Don’t have time to read through 1,000 words, but need some informed betting tips? Here’s a quick rundown on today’s biggest sports story, and how it impacts the way you should bet. Missed yesterday’s? See it here.
Steph Curry Goes 0/11 From Downtown
Last night in Philadelphia, Steph Curry attempted 11 three-pointers and missed every single one. Curry’s rough night tied an NBA record for most missed threes in a game without a make. Due to their weak competition, the Warriors still breezed past the 76ers, 119-108.
The Warriors will make the second stop on their five-game road trip in Washington, D.C. tonight (7:00 PM ET). Considering how bad Curry was last night, should you jump on the Wizards and take the six-points?
History says no. Since March 2013, Curry has failed to hit a three in just six games. In the games immediately after, the back-to-back MVP is a combined 32/61 from deep, and the Warriors have won five of six by at least seven points.
On top of that, Washington has lost two-straight since the All-Star break. I’ll be betting on Curry to have a big night.
