- Warriors vs Magic - Stephen Curry Steals Under 1.5 (-200)
Michigan State vs Kentucky
The Kentucky Wildcats and the Michigan State Spartans are facing off in the championship classic and it is a game that should be a great battle. However, the Spartans are a team that has a lot of talent on the court, but also some great players that can help out and contribute. The problem is the Wildcat have plenty of players on the team that can drive to the inside and cause the Michigan State interior, the strength of the Spartans offense and defense, to get into foul trouble. Once the Spartans start to have some foul issues I expect to see the Kentucky Wildcats take the lead, but also to reach the point of covering the spread by getting the free throws that will be inevitable in a game of this caliber as the final 30 seconds will last what seems like 30 minutes with fouls.

Blue Jackets vs Jets
This game here will be a good game, but the Jets will have the advantage in the game here. The Jets are playing at home which the Jets have only lost 3 times at home this year, but will face a Blue Jackets team that will be come in tired. The Blue Jackets are playing after getting a win in Montreal, but it was a game that the Blue Jackets had to face a strong competition and the game that ended up being settled in a shootout. That type of game play makes it hard to see the Blue Jackets being able to bounce back nicely and win in back to back games, but with tired legs and a defense that was pushed to the limits and almost failed against Montreal, I do not see the Blue Jackets doing enough to beat the Jets. Check out our full Blue Jackets vs Jets prediction.
Warriors vs Magic
The Warriors and the Magic should have a great game on tap for us on Tuesday night. However, I am looking more at Curry and how he has played. More importantly I am looking at his steals total which is set at a 1.5 which I think is just right and should provide you with some money. The over under is set with the over at a +150 and the under set at a -200. Now, I think the -200 should be fairly easy money to grab as the Magic do have decent guard play and should be able to keep the ball out of the hands of Curry. At the same time, I think that the steals history for Curry will reflect what he can do in this game as well with no steals in his last game, 1 steal in 2 games, and 2 teals in the other 2 games in his last 5 games. Those totals do not really add up to hitting the over and I think he may end up with a steal in the game, but I think going over the 1.5 total is a bit of a stretch.
