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

Chicago Bulls to score 28+ in the 1st and 4th quarters – Boosted from +250 to +300 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need the Chicago Bulls to score at least 28 points in both the 1st and 4th quarters against the Milwaukee Bucks tonight. The Bulls are averaging 27.4 points in the 1st quarter and 28.6 points in the 4th. Our experts like the Bucks to cover tonight, but the Bulls should give them a fight. A strong start and finish looks likely for the Bulls, so backing this prop is worth a small play.

New York Knicks to win by 10+ points – Boosted from +290 to +320 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs the New York Knicks to beat the Atlanta Hawks by at least 10 points tonight. The Knicks have had the Hawks’ number this season, winning the first 3 matchups. and will be looking for a season sweep tonight. New York still trails Atlanta by 5 games for the final playoff spot, making this a must-win game as the playoffs loom closer. Despite their success against the Hawks, Trae Young is averaging 27.3 points and 9.5 assists in his career at Madison Square Garden. Our experts like Young to carry this Atlanta team to a win tonight, so avoiding this prop looks to be the best option.

8+ total goals scored in Tampa Bay Lightning vs Carolina Hurricanes – Boosted from +350 to +450 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs there to be at least 8 goals scored in the game between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Carolina Hurricanes. These are easily two of the best teams in the NHL, but we may see a more defensive game given how close these teams are to each other in the standings. The Lightning are 8th in the NHL in scoring, averaging 3.33 goals per game. The Hurricanes are 12th in the same category, averaging 3.26 goals per game.

Defensively, Carolina is the best in the league, allowing 2.76 goals per game, while Tampa Bay ranks 9th, allowing an average of 2.79 goals per game. Our experts like the under because of the strong defenses both teams have, making this a prop to avoid.

New York Rangers, Carolina Hurricanes & Washington Capitals all to win  – Boosted from +400 to +500 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we will need 3 NHL teams to win their games tonight: the New York Rangers against the New Jersey Devils, the Carolina Hurricanes against the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Washington Capitals against the St. Louis Blues. While a New York win over New Jersey is likely, our experts would lean to a Carolina win, and would also fade Washington to back St. Louis. Because of the lack of confidence in the Capitals, this parlay should likely be avoided.
