7-1 night for Pickswise as March Madness returns
March Madness brought the drama again on Thursday and the Pickswise team had a big night, going 7-1 with our picks. We went 2-1 on our 3-star plays and Caleb Wilfinger was a perfect 2-0 in his college basketball best bets article.
On the court, comebacks were in fashion, with Gonzaga fighting back from a 13-point halftime deficit to beat UCLA 79-76 and Florida Atlantic beating Tennessee 62-55 after being behind by 5 at the half. Kansas State vs Michigan State went to OT before the Wildcats came through, with the most straightforward win of the day going to UConn as the Huskies beat Arkansas 88-65.
Cavs complete quick double
The Cavaliers secured a second road win over the Nets in 3 days with a buzzer-beating three for a 116-114 victory, while the Knicks suffered another setback with a 111-106 loss to the Magic. Our only 3-star play of under 225.5 in the Hornets vs Pelicans game cashed easily as New Orleans won 115-96.
