VSiN.com senior editor Zach Cohen sets up tonight’s NBA Draft (8 ET, ABC):
While Cooper Flagg to the Mavericks at No. 1 and Dylan Harper to the Spurs at No. 2 feel like certainties, the rest of the draft is filled with uncertainty. That starts with Ace Bailey, who is viewed as the third-best prospect in the draft. Bailey’s camp is trying to get him to a preferred destination, so nobody knows where he’ll land in the Top 10. Between that and a bunch of trade rumors, we’re in for a wild night.
>>Zach ranks the top 20 prospects available in the draft.
Drew Dinsick, NBC Sports Bet analyst, offered his draft opinions on A Numbers Game with Gill Alexander. >>Watch the segment.
One of the teams to watch today: The Celtics. A day after trading Jrue Holiday, Boston continued to dismantle its 2024 title team, sending Kristaps Porzingis to the Hawks in a three-way deal that included the Nets.
MLB: The future is now
Reds pitcher Chase Burns made quite a first impression on the Yankees — and the NL Rookie of the Year betting market.
In his MLB debut on Tuesday night, Burns struck out the first five Yankees he faced, finished with eight Ks and gave up three runs on six hits in five innings.
During VSiN PrimeTime, co-host Will Hill pointed out that Burns’ NL ROY odds went from 100-1 at DraftKings on Sunday to +300 (at FanDuel) by the second inning. Burns, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2024 draft, is second in the odds behind the Brewers’ Jacob Misiorowski (+180).
Misiorowski faces 2024 NL ROY Paul Skenes today (2:05 ET) as the Pirates (-117) take on the Brewers (+105).
Greg Peterson takes a pass on that game but still has eight Best Bets.
Steve Makinen and Josh Appelbaum will file their daily contributions later this morning.
I introduced VSiN’s new MLB betting tools in yesterday’s email.
