Weekly Sports Betting Preview
The jockeying in the NHL standings offers up some interesting betting matchups early this week, while college basketball betting is ramped up with the run toward March Madness, and the NBA is heading into the home stretch of its shortened regular season.
Houston has a winning record, but has been lousy on the road with just six wins heading into action against the Boston Celtics in NBA betting action on Tuesday night.
The Celtics have won four in a row, and the Rockets' recent slide on the road will have Boston set as the favorite on the NBA betting lines at 5Dimes for this tilt.
Miami has been nearly unbeatable at home with only a pair of losses there so far this season, and they put that record on the line against the formidable Atlanta Hawks in NBA betting action on Wednesday. As well, Thursday night it’s the Orlando Magic and high-flying Chicago Bulls in action on the hardwood.
College basketball betting is in high gear with all the major conference tournaments going on leading up to March Madness. No. 13 Georgetown will be a favorite on the college hoops betting lines on Wednesday in a Big East matchup against the winner of the St. John’s vs. Pittsburgh game - which goes on Tuesday afternoon.
Things really heat up on the college basketball betting menu on Thursday with Syracuse, Kansas, Missouri, and many other Top-25 schools involved in conference tournament matchups. Check out the latest college hoops betting lines at 5Dimes, where some great bonuses have been offered lately.
The NHL has many significant betting matchups on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Two Eastern Conference games will see most of the attention on Tuesday, as the Rangers play the Devils while Toronto tries to end a four-game losing skid against Boston when they host the Bruins.
The Maple Leafs won’t have much turnaround time as they fly straight to Pittsburgh for another important NHL betting matchup on Wednesday. San Jose and Dallas, along with the matchup between Florida and Philadelphia, will see most of the attention on the betting lines in NHL action on Thursday.
