NCAA-B | St Bonaventure vs UCLA
Play on: OVER 154½ -107
Free Pick on St. Bonaventure/UCLA OVER
I'm recommending a play on the OVER in Tuesday's First Four matchup that has UCLA and St. Bonaventure facing off. The Bruins had a rough night shooting in their loss to Arizona in the Pac-12 tournament, scoring just 67 points on 39.7% from the field. Prior to that they had scored at least 75 points in 10 straight games and each of their previous 5 contests all finished with at least 155 combined points.
The key for the Bruins is getting out in transition and letting Aaron Holiday work his magic. They should be able to do both against St Bonaventure, who also likes to get out and run with their dynamic backcourt of Jaylen Adams and Matt Mobley.
The Bonnies aren't quite as strong offensively as UCLA, but are averaging a healthy 80.4 ppg over their last 5 and the Bruins are not a great defensive team. In fact, UCLA allowed 80.6 ppg away from home this season and 78.2 ppg over their last 5 overall. The other big key here is the Bruins aren't great at defending the 3-pointer and that's where St. Bonaventure is lethal from. The Bonnies were 21st in 3-point shooting.
OVER is 20-9 in St Bonaventure's last 29 games vs a team like UCLA who is shooting 45% or better from the field and a perfect 6-0 in their last 6 vs a team that's outscoring opponents by 4+ points/game. Take the OVER!

NBA | Wolves vs Wizards
Play on: Wizards -3½ -107 at pinnacle
Jack’s Free Pick Tuesday: Washington Wizards -3.5
The Minnesota Timberwolves haven’t been playing very well without Jimmy Butler. They are just 3-9 ATS in their last 12 games overall. They had lost three straight before a 109-103 upset victory over the Warriors at home last time out.
But that now sets the Timberwolves up for a letdown spot tonight as they hit the road to face the Wizards. They certainly won’t be as motivated for this game as they were to face the defending champs. And the Timberwolves are just 13-21 SU & 14-18-2 ATS on the road this season.
Washington comes in fresh and ready to go working on two days’ rest after last playing on Saturday. And the Wizards are playing well, going 12-7 SU & 11-6-2 ATS in their last 19 games overall. Look for them to take care of business at home tonight.
Washington is 9-1 ATS after having lost four or five of its last six games this season. Minnesota is 3-11 ATS in road games vs. teams who commit 14 or fewer turnovers per game this season. The Timberwolves are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games vs. a team with a winning record. The home team is 12-4 ATS in the last 16 meetings. Minnesota is 2-10 ATS in its last 12 trips to Washington. Bet the Wizards Tuesday.

NCAA-B | Hampton vs Notre Dame
Play on: Hampton +22½ -106 at pinnacle
Hampton +22.5
Hampton played at Virginia earlier this year so they should be prepared playing an ACC team. Notre Dame does have Bonzie Colson back but they should have a small crowd for this game vs. the Pirates of Hampton. I think the Irish win by 18 so take the points.

NBA | Mavs vs Knicks
Play on: Mavs -1 -110 at BMaker
Dave’s Tuesday Free Play:
1* on Dallas Mavericks -1 The Key: The New York Knicks can’t be trusted at all right now. They are just 1-15 SU & 3-13 ATS in their last 16 games overall. Head coach Jeff Hornacek has had to answer a lot of questions right now about tanking. He is starting different lineups to try and get Trey Burke, Frank Nitiklina and Emmanuel Mudiay more playing time. Of course it doesn’t help that their best player in Kristaps Porzingis is out for the season, and Enes Kanter is battling a back injury. The Mavs are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a double-digit home loss, which came at the hands of Houston. Dallas is 15-6 ATS in its last 21 games following an ATS loss. The Knicks are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 home games. Take Dallas.

NBA | Pistons vs Jazz
Play on: Jazz -8½ -102 at pinnacle
1 Unit FREE PLAY on Utah Jazz -8.5
The Jazz are playing as well as anyone in the NBA right now. They have gone 18-2 in their last 20 games overall, including six straight wins by 7 points or more coming in. The same cannot be said for the Pistons, who are just 3-10 SU in their last 13 games and 3-11 ATS in their last 14 games. The Jazz are trying to make the playoffs, while the Pistons have played themselves out of contention. Detroit is 0-7 ATS in its last seven road games. Utah is 5-0 ATS in its last five vs. Eastern Conference teams. The Jazz are 19-8 ATS in the last 27 meetings. Give me the Jazz.

NBA | Hornets vs Pelicans
Play on: Pelicans -4½ -105 at BMaker
NEW ORLEANS over Charlotte
After losing back-to-back games, the Pels must win this evening to keep pace for a playoff spot. They have more talent (38-28 vs. 29-38) than Charlotte and bring a 6-0 ATS mark against losing teams to the floor. In the series, NO shows 19-7-1 ATS, while the Hornets own a 2-11 ATS mark at New Orleans. Finally, with Charlotte, a PERFECT 0-8 vs. the West, play New Orleans. Good Luck.

NCAA-B | St Bonaventure vs UCLA
Play on: UNDER 155½ -105
Take Under the Total in the game between the St. Bonaventure Bonnies and the UCLA Bruins. St. Bonaventure (25-7) will likely be without their 6’6 forward Courtney Stockard who did not play in their 82-70 loss to Davidson as a 3.5-point underdog after he suffered a hamstring injury the previous day in their win over Richmond. The Bonnies will miss the 26.1 PPG that was scoring over his last four games. St. Bonaventure has played 16 of their last 21 games after a point spread loss. The Bonnies have also played 5 of their last 6 games Under the Total against teams outside the Atlantic 10. UCLA (21-11) made 10 shots from 3-point land last Friday in their 78-67 loss to Arizona after making 12 shots from behind the arc in their previous game against Stanford. The Bruins have played 12 of their last 18 games Under the Total after making at least 10 shots from the 3-point line in two straight games. And in their last 70 games against teams with a winning record, UCLA has played 42 of these games Under the Total. Take the Under. Best of luck — Frank.
