Best bets for Thursday, April 2

If you're betting on the NBA, arguably the biggest surprise of the 2025-26 NBA season is the Charlotte Hornets, who have climbed all the way up to the No. 8 seed in the Eastern Conference thanks in large part to the play of rookie Kon Knueppel. Knueppel is averaging 18.8 points per game while shooting 43.1% from 3-point range as the Hornets try to potentially get out of the play-in zone. They'll take on a Phoenix Suns team which has lost seven of its last 10 games but still holds a three-game lead over the Los Angeles Clippers for the No. 7 seed in the West. Phoenix appears locked in for the play-in bracket but can at least secure home court if it maintains its seeding. The SportsLine Projection Model likes the Suns to upset Charlotte on Thursday, with Phoenix winning as an underdog in 47% of simulations for an "A" grade. Bet on Suns-Hornets and more NBA at Caesars Sportsbook here:

For NHL betting, a massive NHL game in terms of the wild card race will take place Thursday when the Los Angeles Kings, who currently occupy the second wild card spot in the Western Conference, host the Nashville Predators. The Predators are just one point behind the Kings in the standings but have struggled of late, losing their last three games. Los Angeles comes into this contest off a win over the St. Louis Blues in overtime. The SportsLine model is backing the road team in this one, as the Predators win in 54% of simulations as underdogs for a "B" grade. Bet on Predators-Kings and more NHL at Caesars Sportsbook here:
