The Cavaliers went 2-2 vs. the Magic during the regular season. ...

Sox send a quality starter v Cleveland and Bos has a lineup that is depleted and missing some key cogs. Plus after a few unseasonably nice days in the Hub, the weather is getting colder by the min and wind is a factor. Under.

This number doesn’t make sense against the Bulls team 26th in pace, good D guards and with Trey Young taking away shots.

Vooch struggles v Capella. The line has not baked this into the equation. Plus, while playoff games mean shorter benches, Andre Drummond is a quality backup and shouldn’t get less min. Half unit

Bit surprised that the playoff-tested Heat are getting this many points as would it really surprise anyone if they won outright? Jimmy Butler loves sticking it to his former club. Yeah, the Sixers are on an eight-game winning streak but Joel Embiid is not 100 percent. Bam Adebayo is a worthy post opponent. Philly's De'Anthony Melton just returned from injury yet is out tonight. No Terry Rozier but Duncan Robinson is back for the Heat.

Young has yet to clip this threshold in the three games since his return from a finger injury, But he has been on limited minutes in an attempt to build back his game shape and essentially prepare for a heavy workload in this play-in clunker between two depth-lacking teams. Despite his sometimes-erratic ways, Young has averaged more than 26 points in 27 playoff games and there's little doubt he'll take over as the top option in this do-or-die format. Take the Over on this modest total.

Tyrese Maxey averaged 27.3 points and 8.3 assists in the regular season versus the Heat. In the last meeting, he played 41 minutes as Philly won 109-105 in Miami. With so much at stake Wednesday, look for Maxey to play about 40 minutes and clear this prop total.

Kevin Gausman dealt with shoulder fatigue this spring, his velocity is down, and he enters this home start with an 11.57 ERA. Look for the Yankees to avoid the sweep behind Marcus Stroman, who tossed six scoreless innings against Toronto on April 5.

Managers want their starting pitchers to go five innings at least so they can qualify for the win and also help save the bullpen. That's my thinking here on Irvin and he has gone at least five in each start this year -- six in the past two. He also pitched well and went six last September when he most recently faced LA. Get through the first inning unscathed against the top of that Dodgers lineup, and I feel pretty good about this.
