The Sacramento Kings have won 3 of their last 4 home games and will be laying 3 tonight when they host the Miami Heat at Golden 1 Center. The Kings are not the pathetic squad they used to be, with a record of 28-26, and they have a legitimate shot of making the playoffs after a 12-year absence. Sacramento sits at 17-11 at home, averaging 114 points per game and allowing an average of 113.6. Miami is a respectable 14-11 on the road, where they are averaging 106.2 points per game and allowing an average of 105.4, but they have struggled against the Kings recently. The Heat have lost their last 3 meetings against the Kings, including a home loss back in October, 123-113. Sacramento has been a covering machine at home, going 8-1 ATS in their last 9, but this should be a tight game so with a money line of only -150, why sweat the points?
TONIGHT’S PICK: SACRAMENTO KINGS M/L

Thursday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Charlotte 49ers will be at Murphy Athletic Center tonight for a road match-up with the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders. The 49ers have lost 5 straight and 8 of their last 10. Charlotte has just 1 road win with 6 losses, where they are averaging 57.6 points per game and allowing an average of 71.7. The Blue Raiders have won 2 in a row and are a respectable 6-4 at home, where they are averaging 69.9 points per game and allowing an average of 73.8. Mid Tenn has won the last 7 meetings with Charlotte and should notch another tonight.
TONIGHT’S PICK: MIDDLE TENNESSEE BLUE RAIDERS M/L
Wednesday NHL Pick
The New York Rangers will be a home dog tonight when they host another Original Six team, the Boston Bruins. The Rangers are a force when they take the ice at MSG, with a record of 13-8-6, and they have won 8 of the last 10 match-ups with Boston. The Bruins will be playing back-to-back games after knocking off the Islanders last night so fatigue could be an issue for them. I like the Rangers in this situation.
TONIGHT’S PICK: NEW YORK RANGERS
Tuesday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Syracuse Orange will be hosting #22 ranked Florida State Seminoles tonight at the Dome. The Q are 11-3 on their home court and will win this game tonight because of their defense. The Orange are allowing just 58.3 points per game at home and putting up an average of 70.4. The Seminoles are just 2-3 on the road, where they are averaging 72.4 points per game and allowing an average of 70.8. Florida State might have the oranges but Syracuse has the juice.
TONIGHT’S PICK: SYRACUSE ORANGE M/L
Monday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Canisius Golden Griffins will have a little swagger in their step tonight when they host the boys from Pougkeepsie, the Marist Red Foxes. The Griffins are coming off a 75-70 win over the Quinnipiac Bobcats and winning can be contagious. Marist is just 3-9 on the road, where they are averaging 66.3 points per game and, on the flip side, Canisius is averaging 74.2 on their home court.
TONIGHT’S PICK: CANISIUS GOLDEN GRIFFINS M/L
Sunday NBA Pick
If the New York Knicks are going to win another game it might today because they will be hosting the Memphis Grizzlies in a matinée at MSG. The Knickerbockers have now lost 12 in a row but the Griz are also pathetic, losing 3 straight and are just 8-10 on the road. Believe it or not, New York will have the edge in this match-up in points per game, free throw percentage, rebounding, turnovers and bench. Run with the Knicks.
TODAY’S PICK: NEW YORK KNICKS M/L
Saturday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Nevada Wolf Pack, will put their perfect 10-0 home record on the line today when they host the Boise State Broncos in a matinée at Lawlor Events Center.

The Broncos sit at 3-5 on the road, averaging 68.8 points per game and allowing an average of 68.6. Lay the points and take the Pack.
TODAY’S PICK: NEVADA WOLF PACK -14.5
