Welcome to another terrific Tuesday of sports. The NFL season might seem a long way away, but the combine starts in Indianapolis today after last year’s event was canceled, so the road to the 2022 season really starts here. Today we have NBA, NHL, college basketball and soccer to enjoy. Let’s get straight into it!
About Last Night
NBA Best Bets go 2-0
They’re called Best Bets for a reason and Pickswise went 2-0 with our 3-star NBA plays on Monday as Raptors -2.5 vs Nets and over 225.5 in the same game both cashed as Toronto won 133-97. Meanwhile, all 7 favorites on Monday night managed to cover the spread.
NHL games all go over
There were only 3 games in the NHL yesterday but the over hit in all of them as 24 goals were scored in total. Pickswise went 2-1 on both the sides and on the totals, with the Bruins slamming the Kings 7-0 in the day’s most eye-catching result.
Bears beat Longhorns
March is here but there was no madness on the hardwood on the final day of February as the rankings held true for once. Baylor beat Texas 68-61 in the only clash between 2 ranked teams on Monday.

Best Bet of the Day
Toronto Raptors -8 vs Brooklyn Nets
7:30pm ET
The Nets and Raptors run it back after last night’s 133-97 Toronto win at Barclays Center. This time the game is being played in Canada and that means no Kyrie Irving for Brooklyn. Last night’s game was pretty much over after the first 12 minutes as the Nets allowed 42 points while scoring only 27. The Raptors have beaten the Nets 13 times in their last 15 home games against them, and covered the spread in 7 of their last 9 games against Eastern Conference opponents. The Nets are just 3-14 in their last 17 games, and 2-6 ATS in their last 8 against Toronto. Go with the home team. Read our full game preview for Nets vs Raptors.
