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.

Anthony Davis & Klay Thompson to combine for 45+ points – Boosted from +110 to +130 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop will focus on Anthony Davis and Klay Thompson and we will need them to combine for at least 45+ points tonight. Davis is averaging 23.5 points per game this season, while Thompson is averaging 16.7 points per game. Thompson has clearly taken more of a backseat role to teammate Stephen Curry, so it is hard to see him putting up huge numbers. There is also the fact that Davis is listed as day-to-day, so even if he plays, he could be at less than 100%. For that reason, this prop is likely best to stay away from.

Patty Mills & Duncan Robinson to combine for 7+ made 3-pointers – Boosted from +150 to +170 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs Patty Mills and Duncan Robinson to combine for at least 7 made 3-pointers. Both have been excellent from downtown this season with Robinson averaging 3.0 made 3-pointers per game and Mills averaging 3.2. In 8 of his last 10 games, Mills has at least 3 made 3-pointers, while Robinson has made at least 4 in 2 of his last 4 games. Because the volume is there and because both guys shoot the 3-pointer at a high mark, this prop looks to be worth a small play.

 4+ goals scored in the 1st period of Chicago Blackhawks vs St. Louis Blues – Boosted from +450 to +550 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need there to be at least 4 goals scored in the 1st period between the Chicago Blackhawks and the St. Louis Blues. Both teams actually rank in the bottom half of the league when it comes to scoring goals in the 1st period. For that reason, this prop looks best avoided.

Kentucky, Auburn & Baylor all to win – Boosted from -110 to +110 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we need 3 college basketball teams to win their games: the Kentucky Wildcats against the Florida Gators, the Auburn Tigers against the Texas A&M Aggies and the Baylor Bears against the Texas Longhorns. Our experts like all 3 of these teams to cover and win rather easily, so just taking them all to win looks to be a solid play.

Derrick Lewis vs Tai Tuivasa to end in round 1 – Boosted from -135 to +100 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need a quick finish in the fight between Derrick Lewis and Tai Tuivasa. Both of these guys are heavyweight juggernauts and could easily finish this fight with one punch. Our experts like this fight to end in under 1.5 rounds, so taking boosted odds on it ending in the first 5 minutes looks to be worth a shot.
