NHL | Golden Knights vs Lightning
Play on: Lightning -168 at BetOnline
The set-up: If you don't mind laying a bit of chalk, I think the home side is definitely worth a second look in this matchup. Tampa won its final three games of its road trip and it's had two whole nights off to prepare for a tough upcoming stretch. After this game the Bolts welcome Pittsburgh, the Islanders and then they're back on the road again with contests at Columbus and Pittsburgh. This is a difficult spot for Vegas, which plays the seventh game of an eight-game road trip tonight, with the finale in Florida on Thursday. After blanking the Predators on the road last time out, Vegas could finally be caught looking ahead to the end of this gruelling journey.
The pick: Additionally note that Vegas is just 2-6 in its last eight road games after blanking its previous opponent and scoring three or more goals in the victory in, while Tampa Bay is 7-3 in its last ten home games after shutting out its previous opponent in a victory. I think the surging home side takes advantage of this situation. Consider Tampa on Tuesday night.
1* FREE PLAY on the Lightning.

The Lightning are 8-0-0 against Pacific Division foes, and I have them winning nearly 70 percent of simulations Tuesday night. This is their first home game in three weeks, and a chance to knock off Vegas at home for the first time. Lay it.
12-5 IN LAST 17 NHL PICKS | +529
13-6 IN LAST 19 LV ML PICKS | +635
3-2 IN LAST 5 TB ML PICKS | +50
UNDER 229
SAN ANTONIO @ L.A. LAKERS | 2/04 | 10:00 PM EST
YESTERDAY 11:08 PM
I'm projecting 222 points for Spurs-Lakers, giving us solid value on the Under. The Under is cashing in about two-thirds of my simulations. With the Spurs on the second night of a back-to-back, look for them to slow it down and help keep this game Under.
2-1 IN LAST 3 NBA O/U PICKS | +90
12-4 IN LAST 16 SA O/U PICKS | +761

MILWAUKEE -6.5
MILWAUKEE @ NEW ORLEANS | 2/04 | 7:30 PM EST
This line is several points too low. Yes, Zion Williamson is a phenomenon, but he's a predictable one. Through six games, 73 percent of his shot attempts have come within three feet of the rim. No team defends the rim better than Milwaukee. Only 21.9 percent of their opponent's shots come from that area. No other team is below 24.4 percent. The Bucks lead the NBA in field-goal percentage allowed at the rim by a full percentage point. Their entire scheme is predicated on the notion that rim shots are more valuable than 3-pointers. Brook Lopez and Giannis Antetokounmpo protect the basket at all costs, and Williamson is going to feel that in this one.
