LET’S GET MONEYYYY!💰

🏀NBA Betting Guide – Feb 26

Jumping on all the NBA games, except I’m skipping the Spurs/Rockets — still waiting for that line to come out.

Boston Celtics (-3.5) vs. Detroit Pistons | O/U 225.5

Boston is in full playoff-tune-up mode—the defense is locked in, the offense is humming, and Tatum is playing at an elite level. The Pistons have been surprisingly competitive, but let’s be real: they don’t have the depth or experience to handle Boston for four quarters. Expect the Celtics to clamp down in the second half and cover the small number.

Pick: Celtics -3.5

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Under 225.5
🎯 Player Prop: Jayson Tatum Over 27.5 Points (-110)

Philadelphia 76ers (+9.5) vs. New York Knicks | O/U 232.0

Philly is in freefall trying to keep that top 6 draft pick, and New York looking solid. The Knicks are top five in net rating over the last month, and Karl-Anthony Towns has settled in beautifully next to Brunson. The Sixers’ defense is non-existent, and without a healthy Embiid, they’ve got no chance. New York rolls in this one — they steamroll shit teams and get steamrolled by good teams :).

Pick: Knicks -9.5

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Over 232.0
🎯 Player Prop: Jalen Brunson Over 8.5 Assists (-105)

Portland Trail Blazers (-6) vs. Washington Wizards | O/U 229.0

This is a battle of not great teams, but Portland at least has a pulse. The Wizards? Things have been ugly but they’ve got some vets hitting the court now with Middleton, Smart, and more. Simons should have all the space he needs to cook from deep.

Pick: Blazers -6

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Under 229.0
🎯 Player Prop: Anfernee Simons Over 3.5 Threes (-120)

Toronto Raptors (+9.5) vs. Indiana Pacers | O/U 237.5

The Pacers are an offensive juggernaut, and Toronto doesn’t have the firepower to keep up. The Raptors have been leaky defensively, and Indiana is the last team you want to see when that’s the case. Expect a high-scoring blowout, with Siakam being the only Raptor doing anything productive on the glass.

Pick: Pacers -9.5

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Over 237.5
🎯 Player Prop: Pascal Siakam Over 7.5 Rebounds (-110)

Atlanta Hawks (+1.5) vs. Miami Heat | O/U 229.5

Atlanta can’t defend, but they can score. Miami controls tempo very well. The Heat’s physicality will grind this game into a slower, methodical battle, which favors Miami. They can’t be getting into a shootout with the Hawks. Trae still gets his dimes, but the Heat pull it out with some defense.

Pick: Heat -1.5

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Under 229.5
🎯 Player Prop: Trae Young Over 9.5 Assists (-110)

Oklahoma City Thunder (-17) vs. Brooklyn Nets | O/U 216.5

OKC has been destroying teams, but 17 points is too many on the road against a fiesty Nets team. Yes, the Nets are still not a great basketball team, but they fight hard, play defense, and can sneak in a backdoor cover. Shai still probably goes nuclear, but this game stays closer than expected.

Pick: Nets +17

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Under 216.5
🎯 Player Prop: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Over 31.5 Points (-105)

Los Angeles Clippers (-8) vs. Chicago Bulls | O/U 229.0

The Clippers are too inconsistent to trust with a big number, and I prefer them as an underdog vs. a big favorite on the road. Chicago has been frisky at home, and Giddey has been an absolute monster lately. The Bulls keep it close, and this one turns into a shootout late.

Pick: Bulls +8

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Over 229.0
🎯 Player Prop: Josh Giddey Over 22.5 Points (-115)

Sacramento Kings (-9) vs. Utah Jazz | O/U 236.5

The Jazz aren’t winning this one, but they cover at home. Utah’s offense still puts up numbers, and the Kings’ defense is leaky enough to let them hang around. I like what Utah has going on inside and the Kings might struggle with those taller guys down low.

Pick: Jazz +9

Over/Under + Player Prop [PREMIUM ONLY]

Total: Over 236.5
🎯 Player Prop: Walker Kessler Over 21.5 PR (-110)

🏀College Basketball Picks – Feb 26, 2025

Michigan State (#8) (-3.5) vs. Maryland (#16) | O/U 150.0

Pick: Michigan State -3.5
Total: Under 150.0

Michigan State's discipline and defensive efficiency should be enough to control this game, even on the road. Maryland has talent, but the Spartans' experience gives them the edge. Expect a slower tempo, keeping this game under the total.

Mississippi (+12.5) vs. Auburn (#1) | O/U 153.5

Pick: Mississippi +12.5
Total: Over 153.5

Auburn is the top team in the nation for a reason, but Mississippi has the offensive firepower to keep it interesting. Both teams push the pace, and this should be a high-scoring affair. Taking the points in what could be a closer-than-expected game.

Remaining College Basketball Top 25 Picks for PREMIUM ONLY

Notre Dame (+14.0) vs. Clemson (#13) | O/U 136.0

Pick: Notre Dame +14.0
Total: Under 136.0

Clemson thrives on defense, but Notre Dame plays a slow, methodical game that can keep them within the number. A defensive battle favors the under in what could be a grind-it-out type of game.

Vanderbilt (+7.5) vs. Texas A&M (#12) | O/U 146.0

Pick: Texas A&M -7.5
Total: Over 146.0

Texas A&M is rolling and should take care of business at home. Vanderbilt’s defense is vulnerable against efficient offenses like the Aggies, making this a good spot for A&M to cover. With both teams able to score, expect this game to go over.

Rice (+13.5) vs. Memphis (#18) | O/U 149.0

Pick: Memphis -13.5
Total: Under 149.0

Memphis’ athleticism and defense should be too much for Rice, and this game could be out of reach early. The Tigers control the tempo and keep this one from turning into a track meet, pushing the under.

Kentucky (#17) (-3.0) vs. Oklahoma | O/U 162.5

Pick: Kentucky -3.0
Total: Over 162.5

This is shaping up to be a fast-paced, high-scoring matchup. Kentucky has the offensive firepower to win on the road and should be able to control the pace. The over looks strong in what should be an up-tempo shootout.

St. John's (#7) (-8.0) vs. Butler | O/U 150.0

Pick: St. John's -8.0
Total: Under 150.0

St. John’s pressure defense will be the difference here, forcing Butler into mistakes and extending the lead. The Red Storm will dictate the tempo, but their defense should keep this from becoming a high-scoring game.

Utah (+15.0) vs. Arizona (#22) | O/U 152.5

Pick: Utah +15.0
Total: Over 152.5

Arizona’s offense is elite, but Utah has enough to make this one interesting. The Utes should be able to stay within the number, and the pace of play makes the over a solid look in what should be an entertaining matchup.

BYU (#25) (-5.0) vs. Arizona State | O/U 149.0

Pick: BYU -5.0
Total: Under 149.0

BYU’s discipline and defensive intensity should be the difference here. Arizona State’s offense has been inconsistent, and BYU has the edge in execution. Look for a lower-scoring game with BYU covering.

🏆 Premier League Picks – Feb 26, 2025

⚽ Brentford (-0.5) vs. Everton | O/U 2.75

Pick: Brentford -0.5
Total: Under 2.75

Brentford comes into this one on a high after a dominant away win. Back at home, they should handle an Everton side that has been gritty but lacks firepower. Expect a tight, defensive battle, with Brentford edging it.

⚽ Manchester United (-1.0) vs. Ipswich Town | O/U 2.75

Pick: Manchester United -1.0
Total: Under 2.75

United’s been shaky at Old Trafford, but Ipswich has been even worse on the road. This isn’t going to be pretty, but United should grind out a win. The under looks strong with both teams struggling to find consistency in attack.

Josh’s Best Picks 👇

1. Man Utd to Win & Both Teams to Score (BTTS)

  • Man Utd concedes 1.72 goals per game at home.

  • Ipswich has scored in their last 3 away PL games (including vs. Liverpool) but hasn’t won away in 4 games.

  • United, coming off a win at Everton, should have confidence going into this match.

🔹 Confidence: 8/10

2. Over 2.5 Cards & Under 3.5 Goals

  • Ipswich games average 3 goals; United games average 2.5.

  • Both teams struggle offensively, relying on opponent errors for goals.

  • Ipswich averages 2.5 cards per game, United 2.3, with both teams committing over 11 fouls per match.

🔹 Confidence: 7/10

3. Alejandro Garnacho – 4+ Shots, 2+ Shots on Target

  • Garnacho is United’s best attacking option with Hojlund & Zirkzee in poor form.

  • He met this line vs. Spurs and will likely take advantage of Ipswich’s weak defense (3rd most goals conceded, allowing 5.7 shots on target per game).

  • Leads United in shots on target per 90 (1.5) and will get more chances due to injuries.

🔹 Confidence: 7/10

4. Omari Hutchinson – 2+ Shots

  • Great value bet. United's defense is vulnerable, conceding 11.3 shots per game.

  • Hutchinson averages 1.4 shots per game and had 4 shots vs. Spurs in his last match.

🔹 Confidence: 7/10

Final Predictions:

  • Moneyline (ML): Man Utd

  • Score Prediction: 2-1

  • Parlay Option:
    Garnacho 3+ shots
    Hutchinson 1+ shot
    Over 2.5 cards
    Man Utd to win

⚠️ Betting Note: Be cautious when combining BTTS + United Win + Under 3.5 goals, as you’re essentially betting on a 2-1 scoreline. Consider under 4.5 goals instead.

⚽ Liverpool (-1.0) vs. Newcastle United | O/U 3.25

Pick: Liverpool -1.0
Total: Over 3.25

Liverpool just put City in their place and now return to Anfield, where they’ve been dominant. Newcastle’s defense is in shambles, and the Reds should take full advantage. Expect goals and a comfortable Liverpool win.

Josh’s Best Picks👇

1. Liverpool to Win & Salah to Have a Shot on Target

  • Salah has been outstanding this season and is expected to score again.

  • Liverpool has won 9 of 12 home games this season.
