The NBA and NHL playoffs are in full swing, plus we have tons of Major League Baseball action in the afternoon and night. It’s another big day in the world of sports, so let’s not waste any time and get right to making your next bet better. Here is our latest installment of Wise n’ Shine!
Heat, Suns take 3-2 leads
Miami and Phoenix were too hot to handle, as they won crucial Game 5s in their respective series against Philadelphia and Dallas. We cashed a +440 play on Joel Embiid to be the first-basket scorer in the Sixers-Heat contest.
Huge day of NHL handicapping
The Pickswise NHL experts went a perfect 4-0 ML/PL, including a +180 upset for Los Angeles – which went into Edmonton and beat the Oilers 5-4 in overtime. We also had a 3-star best bet of Carolina on the 3-way money line at +125 and the ‘Canes came through with a 5-1 beatdown of Boston.
All rise
On the baseball diamond, the Yankees (21-8) stayed hot with a 6-5 victory over the Blue Jays. Aaron Judge hit a 3-run, walk-off homer in the bottom of the ninth inning. It was his first-ever walk-off blast in what was exactly his 600th career game.
Warriors want to finish off Grizzlies
Golden State can become the first NBA team to book its spot in the Conference Finals when it visits Memphis. The Warriors lead that series 3-1, while in the Eastern Conference the Celtics and Bucks are tied 2-2 going back to Boston for Game 5. Head over to our NBA picks page to see all of our previews and predictions.
Down to three games in the NHL
With Colorado having already swept Nashville, there are only three games instead of four on today’s schedule. Pittsburgh is ahead of the Rangers 3-1 and can clinch that series on Wednesday, while Florida-Washington and Calgary-Dallas are both 2-2. You can find all of our hockey coverage on the NHL page.

A trio of 12:35 pm ET games get the Wednesday schedule started before Kansas City and Texas wrap things up with an 8:05 pm ET first pitch.
