50+ combined +130 (DK)
Combined bets are never the answer.
AD’s point prop is set to 24.5.
Randle’s point prop is set to 21.5.
A parlay of them to both go over pays +253. Easy pass on this boost for me.
Luka to record a triple-double +500 (DK)
This is his first game back after being out with an injury. He has not officially been ruled in yet, but should be playing. Do you want to play him in his first game back and expect he does this? I do not. Pass.
Dame to make 5+ 3’s +280 (DK)
Dame’s made 3’s prop is set to 3.5 and the under is juiced.
Dame to make 5+ 3’s pays +270 on FD. This is not much of a boost and not something you need to bet unless you already like it. Pass for me.
NBA
Bam over 18.5 points
Olynk is hurt, Stewart is suspended, which leaves Luka Garza and I suppose Trey Lyles to try and stop Bam tonight. While a blowout could happen, the fact that this is a road game may work in our favor. I really like Bam to have a big night.
