Penn (-5.5) vs. Lafayette (-108)

"Down the Northeast Extension to the Palestra from Bethlehem tonight, we still don't know if Mike McGarvey's Lafayette is any better than last year's 11-20 edition," legendary SportsLine expert Bruce Marshall said. "Only vs. low-grade Ball State and Stonehill have the Leopards demonstrated pizzazz after a succession of heavy losses on the road earlier in November. Aside from Gs Caleb Williams (17 ppg) & Andrew Phillips (14 ppg), firepower is limited; at 69.3 ppg, Lafayette ranks 317th in scoring, and poor 40.7% FG accuracy ranks even lower (33rd out of 361). More to like with Fran McCaffery's Penn, outgunned by Hofstra and Villanova the past two but hardly outmatched here, with a legit go-threat in forward Ethan Roberts (18 ppg) and hitting 41% beyond the arc (ranks 13th nationally)." Back Penn at DraftKings Sportsbook, where new users get $200 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet wins:

Timberwolves vs. Suns: Over 223.5 points (-115)

The Timberwolves have the No. 6 scoring offense in the NBA at 120.3 points per game this season, and they've scored at least 125 points in three of their last four games. Anthony Edwards continues to showcase that he's one of the top playmakers in the league, ranking eighth in the league in scoring at 28.1 ppg this season. He's scored more than 30 points in six of his last eight games to lead Minnesota's offensive outbursts, while Julius Randle is adding 23 ppg this season. Although the Suns will be without their leading scorer in Devin Booker (groin), the Suns still have capable playmakers, including Dillon Brooks and Grayson Allen. Brooks (Achilles) is questionable, but he's averaging 27.7 ppg over his last three games. The model projects the Over to hit in 65.7% of simulations. Back the Over at DraftKings Sportsbook, where new users get $200 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet wins:

Chargers (+2.5) vs. Eagles (-115)

The Eagles have been a roller coaster over the last three years, with incredibly high highs as the defending Super Bowl champions, but also spiraling finishes and stretches over the last few years. The Eagles are in the midst of one of their lows, traveling to L.A. on a two-game losing streak, and the Chargers are a tough matchup for a team looking to end a losing skid. The Chargers are 19-10 over the first two years of the Jim Harbaugh era, including 8-4 this year, and they have won four of their last five games. Starting running back Omarian Hampton (ankle) is expected to return on Monday, and although Justin Herbert (hand) is listed as questionable, his history of toughness shows a likelihood of him playing, despite having surgery on his non-throwing hand earlier in the week. The Chargers are also allowing the third-fewest yards per game heading into a matchup against an Eagles offense that hasn't been as impressive this year as last year, largely stemming from Saquon Barkley averaging 61.7 rushing yards per game compared to 125.3 yards per game last year. The model projects the Chargers to cover in 56% of simulations. Back the Chargers at DraftKings Sportsbook, where new users get $200 in bonus bets if your first $5 bet wins:
