Boost Of The Day: United States Women’s Basketball To Lead By 12+ Points After The 1st Quarter Vs. Nigeria (+175, DraftKings)

DraftKings is listing the United States’ women as 30.5 point favorites against Nigeria and is giving the Americans a -8000 chance to win. With a mix of WNBA legends like Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird and Sylvia Fowles, superstars like Tina Charles, Brittney Griner, Breanna Stewart, A’ja Wilson and Skylar Diggins-Smith and more impact WNBA All-Stars, this is Team USA’s gold medal to lose. 

The United States beat this same Nigeria team by 31 points in a recent exhibition game and made a major statement with a 67-point victory over Senegal back in the 2016 Olympics. (In that exhibition against Nigeria, the Americans got off to a 20-4 lead and led 29-15 after the first quarter.) This is arguably the deepest and most talented Team USA roster ever and their size alone should cause major issues for all of their opponents.

Bonus Boost: Nationals, Blue Jays And White Sox All To Win (+600, BetMGM)

The Nationals (+105) and White Sox (-125) are both ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ values in BetQL’s model. The model is giving Washington 51.5% odds to win and the White Sox 60.1% odds to win, a 31.1% implied probability of both occurring. 

The White Sox bet in particular stands out. Chicago has gone 39-14 vs. teams with bullpen ERAs over 4.20 this season. (The Royals have a team ERA of 4.71.) Also, the BetQL model has gone 177-98 (64.4%) on moneyline bets in White Sox games. If you bet $100 on each, you’d be up $1,820.69 right now!

Meanwhile, the Blue Jays (+120) are slight underdogs in Boston against the Red Sox, as right-handed pitcher Thomas Hatch will make his 2021 debut for Toronto. A middling bullpen will back him up, but as seen many times this season, the Blue Jays lineup can provide a bunch of run support. Red Sox starter Nick Pivetta has allowed 26 hits and 14 earned runs in his last four starts (22.0 innings) and is not in good form at the moment, thus increasing the likelihood of Toronto’s lineup putting up crooked numbers. At +600, this parlay has some solid upside.

Sign up for a BetMGM account, deposit a minimum of $20, place this bet and win $100 no matter what the result is! Eligibility: NJ, CO, IN, IA, MI, TN, VA, WV, DC, NV users. Note: Place bet by 7:05pm EST on Monday July 26, 2021.

Bonus Boost: Hideki Matsuyama Men’s Olympic Tournament Winner (+1400, William Hill)

After winning the Masters in April, Matsuyama was awarded the Japanese Prime Minister’s Award, a major honor in his homeland. With that victory, he became the first Japanese male to ever win a golf major and now he’ll be back at Kasumigaseki Country Club, where he won the Asian Amateur title back in 2010 along with the Japan Junior title.

Although both Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau withdrew due to COVID, a world-class field and unforgiving 7,447 yard course will be a major test and scoring will come at a premium. Accuracy off the tee will be key due to the presence of fairway bunkers while solid mid/long iron play is also a requirement. Finally, the bentgrass greens will be very quick.

The Japanese star ranks 15th in SG: Tee-To-Green (1.154) and 15th in SG: Approach The Green (.681) this season and is in good form, making 20 of 22 cuts, including 5-for-5 in majors. While putting hasn’t been a strength to Matsuyama’s game, it’s important to note that he won the Masters on this same type of putting surface and should be very familiar with the layout of the greens. He has the 5th-best odds on FanDuel and DraftKings (+1200), but you can get more value with this William Hill odds boost.

Sign up for a William Hill account and enter code QL150 to instantly bet this risk-free up to $500! Eligibility: NJ, CO, IN, IA, MI, TN, VA, WV users. Note: Place bet by 6:30pm EST on Wednesday July 28, 2021.
