About Last Night
Depleted Rams score big win over Cardinals
The Los Angeles Rams overcame the loss of key players on gameday to record a crucial 30-23 NFC West win over the Arizona Cardinals. Pickswise is now 5-1 on the last 3 weeks of MNF picks after the total went over 51.5, while PropBetGuy’s top play of over 23.5 Kyler Murray completions was an easy winner (he had 32). Find out what Andrew Ortenberg made of both teams in our Monday Night Football reaction.
Curry just short of record, but Warriors win
Steph Curry starts tonight’s game against the Knicks just a single 3-pointer short of Ray Allen’s all-time record after hitting 5 shots from deep in the Warriors’ 102-100 win over the Pacers. The Celtics beat the Bucks 117-103 and the Clippers eclipsed the Suns 111-95 in the late game.

Best Bet of the Day
Alabama Crimson Tide -3.5 vs Memphis Tigers (NCAAB)
9:00 pm ET, ESPN
The 6th-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide will travel to Memphis to face the Memphis Tigers for a non-conference game. Memphis moved to 5-4 on the season after losing to Murray State 74-72 on Saturday. That gave the Tigers their 4th straight loss after starting off 5-0. It will be extremely tough for Memphis to pull off a win against Alabama, which is coming off wins against Gonzaga and Houston. Alabama is 8-1 on the season, suffering its only loss to Iona in the ESPN Events Invitational. Junior guard Jaden Shackelford has been outstanding for the Crimson Tide, averaging 19.1 points and 6.9 rebounds on the season. Head coach Nate Oats has the Crimson Tide playing at an elite level, so back them against a struggling Memphis team. Read our full game preview for Alabama vs Memphis.
