We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Tuesday, including action from college football, college basketball, the NHL and the NBA.
One pick is taken from each sport and a winning ticket gives us a nice payout with odds at +1055 with DraftKings; that’s more than 10/1! Let’s break down each of these plays.
College Basketball: Kentucky Wildcats vs LSU Tigers -2.5 (-110), 7:00 pm ET
LSU enters 2022 with a 12-1 record as they lost for the first time this season in their last game, 70-55 on the road to the Auburn Tigers in their SEC opener. The Tigers offense was not good enough in that one, shooting just 28.6% from the field and 20.7% from 3. They also racked up only 4 assists as a team, which led to them scoring just 55 points. Despite that poor performance, LSU has one of the best defenses in the country and is undefeated at home this season. Take LSU to bounce back and cover the small spread.

NBA: Memphis Grizzlies ML (+120) vs Cleveland Cavaliers, 7:10 pm ET
The Grizzlies enter play on the heels of an impressive road victory against the Brooklyn Nets yesterday. Across their last 5 games, Memphis leads the NBA with a +12.0 Net Rating, having won each of those contests. When playing on no rest this season, the Grizzlies are only 3-3 straight up, but when priced as an underdog, Memphis is 11-6, having covered the spread in 6 of their last 7 such situations. The Grizzlies have consistently been one of the most undervalued teams in the league over the last month, so bettors should once again take a stab on Memphis at plus-money in this spot.

College Football: LSU Tigers vs Kansas State Wildcats -7 (-120), 9:00 pm ET
LSU is in a stage of transition and until Brian Kelly is fully in charge, expectations will not be high for this team. The Tigers have not had a losing season since 2000, but the flurry of opt-outs and transfers from the program may be too much for them to overcome. LSU is just 1-2-1 against the spread as a single-digit underdog this season while Kansas State is 3-1 ATS as a single-digit favorite. Kansas State will be looking to end their season on a positive note by avenging their poor performance against Texas and the Wildcats should roll over LSU in Houston.

NHL: Winnipeg Jets ML (-200) vs Arizona Coyotes, 9:05 pm ET
At this point in the season, every team in the NHL will have an offensive advantage over the Coyotes. They rank dead last in expected goals, goals, and goals per game. The Coyotes have scored 63 goals this season through 30 games. Winnipeg has played 1 more game than the Coyotes and has scored 94 goals — just under a whole goal per game better. In net, the gap between the teams is just as large. Projected Jets starter Connor Hellebuyck ranks 9th out of 89 goalies in goals saved above average. Both goalies on the Coyotes roster rank 79th and 80th in the same category. Look to the Jets, who need points against bottom teams to stay in the playoff picture.
