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.

Over 152.5 total points scored in Western Kentucky vs Kentucky – Boosted from +230 to +275 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Kentucky and Western Kentucky to combine for over 152.5 points. Kentucky is averaging 82.1 points per game this season, while Western Kentucky is not too far behind at 78.6 points per game. Both sides have plenty of shooters, so we should probably expect a back-and-forth game. With a total this high, be careful because one drought could ruin the over, however this prop still looks to be worth a small play.

Arizona to win by 5+ points – Boosted from +175 to +200 with DraftKings Sportsbook

Perhaps the biggest game of the night will see the 6th-ranked Arizona Wildcats take on the 19th-ranked Tennessee Volunteers. The Vols have been known to struggle offensively sometimes while the Wildcats have the No. 1 scoring offense in the country. Arizona is a small underdog, and we like them to cover, however an outright win with the way they can score is more than worth a play.

Cavaliers to win vs Celtics – Boosted from +195 to +220 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will just need the Cleveland Cavaliers to beat the Boston Celtics. However, the Cavs are one of the teams that have been affected by some COVID absences. They may be playing well, but our experts still like the Celtics to win with ease tonight. For that reason, this prop is likely best avoided.

Nikola Jokic to record 55+ combined points/rebounds/assists – Boosted from +175 to +200 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop needs Nikola Jokic to have another huge game. We will need him to record 55+ points/rebounds/assists. Jokic is averaging 26.3 points per game, 13.5 rebounds per game and 7.5 assists per game. Even though those averages do not equal the number we need, this still could be a prop worth playing. Especially because the Nuggets will be playing the Thunder tonight and they have proved to be an awful team this season.

Mizzou to lead at halftime & Army to win the game – Boosted from +650 to +800 with DraftKings Sportsbook

The lone college football bowl game sees the Missouri Tigers take on the Army Black Knights. This prop needs Missouri to be leading at halftime and Army to win the game. However, I do not love this because the Black Knights’ rushing offense looks to be far too strong. They are likely going to control this game on the ground for majority if not the entire game, so avoiding this prop looks to be the best option.

Auburn, Tennessee & Washington State all to win – Boosted from +200 to +260 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we will need 3 college basketball teams to win their games: the Auburn Tigers against the Murray State Racers, Tennessee Volunteers against the Arizona Wildcats and the Washington State Cougars against the Boise State Broncos. While we like Boise State to cover, a Washington State win still seems to be a likely result. As for Tennessee, we like Arizona to cover a very small number and are not very confident in a Tennessee win. This is a game Auburn should win, but Murray State has already pulled off some upsets, therefore just avoiding this parlay looks to be the best option.
