Good morning, Pickswise Nation. The Masters is here and we also have NBA, MLB and NHL slates today, so let’s get straight to making your next bet better.
About Last Night
Bucks clinch #1 seed
The Milwaukee Bucks wrapped up the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference with a 105-92 win over the Bulls that took them 3 games ahead of the Celtics with 2 games left to play. Our only 3-star play on the Wednesday slate cashed as the Nets vs Pistons game went over 220.5 points in a 123-108 Brooklyn win. The Pelicans clinched at least a play-in spot with a 138-131 OT win over the Grizzlies.
Strong day of MLB picks
The Pickswise MLB cappers had a strong Wednesday, going 8-4 and cashing our Wednesday parlay at reduced +264 odds with one leg pushing as the Cubs vs Reds game was rained out. We were 2-0 with our MLB player props too! That man Shohei Ohtani had quite a day as he led the Angels to a 4-3 win over the Mariners, allowing 1 run in 6 innings and driving in a run, but he also managed to pick up pitch-clock violations as both a pitcher and a hitter.
Oilers’ streak continues
There were only 3 NHL games on Wednesday, but they all had playoff implications and the Flames kept their playoff hopes alive with a 3-1 win over the Jets, while the Oilers beat the Ducks 3-1 for their 6th straight win.
