Brandon Lee
Tuesday's NBA Free Pick
PLAY ON: Spurs -1
William Burns
(#506) San Antonio Spurs | ATS | .
If you pay attention to my articles, you would have seen that I'm expecting the Oklahoma City Thunder to respond after falling short last year. I expect OKC to win the championship this season. That being said, this is a very tough opening game for the Thunder, playing the opponent that they struggled against a year ago, & on the road.
San Antonio is only getting better as well, with the young talent evolving into stars in this league. This should be an ultimate scrap in the opening game. However, I'm going with the home court advantage considering SAS has won four of the past five meetings here in Texas. Give me the Spurs here.
Burns' Prediction: 116-107 Spurs.

FREE PLAY — SOUTH ALABAMA–MARSHALL UNDER 64.5 — 7:30 ET
One of Tuesday's strongest historical totals systems points toward a lower-scoring game in Huntington, West Virginia.
The system targets teams coming off exceptionally high-scoring performances, identifying situations in which recent offensive production can inflate expectations for the following game.
Historically, qualifying games have finished UNDER at an 86-40-1 rate (68.3% of decisions), producing +42.0 units and a 30.3% ROI when betting the UNDER.
South Alabama enters after consecutive offensive explosions, scoring 52 points against Louisiana-Monroe and 56 against Arkansas State.
The Jaguars possess an outstanding offensive line and three productive running backs in Keenan Phillips, PJ Martin and Trae'von Dunbar. Their ability to control the line of scrimmage could actually benefit an UNDER wager by sustaining long possessions and reducing the number of opportunities for both offenses.
Marshall's offense has also demonstrated a substantial difference between yardage and scoring production. The Thundering Herd have averaged 406.5 yards but only 22 points per game, suggesting problems converting offensive movement into touchdowns.
The quarterback situation adds another consideration. Zion Turner completed 18 of 27 passes for 219 yards and two touchdowns following Marshall's six-turnover loss to Coastal Carolina, but the broader offensive evaluation remains unsettled.
An independent scoring projection calls for approximately 60 combined points, compared with the market total of 64.5. That provides additional support for the UNDER.
The market has moved upward from earlier totals around 62.5, creating a better number for UNDER bettors. The strongest historical system and the independent scoring projection both favor the lower-scoring outcome, despite the explosive potential of South Alabama's offense.
Play to: UNDER 64.5.

Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take #387 Michigan State Spartans over UCLA Bruins (3:30 p.m., Saturday, October 24, CBS)
UCLA has been a pleasant surprise in the Big Ten this season, standing as the only unbeaten team in either the Big Ten or SEC. Still, this is a hefty number to lay with a backup quarterback. The Bruins were one-dimensional against Wisconsin, and I expect Michigan State to make running the football difficult again.
The Spartans are rebuilding under a new coach, but they’ve shown they can compete, taking Illinois and Northwestern down to the wire. I expect another competitive effort here, with Michigan State keeping the final margin within 7–10 points.

Ray Monohan
OVER 53.5
Detroit's offense is averaging nearly 33 PPG and Goff has been surgical with 12 TD passes and zero turnovers. Now he gets an extra week to prepare for a Green Bay defense whose recent improvement came against backup QBs and a struggling Dallas attack. That's a different assignment than dealing with this Lions offense. The problem for Detroit? Its defense is surrendering more than 400 yards per game, giving Love and Green Bay plenty of opportunities to answer. With Jacobs expected back, the Packers have another weapon to keep the scoreboard moving. This one has shootout written all over it. Locking this in early. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be smaller bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Today's FREE selection is a strong lean on the OVER 53.5. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

My selection is on Dallas over Boston at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday.
The Bruins are off to a 3-0 start on their current road trip after cruising to a 4-1 win over the Kings on Saturday. Now they come off a two-day layoff and I look for their winning streak to be stopped by the Stars. Dallas has gotten off to a fairly slow start at 4-3-1. It has reeled off consecutive victories, however, including a dominant 4-0 win in Chicago on Saurday. Of note, the home team has taken three straight meetings in this series including Dallas home victories by scores of 7-2 and 6-2. While Boston will have one eye on an off day on Wednesday as it returns home to host Nashville on Thursday, Dallas will be opening a six-game homestand. Take Dallas (8*).
AAA Sports
Our selection is on the Detroit Red Wings/Seattle Kraken game to finish OVER the total on Tuesday at 9:47pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:
Detroit is scoring lots right now, putting up 10 goals over it's L3 games.
The Red Wings are going to need to score quite a bit on Tuesday to have a chance as well.
These teams played just under two weeks ago and the game finished with a 6-3 final score.
Seattle has seen six of it's L7 games feature seven or more goals.
The play is on the OVER.

Mike Lundin
Jets vs Blues NHL Free Pick
The Angle(s): The Winnipeg Jets roll into St. Louis with the Connor Hellebuyck saga hanging over the locker room, and his suspension ending Friday only adds to the noise. Stuart Skinner has held the fort, but backup Clay Stevenson has struggled badly, and the Jets are coming off a home loss to the Carolina Hurricanes.
The St. Louis Blues return home to open a five-game homestand and have been reliable in this role, winning seven of their last nine games as home favorites. Their top-10 penalty kill also matches up well against a Winnipeg power play that has carried its offense. I'll take the home team while the Jets' off-ice distraction peaks.
The Bet: Blues (3%).
Mike has recorded NBA profits 5 of the last 6 seasons! Tuesday, Mike tips off the season with an BBA 3-Pack, and a 4% NHL TOP PLAY putting an 8-1 run to the test!
Ricky Tran
Ricky's 1* play on SA.
Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.
- The Thunder are 1-3 in their last 4 games.
- The Spurs are 6-4 in the last 10 head to head meetings.
- The Thunder are 1-3 in their last 4 road games.
Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.

Brian Bitler
For my best free pick on the board for Tuesday in the NBA opening night I am looking here at the Oklahoma City Thunder at the San Antonio Spurs. Rare chance here to get the best team in the NBA at plus points prices and that is where I will be here on Tuesday night. Sure this is also a revenge chance for the Thunder but I just do not think this is the better team and the Thunder should be ready to go due to their regular season struggles with this team. Look for the Thunder to pull away mid 4th quarter in this one.
Play on the Oklahoma City Thunder plus the points rotation #505
