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.

Kyrie Irving & Devin Booker to combine for 60+ points – Boosted from +140 to +160 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop will need Kyrie Irving and Devin Booker to combine for at least 60 points tonight. It is true that Irving has not played all that much this season, but he is averaging 24.5 in 8 games. Booker is averaging 25.1 points per game, but in 1 game against the Nets this season, he scored 30 points. Booker averaged 28.2 points per game in the month of January, which includes scoring at least 28 points or more in 8 of his last 9 game. Irving is coming off back to back 30+ point games and is well rested for this road trip. For that reason, backing this play looks to be worth a play.

Pascal Siakam to record 35+ combined points & rebounds – Boosted from +220 to +250 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop we will need Pascal Siakam to record at least 35 combined points and rebounds. He is averaging 21.1 points per game and 8.3 rebounds per game. In the game last Saturday against this same Heat team, he scored 21 points and had 13 rebounds. This was a game that went to triple overtime and he still was not able to hit the number we need. The Raptors played last night against the Hawks, and have to be fatigued, so backing this prop looks best to avoid.

Sidney Crosby & Alexander Ovechkin to record 2+ combined goals – Boosted from +240 to +275 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop will focus on Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin and will need them to record at least 2 combined goals. Ovechkin is 3rd in the NHL with 29 goals, but has failed to score in 3 straight games. Crosby has just 12 goals this season, but did score in the most recent game. Despite a few recent scoring droughts for both guys, these are still 2 of the best players in the league, so backing this prop has to be worth a small look.

Pittsburgh Penguins, Boston Bruins & Tampa Bay Lightning All to Win – Boosted from +190 to +260 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay we will need 3 NHL teams to win their games tonight: the Pittsburgh Penguins against the Washington Capitals, Boston Bruins against the Seattle Kraken, and the Tampa Bay Lightning against the San Jose Sharks. We do like the Kraken to cover on the puck line, but the Bruins still seem likely to beat the struggling first year team. We do like the Lightning to easily beat the Sharks, and while the Penguins/Capitals game looks to be a toss up, this parlay still looks to be worth a small play.
