There are plenty of sports going on today with the NBA Playoffs, the Euro 2020 soccer tournament and a big slate of MLB baseball games. There look to be a host of promotions and boosts on offer from sportsbooks. But which ones should you look to capitalize on?

We’ve put together a list of all of the day’s best boosts, which happen to be from DraftKings Sportsbook, and PointsBet Sportsbook today, and whether they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.

Chicago White Sox to win vs. Minnesota Twins (Boosted to -115), PointsBet Sportsbook

We already liked the White Sox to take care of business against Minnesota, so getting them at a discounted price looks to be a solid play. The White Sox will have Lucas Giolito on the mound, who has been much better at home. Chicago’s offense has cooled off, but Kenta Maeda and the Twins should still have issues shutting down this offense. For that reason, this looks to be a solid play. Be sure to check out our full game preview for this matchup.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton to combine for 60+ points (Boosted to +150), PointsBet Sportsbook

Through the first two games of this series, Khris Middleton was not particularly effective, scoring 15 points in both game. He exploded for 38 points in Game 3 thanks to a red hot shooting performance in the fourth quarter. If the Bucks are going to take a commanding lead in this series, we should expect Middleton to have a similar performance. Giannis Antetokounmpo has been a monster in this and despite the fact that his free throw shooting is still questionable, he is likely going to get his points. We are expecting a convincing Bucks win, making this odds boost look like a solid play. Be sure to check out our full game preview for this matchup.

Hawks and Bucks to combine for 23+ total threes (Boosted to +100), DraftKings Sportsbook

There have been plenty threes in this series from Trae Young draining them from way downtown to Khris Middleton getting red hot in the fourth quarter of Game 3. The same can be expected tonight. Especially if Young is not 100 percent, the Hawks may have to rely on the three-point shot more. They have plenty of guys who can make them too, so we should expect a decent shooting night from the Hawks as a team. The Bucks have been just as effective for the most part regardless of who takes the shot. These teams have combined for 23+ threes in two of the three games, making this a solid play. Be sure to check out our full game preview for this matchup.

Over 4.5 runs in 1st 5 innings of both Angels vs. Yankees and Royals vs. Red Sox (Boosted to +110), DraftKings Sportsbook

There is reason to be optimistic about this odds boost because of the offense that we expect to be on display for both games. The Angels might not be a great team, but they have several solid bats in the lineup and can take advantage of a shaky Yankees’ bullpen. Same goes with the Yankees, who can trouble Andrew Heaney and the Angels.

It is a similar story for Boston and Kansas City as both have the ability to hit these starting pitchers hard. We already like both games mentioned to go over the total, so also backing them to go over 4.5 runs by the midway point of the game is worth a play. Be sure to check out our picks on the side and total for all of tonight’s MLB matchups.
