Good morning Pickswise Nation and welcome to another wonderful Tuesday of sports. There’s a huge Game 5 in the NHL Stanley Cup Final on the horizon, but first, we have a busy MLB slate to enjoy, so let’s get straight to making your next bet better.
About Last Night
Nuggets clinch NBA title
After 47 years, the Denver Nuggets finally claimed their first NBA title on Monday night with a 94-89 victory over the Miami Heat. It was a sloppy game throughout, but ultimately Nikola Jokic’s 28 points and 16 rebounds on 12-of-16 shooting was just too much for Miami. The Nuggets enter the 2023-24 season as the favorites at most sportsbooks. Check out our analysis of the NBA 2023-24 season odds.

Best Bet of the Day
NHL: Las Vegas Golden Knights ML (-175) over Florida Panthers
8:00 pm ET, TNT
The Panthers are down to their last life as they’re down 3-1 in the Stanley Cup Finals following a 3-2 defeat to the Golden Knights on home ice this past Saturday night. The Panthers will have to play a perfect game tonight if they want to extend this series. Bobrovsky will need to put the team on his back for the Panthers to have a chance. Look for Matthew Tkachuk to shake things up tonight and try to get under the Golden Knights player’s skin. A lot of things must go right for the Panthers tonight if they want to keep their season alive. Read our full Panthers vs Golden Knights predictions
