Tuesday's SEC Tips
Brian Edwards

**Mississippi State at Kentucky**

-- As of early this morning, most betting shops had Kentucky (14-3 straight up, 8-9 against the spread) listed as a 6.5-point favorite with a total of 144.5. The Bulldogs were +230 on the money line (risk $100 to win $230).

-- John Calipari’s club is undefeated in 10 home games with a 4-6 spread record. Kentucky is in a three-way tie for third place in the SEC, joining South Carolina and Ole Miss with 4-1 records in league play. Tennessee is atop the national rankings and the SEC standings with its 5-0 conference ledger, while LSU is 4-0 in SEC action.

-- Since losing its SEC opener by a 77-75 count at Alabama, UK has responded with four consecutive victories and back-to-back spread covers. The Wildcats have won vs. Texas A&M (85-74), vs. Vanderbilt (56-47), at UGA (69-49) and at Auburn (82-80). They won Saturday at Auburn as 4.5-point road underdogs. Keldon Johnson and Tyler Herro led the way past the Tigers with 20 points apiece, as Herro drained 3-of-6 launches from downtown and all five of his free-throw attempts. Reid Travis added 17 points and seven rebounds, while P.J. Washington finished with 13 points and seven boards.

-- UK is No. 8 in the NCAA’s new NET Rankings and No. 13 at KenPom.com. The ‘Cats are 3-3 against K-Pom Top-100 opponents, losing to Duke and Seton Hall on neutral courts in non-conference action. Calipari’s squad has road wins at Louisville and at Auburn, in addition to a neutral-court triumph over UNC.

-- Johnson leads UK in scoring with a 15.0 points-per-game average. Herro (13.5 PPG), Travis (13.0 PPG) and Washington (11.8 PPG) are also averaging in double figures. Freshman guard Ashton Hagans dropped a career-high 23 points on Georgia last week and is pacing the Wildcats in assists (3.6 APG) and steals (2.2 SPG). Washington lead the ‘Cats in rebounding, pulling down 7.9 boards per game.

-- Mississippi State (14-3 SU, 8-9 ATS) is 2-1 both SU and ATS in three road assignments.

-- Ben Howland’s team is No. 21 at K-Pom, going 6-2 versus Top-100 foes. MSU, No. 36 in Net Rankings, has quality neutral-court victories over Clemson and Saint Mary’s, in addition to home scalps over Florida, Wofford and Cincinnati. The Bulldogs also have wins at Vanderbilt and at Dayton. They lost in overtime at South Carolina, at home vs. Ole Miss and on a neutral floor against Arizona State.

-- MSU is led by senior guard Quinndary Weatherspoon, who averages 16.6 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.3 steals per game. Weatherspoon is hitting 48.0 percent of his field-goal attempts and 83.1 percent of his free throws.

-- Lamar Peters (13.3 PPG, 5.8 APG) has buried 41.5 percent of his 3-balls and has a 99/51 assist-to-turnover ratio. Aric Holman (12.4 PPG, 8.1 RPG) leads the Bulldogs in rebounding and blocked shots (38), while Nick Weatherspoon, Quinndary’s younger brother, is averaging 10.3 points and 1.1 steals per game.

-- Since losing its first two SEC games, Mississippi State has won back-to-back games vs. Florida (71-68) and at Vanderbilt. Q-Weatherspoon was the catalyst with 17 points, eight rebounds and four assists without a turnover. Tyson Carter and Aric Holman added 10 points apiece and Holman had nine rebounds. The Bulldogs thumped the Commodores 71-55 as three-point road favorites.

-- This is MSU’s first game as an underdog this season.

-- The ‘under’ is 9-8 overall for the ‘Cats, 6-4 in their home contests.

-- The ‘over’ is 4-1 in MSU’s past five games to improve to 9-8 overall. The ‘under’ is 2-1 in the Bulldogs three road outing.

-- Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. Eastern on ESPN.

**Ole Miss at Alabama**

-- Alabama (11-6 SU, 7-9 ATS) had a golden opportunity to bolster its resume enormously Saturday when it had Tennessee, the once-beaten team tabbed as the nation’s best by most national polls yesterday, on the ropes and in big-time trouble Saturday in Knoxville at Thompson-Boling Arena. However, an unfathomably atrocious call by the refs at crunch time, in addition to deplorable FT shooting by Avery Johnson’s team robbed it of being able to pull a tremendous upset. ‘Bama led 63-60 with 5:20 left despite missing nine of its first 10 FTAs in the second half. The Tide finished 8-of-18 from the charity stripe, including 4-of-13 in the final 20 minutes of action. Nevertheless, when UT’s Grant Williams was called for a charge adeptly taken by Donta Hall with the Volunteers ahead 69-68 with 11.9 ticks remaining, Johnson’s bunch had one final shot. John Petty, who scored a game-high 30 points on 6-of-10 shooting from downtown, including five straight makes at one point, took a pass on the wing with about five ticks remaining. He took two dribbles to his left and was inexplicably whistled for a travelling call with 3.2 seconds remaining. I immediately went back and hit rewind and watched Petty’s catch and move to his left off the bounce. There was ZERO indication – not even any sort of feet shuffling or a switch of the pivot foot or ANYTHING out of the ordinary to suggest Petty walked – yet the game-deciding call was made anyway.

-- With 2.5 seconds remaining, UT’s Lamonte’ Turned added two FTs and the Tide’s Kira Lewis missed a 55-foot heave at the buzzer to allow the Vols to win 71-68 as 13-point favorites. Rick Barnes’s club led 44-32 at intermission, only to see the Tide go on a 15-0 run sparked by Petty’s hot hand from long distance. Hall would add 16 points and 12 rebounds, while the freshman Lewis had 12 points on 3-of-6 marksmanship from 3-point range. The Tide outrebounded UT 36-33 but couldn’t overcome its abysmal FT shooting. Dazon Ingram had four rebounds and five assists compared to just one turnover, but he made only 1-of-4 FTs and scored just three points.

-- Alabama fell to 2-3 in SEC play where it sits next to Florida in an eighth-place tie. It wasn’t all bad news for the Tide last week, however, as it did go into Missouri on Wednesday and capture a 70-60 victory as a 1.5-point road favorite. In only 18 minutes of playing time from off the bench, Avery Johnson Jr. was the catalyst with a team-high 14 points. Hall added 12 points, 11 rebounds and a pair of blocked shots in a solid overall defensive effort from ‘Bama, which held to 42.1 percent shooting from the field. The Tide had a 33-28 rebounding advantage.

-- Johnson’s team is No. 56 at K-Pom and No. 50 in the NET Rankings. Alabama has a 7-4 record against K-Pom’s Top 100, including scalps of UK, Missouri, Penn State, Liberty, Arizona, Murray State and Ball State. The Tide has lost to Northeastern on a neutral floor, at home to Georgia State (after leading by 21 at halftime) and Texas A&M (on a buzzer-beating trey off the backboard), in addition to road defeats at UT, at LSU and at UCF. Although the win over UT would’ve bolstered its resume, there’s still plenty of time and quality opponents left on ‘Bama’s slate for it to play its way into the Tournament field.

-- Alabama has won six of eight home games, but it has limped to a 2-5 spread record in Tuscaloosa.

-- As of early this morning, most books had Alabama listed as a one-point home favorite over the Rebels, who are 3-1 SU and 4-0 ATS on the road this year. The total was 152.

-- Ole Miss (14-3 SU, 15-2 ATS) is one of the nation’s biggest surprises under new head coach Kermit Davis, who has his team ranked No. 30 at K-Pom and No. 24 in the NCAA’s new NET rankings. The Rebels are a projected No. 7 seed in the NCAA Tournament, according to Joe Lunardi’s latest ‘Bracketology’ report at ESPN.com (more on all SEC teams from Lunardi below in Bonus Nuggets….). The Rebels are 5-3 against K-Pom’s Top 100 and that doesn’t even include an 81-71 win at Vanderbilt. They have quality home wins over Auburn, Arkansas and San Diego, in addition to a neutral-court triumph over Baylor and a road win at MSU.

-- Here’s the Kermit Davis Factor: Ole Miss is the best ATS team in the nation at 15-2, while his old team, Middle Tennessee, is 4-13 ATS to rank No. 347 out of 353 teams that play lined games. (And that’s with the Blue Raiders covering in back-to-back games and three of their past four!).

-- Ole Miss failed to win outright in last week’s 83-69 loss to red-hot LSU as a 3.5-point home ‘chalk.’ However, Davis’s bunch responded by destroying Arkansas 84-67 Saturday as a six-point home favorite. The Rebels roared out to a 46-35 halftime advantage, only to see the Razorbacks cut the deficit to six less than four minutes into the second half. The Hogs would get no closer, though, as Ole Miss pushed the lead back to double digits and led by as many as 18 in coasting to the easy spread cover. Breein Tyree contributed a game-high 22 points along with four rebounds, three steals, two assists and one blocked shot. Terence Davis finished with 18 points, nine rebounds, seven assists and five steals, while Bruce Stevens had 14 points and seven boards.

-- Tyree, a junior guard, is averaging a team-best 17.5 PPG while shooting 49.7 from the field, 38.2 percent from beyond the arc and 83.1 percent from the FT line. Davis is averaging 16.2 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.9 blocked shots per game. The senior slasher has drained 49.7 percent of his FGAs and 42.2 percent of his treys.

-- If the line holds and leaves the Rebels as underdogs between now and tip, we’ll note that they’ve produced a 5-1 spread record with three outright wins in six such spots as ‘dogs.

-- Ole Miss is ranked No. 18 in the country in FG percentage (49.2%) and 29th in FT shooting accuracy (75.5%). The Rebels are averaging 79.4 PPG to rank 53rd nationally and they’re burying 37.1 percent of their launches from long distance (No. 62 nationally).

-- The ‘over’ is 12-4 overall for the Crimson Tide, but the ‘under’ has been a winner in each of its past two games. The ‘over’ has cashed at a 6-1 clip for ‘Bama in its home outings at Coleman Coliseum.

-- The ‘under’ is on a 6-1 run for the Rebels to improve to 10-7 overall. However, their road assignments have resulted on the ‘over’ going 3-1.

-- This rivalry has seen the ‘over’ go 11-5-1 in the past 17 head-to-head meetings. Ole Miss is 7-3-1 ATS in the last 11 encounters.

-- Ole Miss has won outright in six of the past nine meetings, winning 78-66 as a 2.5-point home favorite on Jan. 23 of last season. Davis had 15 points and nine rebounds for the Rebels, while Hall had 14 points and seven boards for the Tide. Ingram finished with 10 points, eight boards and five assists in the losing effort.

-- ESPNU will have the telecast at 9:00 p.m. Eastern.

**B.E.’s Bonus Nuggets**

-- In Joe Lunardi’s latest NCAA Tournament projections released Tuesday morning, the SEC has seven teams in the Tournament field. UT is the No. 1 seed in the Midwest Region which would face the 8/9 winner of Nebraska-FSU if it advances. Kentucky is the East Region’s No. 2 seed vs. Bucknell with a potential second-round date vs. N.C. State in Jacksonville. LSU and Auburn are both five seeds who would face Hofstra and Saint Louis, respectively. Ole Miss and Mississippi State are No. 7 seeds with potential dates against Syracuse and St. John’s in the opening round. The Gators are slated to face Arizona State in the First Four in Dayton, with either 12-seed getting Purdue in the Round of 32. UF is 2-0 against Purdue in the Tournament with Round of 32 wins in the 1987 and 2007 NCAA Tournaments at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse and in New Orleans, respectively.

-- Florida junior forward Keith Stone tore his ACL in Saturday’s win at Georgia and will miss the rest of the season. As of early this morning, The Gators were 11 or 11.5-point home favorites for tonight’s SEC showdown vs. Texas A&M. Stone (6.1 PPG, 3.9 RPG) was struggling this year, but he did score eight points in nine minutes of action in the first half Saturday at UGA before going down with the injury.

-- Auburn (13-4 SU, 8-7 ATS) has struggled to a 1-2 record both SU and ATS in three true road contests. Bruce Pearl’s team in bounce-back mode tonight at South Carolina after dropping a heartbreaker at home to UK on Saturday. As of early this morning, the Gamecocks were eight-point home underdogs and the total was 155. Frank Martin’s team had its five-game winning streak snapped in Saturday’s 89-67 loss at LSU as a nine-point road underdog. The ‘over’ is 11-4 for the Gamecocks, 6-2 in their home outings. Tip-off is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Eastern on the SEC Network .

-- Rutgers won outright as an 8.5-point home underdog and hooked up its money-line supporters with a +350 payout in last night’s 76-69 win over Nebraska. The Scarlet Knights outscored the Cornhuskers 43-31 in the second half. Gamblers who backed Nebraska -4.5 for first-half bets were extremely fortunate winners as James Palmer Jr. hit a pull-up jumper from about 35 feet out at the buzzer to send his team into intermission with a 38-33 advantage.

-- After falling behind early at home vs. Virginia Tech last night, North Carolina roared back late in the first half and rolled to a 103-82 victory as a four-point home ‘chalk.’ The 185 combined points catapulted ‘over’ the 152.5-point total. UNC freshman Colby White dropped 27 points, seven rebounds, six assists, four steals and one blocked shot on the Hokies, draining 5-of-11 launches from 3-point territory. Nassir Little contributed 23 points, six boards and three assists.

-- Worst ATS teams in the country: Wyoming (3-14), UT-Martin (2-13), Kennesaw State (4-14), Eastern Washington (3-13), Delaware State (4-13), Iona (4-13), MTSU (4-13), Portland State (2-11-1) and Ohio (4-12).

They’ll try to bounce back tonight as six-point home favorites vs. Clemson. The total is 140 points. Leonard Hamilton’s club is 8-1 SU but just 3-6 ATS at home, while the Tigers are 1-2 both SU and ATS in three road assignments. Clemson snapped a three-game losing streak both SU and ATS with last Wednesday’s 72-60 win over Georgia Tech as a nine-point home favorite. This is a 7:00 p.m. Eastern tip on ESPNU.

The Duke Blue Devils will try and avoid having a letdown on Tuesday night as they visit the Pittsburgh Panthers in a game that can be seen on ESPN. The Blue Devils are coming off a big win on Saturday, as they defeated Virginia.

Duke is in a six-way tie for the top spot in the ACC with a 4-1 record, while the Panthers are 2-3 in the conference. Pittsburgh has been very good at home this season going 10-2 and they already have a win against a Top 20 team this season. Let’s look at Duke vs. Pittsburgh and college basketball picks.

Duke Blue Devils vs. Pittsburgh Panthers
Date and Time: Tuesday, January 22, 2019, 9:00 p.m. ET
Location: Petersen Events Center, Pittsburgh, PA
College Basketball Odds: Duke -13.5, O/U 156
Duke vs. Pittsburgh TV Coverage: ESPN

Duke is coming off their biggest win of the season, as they defeated Virginia 72-70 on Saturday. It will be interesting to see how the Blue Devils respond after such an emotional win. Duke has only played two true road games this season and they are 1-1 ATS. They covered at Wake Forest but didn’t cover at Florida State. The Blue Devils are averaging 89.2 points per game which is 3rd best in the country. They are giving up about 67 per contest.

The Panthers have been better than expected this season, as they come into this game at 12-6 overall. They have been a really good team to bet on this season, as they are 13-4-1 ATS. They have been cashing at home, covering 9 of their 12 home games with five going over and seven going under. They are averaging 76 points per game and giving up about 67 per contest.

Key Matchups

If the Panthers are to keep this game close they have to keep RJ Barrett and Zion Williamson under control. The Blue Devils are without Tre Jones who is their key facilitator, but Duke is good enough to win without him. The key for Pittsburgh is to make sure that both Barrett and Williamson don’t beat them. They may just have to let Barrett shoot and try and double Williamson. Barrett scores a lot of points, but he is just 31% from 3-point range. Pitt may just have to live with Barrett taking outside shots.

It should be noted that in two of the three games in which Barrett had his most shot attempts, Duke lost. What Pittsburgh can’t do is let Williamson dominate the game. He is shooting 66% from the field. The Panthers may simply have to play a zone defense to try and keep Williamson under control.

Key Stats

The Blue Devils are 1-3-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings in this series. The Blue Devils are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 vs. the ACC. The Panthers are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 vs. the ACC.

The Over is 4-1-1 in the Blue Devils last 6 vs. the ACC. The Over is 21-10-1 in the Blue Devils last 32 road games.

The Under is 24-8 in the Panthers last 32 home games. The Under is 41-18 in the Panthers last 59 vs. the ACC. The Under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in this series.

NCAA Basketball Preview
Mississippi State Bulldogs at Kentucky Wildcats

The Kentucky Wildcats have some competition in the SEC this season, so a conference championship won’t be a walk in the park like in past years. They have started off well in conference but have a tough matchup this week against the Mississippi State Bulldogs.

Both teams are ranked in the top-25, but the Wildcats are higher in the polls and have the home court advantage, which should make them the comfortable favorite. Mississippi State has not lost any game by more than five points this season and will aim to at least keep this one close, which could benefit it on the spread in college basketball gambling.

This NCAA basketball game between the Mississippi State Bulldogs and Kentucky Wildcats will be held at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky at 7 p.m. ET on Tuesday, January 22th, 2019. The game will be nationally televised on ESPN.

We'll have NCAA basketball odds at BookMaker.eu available for every game of the 2019 NCAA basketball season.

Odds Analysis

Mississippi State has a record of 14-3 on the season. The Bulldogs have split their conference games, losing to South Carolina and Ole Miss before bouncing back with wins over Florida and Vanderbilt. The Bulldogs are in the top-25 in the nation but can’t afford a loss in this one if they want to stay in the mix in the SEC.

Kentucky has a mark of 14-3 on the year, as well, but with a superior conference record at 4-1. The Wildcats lost a close game to Alabama early in SEC play but enter this one on a four-game winning streak. Kentucky is always tough at home and has a good chance to keep pace with the teams above it in the conference standings.

Player To Watch

Quinndary Weatherspoon -- There aren’t a bunch of senior college basketball players anymore because many stars move on to the NBA as underclassmen. However, Weatherspoon has remained at Mississippi State for every season of his eligibility and is hoping to kickstart an upset in this one.

He is having a solid season, leading the team in scoring at 16.6 points per game while adding 5.8 rebounds. Weatherspoon has averaged in double figures in all four of his college seasons and has been in plenty of big games. He will look to be a calming influence on the court during this big-time matchup in a hostile environment.

Scheduling Situation

Kentucky’s schedule is really ramping up, and the way it handles this stretch could tell a lot about this team. The Wildcats are in the midst of facing off against three consecutive ranked teams. They knocked off Auburn by a bucket last time out and will follow this one up with a matchup against the Kansas Jayhawks.

Kentucky also has two games down the road against No. 1 Tennessee, so we will know soon whether the Wildcats have what it takes to capture the SEC.

Free NCAA Basketball ATS Picks

This is not an easy game for the Wildcats, who are facing a foe which has experience and talent. Kentucky is at home and has the better players, so it should win the game, but look to see where the spread comes in for this one. The Wildcats are a good team but it remains to be seen if they can truly be great.

Mississippi State should be able to show some of Kentucky’s vulnerability at times and do enough to cover the spread in NCAA basketball betting lines. The Wildcats and Bulldogs should play in an entertaining game and the “over” is a legitimate choice on the scoring total.

NCAA Basketball Pick: Kentucky Wildcats 79, Mississippi State Bulldogs 75

Tuesday's Tip Sheet
Kevin Rogers

Game of the Night: Blazers at Thunder – 8:05 PM EST

The Northwest division has proven to be the toughest from top to bottom in the league this season. The two teams sitting tied for second place behind Denver meet tonight in Oklahoma City as both play without rest. The Thunder (28-18 SU, 25-21 ATS) return home after pounding the hapless Knicks on Monday afternoon at Madison Square Garden, 127-109 as nine-point favorites. OKC shot over 60% from the floor in the first half, while Paul George paced the Thunder with 31 points to continue a career season in which he is averaging 26.8 points per game.

The Blazers (29-19 SU, 26-22 ATS) face another tough road task inside the Northwest tonight after rallying past the Jazz on Monday, 109-104. Portland erased a seven-point halftime deficit by outscoring Utah, 39-28 in the third quarter, while beating the Jazz for the first time in three matchups this season. Damian Lillard burned the Jazz for 26 points, while Portland limited Utah to 40% shooting from the floor to pick up their third consecutive victory.

Both teams own winning records playing the second of a back-to-back this season as the Blazers are 4-3 SU/ATS, while the Thunder have compiled a 4-2 SU and 3-3 ATS mark in this situation. Portland swept the four-game season series from Oklahoma City in 2017-18, but the Thunder captured the first meeting this season at the Moda Center, 111-109 as a one-point underdog earlier this month. George and Russell Westbrook combined to score 68 points to end an eight-game skid in Portland dating back to October 2014.

Oklahoma City begins a three-game homestand, which includes visits from New Orleans on Thursday and Milwaukee on Sunday. The Thunder are riding a 6-1 OVER run the last seven games overall, while hitting the OVER in six of the past seven home contests. Portland has cashed in nine of the previous 12 games, which includes a 4-1 ATS record in the last five road affairs.

Crown Concerns

The Kings (24-23 SU, 27-20 ATS) continue a six-game homestand tonight after getting routed by the Nets on Monday, 123-94. Sacramento was held to nine points in the fourth quarter, while hitting the UNDER for the eighth consecutive game. The Kings have scored less than 100 points twice on this road trip, as Sacramento has lost six of the past seven games away from Golden 1 Center dating back to mid-December.

Sacramento heads north of the border to Toronto trying to improve on a 3-6 SU and 2-7 ATS record with no rest. The Raptors (35-13 SU, 21-27 ATS) moved to 20-4 at Scotiabank Arena following Saturday’s 119-90 blowout of the Grizzlies as 10 ½-point favorites. Toronto ended a three-game ATS slide by putting together a monstrous third quarter effort as the Raptors outscored the Grizzlies, 45-14 to take a 38-point lead. Danny Green drilled eight three-pointers for Toronto, who played the second straight game without leading scorer Kawhi Leonard, who is expected to return to the lineup tonight.

The Kings beat the Raptors four consecutive times from November 2015 through November 2016, but Toronto has won each of the past three matchups. When these teams hooked up in Sacramento back in November, the Raptors held off the Kings, 114-105 to barely cash as 8 ½-point favorites. The Raptors outrebounded the Kings, 53-31 in the win, while Leonard and Serge Ibaka each posted double-doubles in the victory.

Texas Two-Step?

The Clippers (25-21 SU, 25-21 ATS) suffered through a miserable homestand by going 0-4, which included back-to-back blowout losses to the Jazz and Warriors. Los Angeles snapped a five-game skid in Sunday’s 103-95 triumph at San Antonio as 9 ½-point underdogs, while limiting a team to less than 100 points in a road win for the first time since early November at Orlando. The Clippers beat the Spurs for the first time in three meetings, as L.A. hit the UNDER for the eighth time in the past 10 games.

Los Angeles remains in the Lone Star State tonight for a meeting in Dallas with the struggling Mavericks (20-26 SU, 27-19 ATS). Dallas dropped to a miserable 4-20 on the highway following a pair of losses at Indiana and Milwaukee, but the Mavs managed a cover as 11-point underdogs in Monday’s 116-106 setback to the Bucks. Playing without rest has not been a situation to support Rick Carlisle’s squad, as the Mavericks have compiled an 0-7 SU and 3-4 ATS mark on the second of a back-to-back this season.

The Mavs are significantly better at home than on road, as Dallas owns a solid 16-6 mark at American Airlines Center. However, Dallas has lost three of the past four at home, including recent close defeats to San Antonio and Golden State. The home team has captured the first two meetings this season, while both contests finished OVER the total. The Clippers are seeking their first victory in Dallas since November 2016 as the home squad has won each of the past seven meetings.

Let’s Do It Again

The Timberwolves and Suns are hooking up for the second time in three days as the teams shift out to Phoenix tonight. In Sunday’s contest at the Target Center, Minnesota (22-24 SU, 23-23 ATS) rallied for a 116-114 triumph, but the Wolves failed to cash as 12-point favorites. Derrick Rose came off the bench to pace the Wolves with 31 points, while Karl-Anthony Towns scored 30 points and pulled down 12 rebounds as Minnesota was aided by hitting 32 free throws.

Phoenix (11-37 SU, 22-26 ATS) is back at home after going winless on its four-game road swing, as the Suns are 8-2 ATS in the past 10 away contests. The Suns had dropped six consecutive home games from December 28 through January 6, but Phoenix is fresh off back-to-back home underdog wins over Sacramento and Denver.

These teams are meeting for the third time this season as the Suns took care of the Wolves in the first matchup in the Valley in mid-December, 107-99 as 7 ½-point underdogs. This is the 13th time this season that two teams are playing a home-and-home set, as our industry friends at VSIN note that clubs losing the first matchup are 10-2 SU and 9-3 ATS in the second affair.
