BOSTON +1.5
PHILADELPHIA @ BOSTON | 12/12 | 8:00 PM EST

The 76ers have been a vastly different team on the road, where they are just 5-7 as opposed to 13-0 at home. On the other side of this game, the Celtics are 10-0 overall at home and 7-3 there ATS. Although both teams could be without some key players due to injuries, I’ll take Boston and the points.

IOWA @ IOWA ST. | 12/12 | 8:00 PM EST

The Cyclones are coming off a win over a solid Seton hall club despite shooting just 21 percent from 3-point range and committing 17 turnovers. They should be in decent shape if they shore up those issues against in-state rival Iowa. The Hawkeyes have been generally decent ton the road, but still somewhat inconsistent overall. They are on short rest following a home win over Minnesota. The potential pending medical redshirt of senior leader Jordan Bohannon also could be a bit of a distraction. Look for the Cyclones, who were routed last year, to get their payback.

There's enough value now at this key number to back the underdog. The Ravens can clinch the division with a win and improve their chance of the No. 1 seed in the AFC. So they will be motivated to take the game seriously, but might also be cautious with ailing QB Lamar Jackson 9quad0. He could rest early if the game is in hand and an NFL number this big always has backdoor vulnerability.

GRAND CANYON +7
NORTHERN IOWA @ GRAND CANYON | 12/12 | 9:00 PM EST
2:14 PM
Gran Canyon coach Dan Majerle’s limited depth has led to a seven-player rotation. The Antelopes need to find scoring somewhere to hold up against a Northern Iowa team that is 9-1 and just upset Colorado. Look for the edge for the Antelopes to come at the free-throw line and with a turnover advantage.

7-0-1 IN LAST 8 CBB ATS PICKS | +700
CLEVELAND +11.5
CLEVELAND @ SAN ANTONIO | 12/12 | 8:30 PM EST
2:11 PM
Eight straight losses by the Cleveland Cavaliers have put them in another predicament. Trade rumors began to swirl around big man Kevin Love as the Cavaliers look to go in a complete rebuild mode. On Thursday, they’ll face a Spurs team that has recently patched together wins after losing 10 of 11. Still, there are concerns in uncharted territories for this Spurs team.

IOWA ST. -4
IOWA @ IOWA ST. | 12/12 | 8:00 PM EST
2:09 PM
Matchup issues exist tonight for the Cyclones as they take on in-state rival Iowa. Big man Luka Garza will be the main point of emphasis for Iowa State. Garza is averaging over 22 points a game, which included a recent 44-point effort against Michigan. Garza’s play has led to kick out passes for perimeter shots and extended trips to the free-throw line. Look for the Cyclones to feed off their crowd and make enough runs to hold off the Hawkeyes.

AUSTIN PEAY +15.5
AUSTIN PEAY @ W. VIRGINIA | 12/12 | 7:00 PM EST
5:50 PM
Austin Peay G Terry Taylor is averaging over 20 points and almost 10 rebounds per contest. I think he alone can keep the Governors within striking distance. It’s impossible to lay this many points with West Virginia considering how it struggles from beyond the arc (5.4 3-pointers per game, last in the Big 12).

OVER 157.5
IOWA @ IOWA ST. | 12/12 | 8:00 PM EST
5:44 PM
The Hawkeyes and Cyclones both love to go up and down the court. The total for this one is high, but don’t get scared away. Iowa gave up 103 points against Michigan recently and Iowa State averages over 82 per game. This will be a track meet.
