LAS VEGAS – The Friday slate of sports in full with betting opportunities across a variety of different sports. However, in the Daily Sports Betting Preview, we’ll cover the best plays from the NBA Playoff schedule, the MLB slate as well as dive into some rugby and the NRL.
NBA Odds: Clint Capela Prop Bet
Clint Capela has been somewhat lackluster in his production in this series. Despite his struggles, the line for his total points + rebounds + assists is set at 24.5.
Clint Capela Pts+Reb+Ast Odds
- Over 24.5 -115
- Under 24.5 -115
Capela has only his this mark in one of the five games this series and is averaging just 21.2 points + rebounds + assists per game through Game 5. Even in the series against the Knicks Capela averaged below this number on a per-game basis. Meaning NBA bettors would need a well-above-average performance to see the Over hit.
Capela has seen his minutes drop from the opening postseason series from 34.0 to 32.2 and could drop further due to the potential of being in foul trouble. Capela has had 5 fouls in three of the five games this series and is averaging 4.2 a game.
If a couple of fouls get called early, his chances of going Over this number drop significantly.
MLB Odds: Athletics vs Yankees
The New York Yankees have completed the sweep against the Toronto Blue Jays and seem to have possibly gotten back on track, but it’s fair to believe the streak ends in the series opener against the Oakland Athletics.
Yankees vs Athletics Moneyline Odds
- New York Yankees -140
- Oakland Athletics +120
Oakland has a clear pitching advantage with James Kaprielian on the mound who boasts a 2.51 ERA and 1.18 WHIP this season over Jamison Taillon who has a 5.74 ERA and 1.37 WHIP. MLB betting fans should also note the A’s have the edge at the plate as well.

Oakland ranks sixth in the MLB over the last two weeks with a .269 batting average, fourth in the league with a .348 OBP and seventh in baseball in slugging with a .456. The Athletics also have a higher walk rate and lower strikeout rate than the Yankees.
With the statistical advantage in seemingly all areas, online sportsbooks might have the wrong team favored in this matchup.
Rugby Odds: Newcastle Knights vs New Zealand Warriors
The New Zealand Warriors and Newcastle Knights will face off against one another in the NRL as two teams fighting to move up the league standings. The teams have a combined record of 10-17, but it’s fair to assume one team will have a bigger advantage than the odds suggest.
Warriors vs Knights Moneyline Odds
- New Zealand Warriors -110
- Newcastle Knights -110
Both teams have struggled this season, but the Knights are much less competitive against the rest of the league compared to the Warriors.
The Knights have a scoring differential of -135 as opposed to the Warriors who are only getting outscored by 66 points this year.
Neither team is good, but getting the better of two bad things at -110 odds seems to carry enough value to be worth the investment.
