There are plenty of sports going on today with the NBA Playoffs, NHL Playoffs, the Euro 2020 soccer tournament and a big slate of MLB baseball games. There look to be a host of promotions and boosts on offer from sportsbooks. But which ones should you look to capitalize on?
We’ve put together a list of all of the day’s best boosts, which happen to be from DraftKings Sportsbook, William Hill Sportsbook and PointsBet Sportsbook today, and whether they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.
Yankees, Rockies and Phillies all to win (Boosted to +700), William Hill Sportsbook
Three MLB teams will need to win tonight for this odds boost to cash, but our experts only like two of the three teams. We like the Yankees against Dylan Bundy and the Los Angeles Angels and the Rockies against Tyler Anderson and the Pittsburgh Pirates. As for the Phillies, we do not trust them against Wade Miley and the Cincinnati Reds. The Phillies continue to have bullpen problems, so I would be cautious to play this odds boost. Be sure to check out our picks on the side and total for all of tonight’s MLB matchups.

Chris Paul 20+ points and the Suns to win (Boosted to +260), William Hill Sportsbook
Chris Paul’s return to the lineup has not been as productive as most would think. He scored 15 points in Game 3 on 5 of 19 shooting (2 of 7 from three) and 18 points in Game 4 on 6 of 22 shooting (0 of 3 from three). Despite the struggles, he has almost hit 20 points in both game. Our experts already like the Suns to close out the series and expect Paul will have a much better shooting night. For that reason, this looks to be a solid odds boost.

Brayden Point to record over 1.5 points (Boosted to +260), William Hill Sportsbook
Brayden Point saw his nine-game goal streak come to an end in Game 7 of their series with the New York Islanders, but there is plenty of reason to believe he can bounce back with a big Game 1. Nikita Kucherov for example did not look like himself during Game 7 after suffering an injury in Game 6. If he is not 100 percent, Point is going to have to step up even more. We know he can score, but the Lightning have so much depth that an assist could be on the cards as well. Montreal’s defense is solid, but there is still reason to believe that Point is poised for a big game. Be sure to check out our full game preview for this matchup.

Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton to combine for 50+ points (Boosted to +200), PointsBet Sportsbook
Devin Booker has not quite been the same since breaking his nose in Game 2. He is still averaging 25.0 points per game in the series, but with Chris Paul having come back, his points are down. Then we have Deandre Ayton, who is averaging 20.3 points per game. Booker and Ayton have only combined for more than 50 points once in this series, so it is probably best to avoid this odds boost and to expect plenty of production from the Suns role players.

Brayden Point to score a goal and the Lightning to win (Boosted to +180), PointsBet Sportsbook
Brayden Point has been on fire recently, scoring nine times over his last 10 games. If the Lightning are going to win Game 1, they will likely need him to find the back of the net. We already like Point to score as a prop, however we are not as confident that the Lightning will be able to win this game. For that reason, this looks to be a play best avoiding.

Karim Benzema to score a goal in the first half (Boosted to +480), DraftKings Sportsbook
The main concern about this odds boost is that we will only have 45 minutes to cash. Karim Benzema is obviously a prolific scorer, but the Switzerland defense may pack it in tight and we could see a cagey first half where they look to counter. These are still some nice looking odds, however I would not be overly confident that Benzema will be able to score. For that reason, this looks to be an odds boost to stay away from.

Reggie Jackson to record 25+ points and assists (Boosted to +110), DraftKings Sportsbook
The Los Angeles Clippers are on the brink of elimination as they head back to Phoenix for Game 5. Reggie Jackson has been a big contributor and will probably need to step up even more if the Clippers plan to crawl back. He is averaging 21.5 points per game in the series and 2.8 assists, there is a real chance he could hit this prop tonight. With Paul George not looking like his best at times recently, expect Jackson to have a solid enough game to give the Clippers a fighting chance. For that reason, this looks to be an odds boost worth backing. Be sure to check out our full game preview for this matchup.
