The NBA playoffs are heating up this Friday, and there's no better time to get in on the action. With the Knicks taking on the 76ers and the Spurs facing the Timberwolves, plus a full slate of MLB games, you can turn your sports knowledge into serious rewards. Thanks to the BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS, new users can score either $150 in bonus bets if their first bet wins, or up to $1,500 in bonus bets if it loses. It's a win-win way to get started.

First up at 7 p.m. ET, the Philadelphia 76ers host the New York Knicks, who are already up 2-0 in the series. The Knicks are on fire, winning five straight games—four of them by double digits. The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every NBA game 10,000 times, is backing New York to keep rolling at +100 odds. If you're looking for a solid play, this one's worth a look.

Then at 9:30 p.m. ET, the Minnesota Timberwolves welcome the San Antonio Spurs. The series is tied 1-1, and the model expects a defensive battle, projecting the total points to stay Under 216.5. That's a smart pick if you like betting on defense to shine in a playoff atmosphere.

But it's not just about the NBA. Friday also brings major MLB matchups, including Braves vs. Dodgers. The model has already picked a side for that game, so you can build a multi-sport parlay. Combining the three top picks could pay out at +613 odds—meaning a $100 bet could win you $613. Just remember, odds are subject to change.

The SportsLine Projection Model has been on a tear this season, going 26-9 (74%) on top-rated NBA spread picks. Over the past eight-plus seasons, it's returned over $10,000 in profit for $100 bettors on its best NBA picks. That's the kind of track record that turns casual fans into savvy bettors.

Whether you're backing the Knicks' hot streak, banking on a low-scoring showdown in Minnesota, or adding some MLB action to the mix, Friday is packed with opportunities. Use the BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS to claim your bonus bets and start building your winning parlay today.
