We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which today are from DraftKings Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook. We’ll discuss whether or not they are worth playing.

Adam Fox and Chris Kreider to to combine for 3+ points – Boosted from +340 to +380 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs Adam Fox and Chris Kreider to combine for 3+ points. Both play for the New York Rangers and both are having solid seasons. Fox has recorded 42 points this year, while Kreider has 36. Fox is coming off a 3-point game by himself, so backing this prop looks to be worth a play.

 Ja Morant & Nikola Jokic to combine for 70+ points/assists – Boosted from +100 to +110 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop will focus on Ja Morant and Nikola Jokic, who will need to combine for 70+ points and assists. Jokic is averaging 25.9 points per game and 7.4 assists per game. Morant is averaging 24.7 points per game and 6.9 assists per game. While that does not quite equal the number we need, there is still reason to believe this prop is worth a bet. Jokic is coming off a 49-point, 10-assist performance, so he clearly has the ability to take over the game on any night. Morant is coming off a 33-point performance with 14 assists, therefore backing this prop looks to be worth a play.

DeMar DeRozan & Nikola Vucevic to record 50+ combined points – Boosted from +150 to +170 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Chicago’s DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic to combine for at least 50 points. DeRozan is averaging 25.7 points per game this season, while Vucevic is averaging 16.3. He has however scored 24 points or more in 2 of his last 3 games, so backing both of these guys to have a big night against the Milwaukee Bucks looks to be worth a play.

Under 2.5 total rounds in both Francis Ngannou vs Ciryl Gane & Michel Pereira vs Andre Fialho – Boosted from +100 to +110 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop focuses on 2 UFC Main Card fights taking place on Saturday. We will need the fight between Michel Pereira and Andre Fialho and the fight between Francis Ngannou and Ciryl Gane to end in under 2.5 rounds. Our experts like the Pereira/Fialho fight to end inside the distance. Ngannou and Gane are both heavy hitters and all it takes is one punch to end it. For that reason, this prop looks to be worth a small play.

Leeds United & Manchester United both to win – Boosted from +280 to +350 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we will need 2 EPL teams to win their games on Saturday morning: Leeds against Newcastle and Manchester United against West Ham. Our experts love Leeds in their game against a Newcastle team that has won just 1 game this entire season. As for Manchester United, they are coming off a nice win over Brentford and should have enough offensive firepower for all 3 points. For that reason, this parlay looks to be worth a play.
