The weirdest spread of the night is the Suns -9. The Suns have nine players available for tonight at the moment. Yes, this is a road back-to-back for Minnesota, but this number is far too big.
Every few hours someone else enters the Covid protocols. Covid and injuries are everywhere. Be careful out there!
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!

Basketball Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
Jaylen Brown to make 4+ 3’s +200 (DK)
Brown’s prop is set to 2.5 and the over is heavily juiced.
Brown is +184 to make 4+ threes on Fan Duel. Ehhh, it is a small boost, if you like it you can. I am passing.
Giannis to combine for 50+ points/rebounds/assists +350 (DK)
Giannis’s combo is set to 42.5.
Giannis’s point prop is set to 26.5.
Giannis’s rebound prop is set to 10.5 and the under is juiced.
Giannis’s assists prop is set to 5.5 and the under is juiced.
You can parlay Giannis to go 30+/10+/4+ at +356. That pays more and requires less, but yes, this is not combined. Pass on this boost.
ATL/MEM/CHA to all win +320 (Fox)
Hawks are -2 against Boston.
Memphis is -4 against the Jazz.
Charlotte is -7.5 against the Lakers. (This means LeBron and, or, AD sit).
This parlay should pay +277. I am not that into the Hawks and Jazz might be missing people. Pass for me.
Jaylen Brown and Trae to each score 25+ points +245 (Barstool)
Brown’s prop is set to 24.5.
Trae’s prop is set to 26.5 and the under is juiced.
This should pay around +200. I just cannot back Brown in this spot. He has been wildly inconsistent. I think Trae should be fine, but this game has a lowish total. I am out. This game needs to stay competitive and they both have to shoot well. Pass for me.
NBA
Look, I am being very careful here as news changes rapidly and who knows with all these G-League players on every team.
