NBA pick today: Milwaukee Bucks -12 over Indiana Pacers (-110), 7:10 pm ET
Entering as 12-point favorites, the Bucks can wrap up the season series with their 3rd win in 4 meetings. They have won 4 of their last 5 games overall, with the only defeat coming in Denver on the second night of a back-to-back.
The Pacers on the other hand, haven’t had much luck in games against the Bucks, losing 6 of the last 7 meetings at home and 10 of the last 11 overall. With a 1-5 ATS/SU record in their last 6 games overall, backing the Bucks to pick up a convincing win will be our best play.

NHL pick today: Florida Panthers vs Toronto Maple Leafs – Over 7 goals (-110), 7:30 pm ET
With both teams rostering so much talent, we’d much rather target the total than sweating out a winner. Starting with the Florida side of things, goaltending continues to be an issue. That recent upset loss to the Senators was due to them allowing 5 goals. That also marked 4 straight games of allowing at least 4 goals, which includes allowing 6 to the Maple Leafs less than a week ago. Toronto won that recent matchup 6-2, but with Florida fighting for their playoff lives, we expect both teams to find the back of the net early and often.

NBA pick today: Detroit Pistons vs Oklahoma City Thunder – Over 231 points (-110), 8:10 pm ET
The Thunder have allowed 137, 116 and 127 points in 3 of their last 4 games and their defense is looking like Swiss cheese at the moment. The over has also cashed in 7 of their last 8 at home and they are 24-13-1 on the O/U at the Paycom Center this season.
Detroit on the other hand, has a ton of players out with injuries but the Pistons were still able to put up 117 on the Bucks in their last game. With neither team putting in that much effort on the defensive end, backing the over will be the play tonight.

NBA pick today: Los Angeles Lakers -2 over Chicago Bulls (-115), 8:10 pm ET
LeBron James and co. will be looking for revenge after the Bulls beat them 118-108 in LA on Sunday, which was only the third time the Lakers had lost to Chicago in the last 11 meetings. The Lakers should also get D’Angelo Russell back, which is a big deal considering they’re 7-4 SU when he plays. LA’s road record at United Center is also positive at 5-1 ATS in the last 6 visits.
Chicago came out of the gate really hot on Sunday in LA, but I’m more inclined to give the Lakers the nod here. They have the edge in head-to-head meetings and it’s more realistic that the teams will split the season series than the Bulls sweeping. For that reason, backing the Lakers to cover will be the play.
