    PTS + AST
    Picked: Oct 26 @ 9:55am

    Analysis

    DraftKings (1.5u). Trae Young has cleared this line in three straight games, averaging 13.7 FGA, 11 FTA, and 20 potential assists. He’ll face a Hornets team devoid of backcourt defenders to slow him down. Young is serving as the catalyst for the Wizards, as the team is fully enabling him à la his Hawks days. This is a line that the point guard has hit at a 72% clip over the last three seasons when playing at least 28 minutes.

    -113
    Points
    Picked: Oct 26 @ 11:11am

    Analysis

    Anthony Edwards is listed as questionable with a knee issue, and the Timberwolves are playing the second night of a back-to-back. Even if he suits up, it’s hard to see him at full strength attacking the rim the way he usually does. The scoring has been up and down early. Edwards opened the season with 45 points, then followed it up with 15 and 26. Going back to last season, he’s come in under 28.5 in 18 of his last 30 games. Cleveland won’t make it easy, either. The Cavaliers are holding opponents to a 49.7% effective field-goal percentage, and with Edwards likely leaning more on his jumper, I like him to come up short of this number.

    Picked: Oct 25 @ 3:47pm

    Analysis

    The World Series moves to Tampa Bay with the Brewers winning the first two games in Milwaukee by one run each. In Game 3, I'm expecting the Rays to give a maximum effort, fighting with all they have to stay alive in this series. This is the pressure game that they know they have to win, and I like that with my bet. All the cards are on the table. The Rays have a tough task ahead of them with left-hander Robert Gasser pitching, who the Brewers have won his last four starts with him only allowing only two runs. Former Brewer Freddy Peralta has been his old dominant self for the Rays. They’ve gone 10-0 in his last 10 appearances. Rays win Game 3.

    Milwaukee
    Over 3.5
    -102
    Runs
    Picked: Oct 25 @ 10:18pm

    Analysis

    The Brewers will have nine at bats against the Rays pitching staff and starter Freddy Peralta as the away team in Game three of the World Series. Milwaukee's offense has been relentless thus far in the postseason, leading nearly all offensive categories and most recently showing no panic when coming back from down four runs to win a couple nights ago. Freddy Peralta should be fastball heavy, a pitch that this Brewers lineup was solid against this year, and the changeup has not fooled them either. With a 2-0 lead in the series, all the pressure is off Milwaukee, so they can swing free and easy, be relaxed, and continue scoring some runs.

    Spread
    Picked: Oct 26 @ 9:15am

    Analysis

    This is a big number for OKC to be laying on the second night of a back-to-back. Jalen Williams suffered a severe leg injury in Sunday's win over the Clippers, while fellow starter Cason Wallace left with a shoulder injury. Look for Devin Booker, who's coming off a 43-point outburst Saturday and has gotten to the foul line 17 times in two games, to lead the way as the Suns keep it respectable.
