Rockets vs. Lakers: Over 205.5 points scored

After holding Houston to under 100 points and winning low-scoring battles in the first two games of the series, things finally opened up a little bit in Game 3 of the Lakers vs. Rockets series. The two teams combined for 220 points and LeBron James had a vintage night with 29 points, 13 rebounds, six assists, three steals and a blocked shot. The model predicts that these two squads combine to score 214 points on average and that the Over hits in 59% of simulations. Back the Over here, and claim $300 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet wins as a new user:

Ducks vs. Oilers: Under 7.5 goals scored

“I was sitting here wondering if the books had the stones to post a 7.5 total for a Stanley Cup playoff game. Question answered (have never seen an 8 in my life, FYI, if wondering). Can’t tell you how rare that is,” SportsLine NHL expert Matt Severance said. “Again, I am prepared to lose and the Ducks nearly topped this themselves in Game 3. But it’s an absolute must-play something per the math. We win on a 3-3 regulation draw in the postseason? 100 percent have to and when the final score is 6-5, I just say good job dudes.” Back the Under at DraftKings here, and claim $300 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet wins as a new user:
