The hardwood heats up early with the Cleveland Cavaliers hosting the Detroit Pistons at 7 p.m. ET, followed by a late-night showdown between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the San Antonio Spurs at 9:30 p.m. ET. Both the Cavaliers and Spurs are leading their respective series, but don’t expect any easy predictions. The SportsLine Projection Model—which simulates every NBA game 10,000 times and has generated over $10,000 in profit for $100 bettors on top-rated picks over the past eight seasons—is eyeing the Timberwolves as the best value play at +165 odds to upset the Spurs. Meanwhile, one of SportsLine’s top experts is zeroing in on a player prop for the Pistons-Cavaliers matchup as part of Friday’s best bets.
But the action doesn’t stop on the court. The model also sees value on the diamond, backing the Over on 7 runs in the Subway Series showdown between the New York Yankees and New York Mets. These crosstown rivals lit up the scoreboard last season, averaging 10.3 runs per game across six meetings. While both teams are sending aces to the mound—Yankees phenom Cam Schlittler (1.35 ERA) and Mets standout Clay Holmes (1.86 ERA)—the offenses are loaded with star power. The Yankees boast the third-best offense in baseball (5.07 runs per game), and the Mets have scored 22 runs over their last three games. Expect fireworks in this New York battle.
Combine the Timberwolves moneyline, the Pistons-Cavaliers player prop, and the Yankees-Mets Over into a single parlay at BetMGM, and you’re looking at a potential payout of +808 (risk $100 to win $808, odds subject to change). The model is on a scorching 26-9 run (74%) on top-rated NBA spread picks this season, so this could be your ticket to a big Friday.
