Best sportsbook promotions and odds boosts for Tuesday: NHL and NBA

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.

LeBron James to record 15+ points in each half – Boosted from +275 to +340 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop will need LeBron James to record at least 15 points in each half tonight against the Brooklyn Nets. James is averaging 29.0 points per game this season and tends to start fast in almost every game he plays in. The Nets will be missing Kevin Durant, which should make it easier for James to also dominate this game. Asking for 15 points in a half is a lot for anybody, but James is still a top player in the NBA, so backing this prop looks to be worth a small lean.

Stephen Curry & Luka Doncic to make 8+ combined threes – Boosted from +175 to +190 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop we will need Stephen Curry and Luka Doncic to combine for at least 8 3-pointers made. Curry is averaging 4.8 3-pointers made per game this season, while Doncic is averaging 2.3. This falls just short of the number we need, but Curry has made at least 4 3-pointers in 2 of his last 3 games. He is coming off a 1 for 13 performance from downtown, which is unlikely to happen again and Doncic has made several threes in each of his last few games. For that reason this prop looks to be worth a play.

New York Islanders to win by 3+ goals – Boosted from +205 to +250 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop we will need the New York Islanders to beat the Philadelphia Flyers by at least 3 goals. The Flyers are abysmal right now and have lost 12 games in a row. During that stretch they have lost twice to the Islanders with one game ending 4-1. The Islanders should be well-rested having last played this past Saturday, while the Flyers will be playing the second leg of a back-to-back situation. Because the Flyers have been so poor recently, backing this prop looks to be worth a small play.

This prop will need there to be at least two 3-pointers made in the first 3 minutes of the game between the Nets and Lakers. Both teams are likely going to be firing from downtown all night, so even though Durant is not available tonight, this prop looks to be worth a play.

For this parlay we will need 3 NHL teams to win their games tonight: the Carolina Hurricanes against the Vegas Golden Knights, Pittsburgh Penguins against the Arizona Coyotes, and New York Islanders against the Philadelphia Flyers. Our experts like the Penguins to win without issue and would back the Islanders against a Flyers team who has not won since the end of December. The Hurricanes do have a tough matchup with the Golden Knights, but they still have the quality to pull out a win. For that reason this parlay looks to be worth a shot.
