WINNIPEG @ TORONTO | 01/18 | 7:00 PM EST
TORONTO -160
ANALYSIS: While Leafs No. 1 goaltender Frederik Andersen hasn't been overly sharp in his two starts thus far, he has never lost in regulation to the Jets in 12 outings. Winnipeg also will be missing its most talented player Monday in winger Patrik Laine, who had two goals and an assist in the team's lone game so far. He's dealing with an upper-body injury. The Jets have won just three of their past 11 as road dogs and two of the past seven overall in this series.

1:11 PM

CAROLINA @ NASHVILLE | 01/18 | 8:00 PM EST
NASHVILLE +100
ANALYSIS: I'm a bit surprised the Preds are home dogs here (Carolina has dominated the series of late to be fair) as they are 2-0, beating a good Columbus team in both games, while the Canes are 1-1 and both were against the lowly Red Wings. Carolina remains without center Jordan Staal as he's in the COVID protocols. For Nashville, 15 players already have at least one point. The Predators are 5-2 in their last seven games as home underdogs.

MONTREAL @ EDMONTON | 01/18 | 9:00 PM EST
EDMONTON -105
ANALYSIS: Twice already this early season, we have cashed in taking a home team that lost the first of a two-game baseball-type series to win the second matchup. That's the position the Oilers are in here after losing 5-1 at home to Montreal on Saturday. On opening night, the Oilers were 5-3 home losers to the Canucks and then won the next game in Edmonton against Vancouver 5-2 (which we picked). I expect much of the same here. Oilers winger Zack Kassian should play after missing Saturday because his wife gave birth earlier in the day.

DALLAS @ TORONTO | 01/18 | 7:30 PM EST
DALLAS +5
ANALYSIS: Dallas is coming off a 117-101 loss to Chicago in which Luka Doncic had 15 assists, 16 rebounds and 36 points but was only 13-for-30 from the field. Tim Hardaway Jr. was out with a bad groin. The Mavericks are 7-0 ATS (+8.71 ppg) on the road after a game as home favorites in which Doncic dished out at least 10 assists, 7-0 ATS (+5.07 ppg) on the road following a home contest in which he was their high scorer but had a negative plus/minus and 9-0 ATS (10.11 ppg) on the road after a game in which Hardaway did not play. Grab the points.

PHOENIX @ MEMPHIS | 01/18 | 5:00 PM EST
PHOENIX -3.5
ANALYSIS: Memphis owns a winning streak against Phoenix, but this is their first meeting this season. The Grizzlies have not done well in this spot, as they are 0-9 ATS (-8.61 ppg) with rest after playing as home favorites when they've won two straight versus their opponent. The Suns are coming off a loss as road favorites in which Devin Booker attempted 21 shots and had a plus/minus of minus-15 points. Phoenix is 8-0 ATS (+13.19 ppg) in Booker’s professional career after a loss as a road favorite in which he played 15-plus minutes and had a negative plus/minus. Lay the short number.

+280 5-2 IN LAST 7 NBA ATS PICKS
10:09 AM

SAN ANTONIO @ PORTLAND | 01/18 | 3:00 PM EST
UNDER 224.5
ANALYSIS: Portland is coming off a 112-106 win over Atlanta in which Damian Lillard scored 36 points while shooting 43.5 percent from the field. We mention this because the Trail Blazers are 0-6 OU (-21.83 ppg) after a game as favorites in which Lillard shot under 45 percent as their high scorer. Each of the six games stayed Under by more than 12 points, including two this season. As a team, the Spurs are 0-14 OU (-14.39 ppg) as underdogs after a game as home favorites in which they scored more than 50 points in the paint. We are on the Under.

+180 4-2 IN LAST 6 NBA PICKS
10:05 AM

MINNESOTA @ ATLANTA | 01/18 | 2:30 PM EST
OVER 227.5
ANALYSIS: The Hawks are coming off a 112-106 loss to Portland in which Trae Young was 7-for-23 from the field, including 1-for-9 from long distance. This is a big Over spot, as Atlanta is 7-0 OU at home after Young had a negative plus/minus, flying over by an average of 25 ppg. Minnesota is 10-0 OU (9.40 ppg) on the road after a loss as a favorite in which Karl-Anthony Towns had a positive plus/minus, 10-0 OU (14.70 ppg) following a home game in which it had three or fewer double-digit scorers, and 8-0 OU (+20.88 ppg) on the road after a loss in which it was outscored in the paint by double digits. We make the play the Over.

10:00 AM

DETROIT @ MIAMI | 01/18 | 3:00 PM EST
OVER 219
ANALYSIS: The Heat are 6-0 OU (+21.33 ppg) when Bam Adebayo has more free-throw attempts than shot attempts, 9-0 OU (+11.78 ppg) after a game as favorites in which Kelly Olynyk shot worse than 33 percent from the field and 6-0 OU (+17.00 ppg) at home after a game as home favorites in which Duncan Robinson had a negative plus/minus. With Detroit 9-0 OU (+9.06 ppg) following a win as an underdog against a team that is averaging less than four blocks per game, we make the play the Over.

MINNESOTA @ ATLANTA | 01/18 | 2:30 PM EST
ATLANTA -8
ANALYSIS: Yes, Trae Young is in a bit of a shooting slump, but this is no reason to play against Atlanta. The Hawks are 10-0 ATS when he shot worse than 35 percent in each of their last two games and had fewer than 12 assists in his previous contest. The Timberwolves are coming off a 118-107 home loss to Memphis as small favorites in which Malik Beasley led them with 28 points. In Karl-Anthony Towns’ career with Minnesota, it is 0-7 ATS on the road after a loss as a home favorite in which he was not the high scorer. We are laying the points.

+280 5-2 IN LAST 7 NBA ATS PICKS
9:53 AM

ORLANDO 42 @ NEW YORK 51 | 01/18 | 12:00 PM EST
ORLANDO -2
ANALYSIS: Orlando played Brooklyn tough on Saturday, recording 28 assists and only 12 turnovers while six players reached double digits in points. The Magic are 12-0 ATS (+13.21 ppg) on the road when the line is within four of pick'em after a game in which their assist-to-turnover ratio was better than 1.88. The Knicks are 0-11 ATS (-13.95 ppg) at home when the line is within three of pick'em after playing as road underdogs against an opponent with an assist-to-turnover ratio greater than 1.40. The Magic have the line value.

NEW MEXICO @ UNLV | 01/18 | 9:30 PM EST
UNLV -12
ANALYSIS: These teams played on this same floor two days ago, UNLV winning by 23. The spread has risen only 1.5 points from that matchup. New Mexico has dropped seven of its last eight, with those losses coming by an average of 23.7 points. Look for the Rebels to win their sixth straight over the Lobos -- and cover.

11:18 AM

PHOENIX @ MEMPHIS | 01/18 | 5:00 PM EST
MEMPHIS +5
ANALYSIS: Memphis won't have starting center Jonas Valanciunas, but the Grizzlies have Ja Morant back. They also have won four straight, and have gone six games without losing by more than four points. Phoenix hasn't played in a week due to COVID-19 issues. Look for Memphis to improve to 6-2 ATS in the last eight home meetings.

ORLANDO 49 @ NEW YORK 58 | 01/18 | 12:00 PM EST
ORLANDO -2
ANALYSIS: This is a quick turnaround for the Knicks after their stunning blowout of Boston on Sunday. Orlando has lost five in a row but played well in a seven-point loss at Brooklyn on Saturday. The Magic are 14-6-1 ATS in their last 21 road games, not to mention 5-1 ATS in their last six as favorites. Lay the small number.

SAN ANTONIO @ PORTLAND | 01/18 | 3:00 PM EST
SAN ANTONIO -1
ANALYSIS: The public likes the Trail Blazers at home, but the early line moved two points toward San Antonio. The Spurs have been a great bet on the road, while Portland has been a bad home bet. Back the healthier Spurs to improve to 6-2 on the road this season.

ST. JOHN'S @ CONNECTICUT | 01/18 | 2:30 PM EST
CONNECTICUT -9.5
ANALYSIS: UConn misses leading scorer James Bouknight, but the rest of the Huskies should have success against a St. John's team allowing opponents to shoot 48 percent from the field. UConn holds opponents to 40.7 percent shooting overall, 28.7 percent from deep. The Red Storm have not covered any of their last five road games. Look for UConn to cover its seventh straight overall.
