NCAA-F | North Carolina vs Temple
Play on: North Carolina -4½ -109 at Pinnacle
UNC -4.5
UNC is 6-6 under Mack Brown and will look to finish with a winning 7-6 record. They played well in their finale winning at NC State by 3 touchdowns. Mack Brown is 13-8 in bowls. UNC is led by freshman QB Sam Howell who has played well.
I think we see UNC win by 7 to 10 points on Friday. Take the Tar Heels.

NBA | Cavs vs Celtics
Play on: Celtics -13 -104 at Pinnacle
FRIDAY Featured Free play
The NBA Comp play is on Boston at 4:05 eastern. The Celtics have won and covered the last vs the Cavs with every win by at least 20 points. Today should be no different as Teams like the Cavs that are road dogs with 3 or more days rest and off a home dog win where they scored 120 or more points fail to cover 86% since 1995. The Cavs are 0-3 ats as a road dog of more than 12 and have failed to cover 6 of 8 with same season revenge as well as 6 of 8 vs Atlantic Division opponents. The Celtics are 3-0 ats off a 10+ point road win and have covered 6 of 7 off a division game and are 6-2 ats as a home favorite from -12 to 18. Look for the Celtics to cover. For the NBA Free pick. Play on Boston. RV- GC Sports.

NCAA-F | USC vs Iowa
Play on: OVER 52 -109
Friday CFB Free play. My selection is on the 'over' between USC and Iowa at 8 pm et on Friday.
I like the way this one sets up as a higher-scoring game than expected in San Diego. USC closed out the season on an absolute tear offensively and I look for it to pick up right where it left off against Iowa on Friday. The Hawkeyes relied heavily on their defense over the course of the season but I'm not convinced they'll bring the same level of intensity to the table following a nearly month-long layoff. The fact that Iowa posted a lopsided 3-8-1 o/u record this season weighs heavily on this total, giving us a very reasonable number to work with. Note that USC allows just shy of five yards per rush away from home this season. Take the over (8*).

St. Louis are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games against Winnipeg. The Blues have been strong on the road going 12-4. The Jets took another hit in injuries with Laine on the sidelines. This Blues team is has great talent.

NCAA-F | Washington State vs Air Force
Play on: OVER 67 -110
235 Washington State at Air Force
Two teams facing opponents who are one dimensional offenses it rarely sees. Washington State threw the ball 192 times in its last three games. Air Force rarely passes the ball so it's something the team cannot duplicate in practice.
Air Force wants to run the football with 151 rushing attempts its last three contests. Washington State allows 4.9 yards per carry on the season and only saw 73 total rushing attempts its last three games.
This total seems a bit low considering each team can do what it wants offensively.
PLAY OVER

NBA | Suns vs Warriors
Play on: Suns -3 -105 at Pinnacle
Jack’s Free Pick Friday: Phoenix Suns -3
This is a huge letdown spot for the Golden State Warriors. They are coming off three straight wins, including their shocking upset of Houston as 11-point dogs on Christmas Day. Now the Warriors will be playing their 3rd game in 5 days and won’t be nearly as motivated to face Phoenix as they were Houston.
The Suns are in a great spot. They come in on three days’ rest, so they will be fresh and ready to go. And the Suns will be highly motivated for a win off seven straight losses against a brutal schedule. Phoenix is finally almost fully healthy and should be a good bet moving forward.
Plays on road teams where the line is +3 to -3 (Phoenix) - after five or more consecutive losses, a bad team (25% to 40%) playing a team with a losing record are 50-22 (69.4%) ATS since 1996. The Suns have won their last two meetings with the Warriors outright as underdogs, and both were on the road.
Golden State is 5-17 ATS in its last 22 home games vs. division opponents. The Suns are 29-14-1 ATS in their last 44 games as road favorites. The Warriors are 7-18-1 ATS in their last 26 games following a win. Golden State is 16-34-2 ATS in its last 52 games off an ATS win. Bet the Suns Friday.
