About Last Night
No party like a Pickswise parlay party
Just 1 day after nailing his CBB mega parlay, our ace capper Andrew Ortenberg was at it again, this time cashing his NBA mega parlay at +1303 odds! His picks of the Pistons and Kings on the money line came off, much to the delight of the Pickswise Nation. Meanwhile, our 3-star play on the Mavs to beat the Warriors was a winner, while the Lakers’ collapse showed no signs of slowing down as they were crushed 132-111 by the Clippers.
Coyotes upset Avalanche AGAIN
Just 1 month after the Coyotes pulled off the upset of the season against the Avalanche, Arizona once again had Colorado’s number by securing a 2-1 victory at +300 odds to hand the Avs only their 11th regulation loss of the 2021-22 campaign.

Best Bet of the Day
NCAAB: Kent State -2.5 over Buffalo
6:00 pm ET, ESPNU
Despite losing the first meeting to Buffalo by 13, Kent State is the choice to even the score on its home floor in the rematch. There are a few notable takeaways from the box score of the first game — the first being that Kent State’s defense actually held up pretty well against Buffalo’s electric offense. The Golden Flashes held the Bulls to less than 1 point per possession, which shouldn’t come as a big surprise considering that Kent State leads the MAC in KenPom’s adjusted defensive efficiency. It’s worth noting that 2 of Kent State’s better 3-point shooters missed the first game. Read our full game preview for Buffalo vs Kent State.
