We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which today are from DraftKings Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook. We’ll discuss whether or not they are worth playing.

Evan Fournier to score 20+ points – Boosted from +230 to +270 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop focuses on Evan Fournier for the New York Knicks and needs him to score at least 20+ points tonight against the Boston Celtics. He averages only 12.8 points per game, but in his first game against the Celtics this season, Fournier scored 32 points. Because he had that success against Boston, this prop looks to be worth a play.

Devin Booker to record 35+ points & assists combined – Boosted from +180 to +210 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Devin Booker to combine for 35+ points and assists. He is averaging 23.9 points per game and 4.5 assists per game. However, Booker has been able to score at least 30+ points in 3 of the last 5 games, so this prop looks to be worth a play as the assists should come if he has a big scoring night.

Both teams to score in the first period of New York Rangers vs Vegas Golden Knights – Boosted from +165 to +185 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop focuses on the New York Rangers and Vegas Golden Knights as they go head-to-head tonight. We will need both teams to score in the first period and with how each offense is playing right now, this looks like a prop worth backing. The Golden Knights are averaging 1.02 goals in the first period and while the Rangers average 0.70 goals in the first period, the Golden Knights allow an average of 0.89 goals in the first period, making this prop worth a small play.

USC to win by 10+ points – Boosted from +160 to +180 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop focuses on the USC Trojans remaining undefeated as they take on the California Bears tonight. Our experts already like them to cover the spread and win the game, so adding a few more points to that still looks to be a worthwhile play. The Trojans have not shown many weaknesses yet and should be able to win on the road by double digits. For that reason, this prop looks to be worth a play.

Pittsburgh Penguins, Colorado Avalanche & New Jersey Devils all to win – Boosted from +270 to +330 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we need 3 NHL teams to win their games tonight: the Pittsburgh Penguins against the Philadelphia Flyers, the Colorado Avalanche against the Winnipeg Jets and the New Jersey Devils against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Our experts like the Avalanche tonight and would  lean to the Devils as well. The Penguins have a very winnable game against a struggling Flyers team. For that reason, this parlay looks to be worth a small play.
