POSITIONS

Game 3: Oklahoma City vs. Phoenix
2.0u TOP PICK NBA
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: 1+ threes
Entry 79¢
Volume $11K
SGA averages 4.4 three-point attempts per game, and with Jalen Williams' 24% usage sidelined, his offensive volume is guaranteed. Mathematical binomial modeling projects an 89% probability of at least one make, providing a significant cushion against the 0.79 market entry.
Game 3: Oklahoma City vs. Phoenix
1.5u NBA
Devin Booker: 25+ points
Entry 45¢
Volume $4K
With Phoenix facing a potential 0-3 deficit and Grayson Allen hobbled, Booker's usage is projected to spike well above his 30% baseline. His 26.1 PPG average and the necessity for high-volume scoring in an elimination-style atmosphere make the 45% price a glaring market inefficiency.
Game 4: Pittsburgh vs. Philadelphia
0.5u SPEC NHL
Pittsburgh Penguins wins by over 2.5 goals
Entry 18¢
Volume $536
This is a high-upside play on an elimination game where trailing teams pull goalies early, leading to multi-goal swings. With Flyers' goalie Dan Vladar (94.7% SV) questionable, Pittsburgh's veteran core is priced at a massive discount to avoid the sweep.
Game 4: Carolina vs. Ottawa
0.5u SPEC NHL
Carolina Hurricanes wins by over 2.5 goals
Entry 21¢
Volume $6K
Ottawa's defensive core is severely compromised with three top defensemen (Sanderson, Zub, Jensen) ruled out. Carolina's top-5 offense is perfectly positioned to exploit this depth crisis and secure a multi-goal victory in an elimination scenario.
Philadelphia vs Atlanta
MLB
Atlanta Braves (Moneyline)
Entry 56¢
Volume $224K
Atlanta's +62.0 NetRtg is the highest on the board, facing a Phillies team on a 7-game losing streak. Zack Wheeler's diminished velocity (91-93 mph) in rehab starts makes him vulnerable to a Braves lineup that has dominated this season series 4-1.
