Why They Go Deep

As this was going to press we were watching the Tigers destroy Tennessee in the first half.  It only got worse in the second half and the rest is history.  They demolished the Vols.  This Tigers team can shoot.  Auburn is No. 1 in the nation in forcing turnovers, with a 25 percent turnover percentage.  This is a team that can upset, say, Duke.  They destroyed Tennessee with one of their top scorers barely even getting it in the net.

Why Be Concerned

Duke looked likely be the team they need to beat to advance into the Sweet 16, but it will probably be Kansas instead.  They will probably take on North Carolina in the Sweet 16 (assuming they get that far).  That will be tough but doable with a line of -5 likely favoring the Tar Heels.  

Who They Will Play

We initially had Auburn -5.5 versus Minnesota but it was looking more like they would be facing off against Saint Mary's.  Selection Sunday provided Auburn with some relief in the form of New Mexico State.  Auburn was now a -7 favorite as a result.

Basketball Odds News

Damian Lillard Next Team Odds

When the notification came across the phone from Shams Charania that the Milwaukee Bucks had signed Myles Turner to a four-year contract, initial instinct was there must be more because the Bucks can’t fit him under the salary cap as a free agent.

Seattle Storm vs. Golden State Valkyries Prop Bets June 29

The Seattle Storm (10-6) face the Golden State Valkyries (8-7) on Sunday, June 29, 2025 at Chase Center. This game begins at 8:30 p.m. ET on CW Seattle, KPIX+, and KMAX 31, and features a spread of Storm -5 (-220 on the moneyline). 

Jaylen Brown Next Team Odds

The Boston Celtics shipped Kristaps Porziņgis and Jrue Holiday this week, shedding a ton of payroll, but they could offload even more if a trade partner for Jaylen Brown emerges.
