NBA:

Cavaliers @ Thunder (7:30pm EST)

We got a great matchup here for you guys in this one!! In Oklahoma City we got 2 teams ready to battle it out for the best team in the NBA. The Cavs have really been impressive this year and are poised to make a run at the Finals this year. The Thunder on the other hand are a very young team with a lot to prove! They are the best team in the NBA at home when healthy. We expect this to continue today! They have the best player in the game on their team in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. We expect them to come into this one with a chip on their shoulder after losing the last matchup about a week ago.

Pick: Thunder ML

CBB:

Maryland @ Northwestern (9:00pm EST)

Our second game of the night we got a Big Ten matchup between two formidable teams!! Northwestern has fallen into a slump in their last couple games. They have lost 3 in a row and now they host a thriving Maryland team that has played great basketball as of late. The determining factor in this one will be Maryland’s defense. They have the best defense in the Big Ten so far this season only allowing 63 PPG. This is an impressive feat and we look for it to continue today against an inferior Northwestern team. Give us Maryland on the MoneyLine.

Pick: Maryland ML
