We’re at that stretch of the season before the All-Star break where it seems every NBA team is being wracked with injuries. The two teams squaring off on Tuesday, February 6, in the Memphis Grizzlies and the New York Knicks are chief among them. A whopping 13 of the Grizzlies’ 15 regularly rostered players were out due to injury in their last game. The Knicks aren’t anywhere close to that, but they did finally run out of steam with four of their Top 6 players out in a loss against the Los Angeles Lakers when last seen. The Knicks are greater than double-digit favorites for Tuesday’s contest, per the NBA odds. I’m looking elsewhere for value, however. My NBA picks and predictions for Grizzlies vs. Knicks believe Josh Hart should continue his dominant stretch on the glass.

The nightcap of Monday’s NBA schedule features the Philadelphia 76ers visiting the Portland Trail Blazers. Those coming to watch Joel Embiid, who leads the NBA MVP odds, play in the Pacific Northwest will be disappointed, as the 76ers big man will miss his second straight game. The NBA odds sure seem to think the Sixers don't need him tonight as they are close to double-digit favorites against a Blazers team that still seems allergic to getting buckets. And even without Embiid, it won’t get any easier tonight against a Philly team that is sneaky good at the defensive end of the floor.   Does Portland have any value as a home underdog with Embiid sidelined? I break down this matchup and bring you the best bet, plus a same-game parlay, in my NBA picks and predictions for 76ers vs. Trail Blazers. 76ers vs Trail Blazers odds 76ers vs Trail Blazers predictions Jokes about not wanting to face Nikola Jokic aside, Joel Emibiid is the favorite to win his secon...

We’ve got just two Game s on the NHL betting slate to night , including a divisional matchup between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings. The Leafs won 3-2 when these teams last played, with William Nylander being the first star of the game. The NHL odds suggest another high-scoring Leafs win tonight, and I think No. 88 on Toronto shows up again. Find out which one of his NHL player props I'll be backing in my free NHL picks for the Red Wings vs. Maple Leafs on January 14. Red Wings vs Maple Leafs odds Red Wings vs Maple Leafs predictions After a week of excellent two-way play where the Toronto Maple Leafs allowed five goals in a five-game span, they have now had back-to-back lackluster performances that have ended in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders, and a 5-3 loss to Colorado last night.  Meanwhile, the Detroit Red Wings are coming off a 5-3 win over the Kings and have won four of their last five. However, Detroit’s victories ha...

Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns are hosting the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday, November 22. The Suns are beginning to find their groove despite the ongoing absence of Bradley Beal, while the Warriors remain without Draymond Green and are struggling to put together a non-Steph Curry offense.  NBA odds favor the home Suns, but the Warriors are desperate to get back on track with Curry playing at an MVP level this season. My free NBA picks and predictions for Warriors vs. Suns believe Phoenix’s tendency to blow late leads combined with its rest disadvantage creates a unique betting opportunity in tonight’s fourth quarter.

The Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins will meet for the second time in eight days after the Habs handed the B’s just their third defeat of the season last weekend — a rare misstep for Boston. The Bruins roll into tonight’s contest with a 12-1-2 record, good for second place overall behind only the Golden Knights, while they own the NHL’s stingiest defense at just 2.00 goals against per game. Can Montreal defy NHL odds again or will the hosts continue their climb to the top of the NHL standings? Find out in my Canadiens vs Bruins free NHL picks for Saturday, November 18. Canadiens vs Bruins odds Canadiens vs Bruins predictions The Boston Bruins bounced right back after last Saturday’s loss to the Montreal Canadiens, picking up a 5-2 win against the Sabres on Tuesday in their only game of the week. Linus Ullmark made 32 saves in the win, but it’s Jeremy Swayman who will likely get the start between the pipes at TD Garden tonight. Swayman ...

Scientists from the UK's MIT Research Institute have just announced a houseplant that has the ability to emit light to create natural light, gradually replacing electric lights. The idea of plants emitting light is not new. Several research projects on this idea over the past few years have all failed and yielded nothing. However, the British Research Institute MIT pursued the project to the end and so far has achieved great success. The research was carried out by the “Plant Nanobionics” group, which also specializes in small plants . Engineers tampered with kale plants to make them glow for hours. According to the long-term plan, the team will develop this plant to create longer and brighter light to help people read books . Kale can glow in the night like an electric light.
