Jonathan Coachman brings in top sports betting experts Mike McClure, Rick Gehman and Larry Hartstein on the Early Edge podcast, powered by SportsLine. The team reveals their targeted picks for WGC Dell Match Play, college basketball, the NBA and NHL.

Mike leads off the SportsLine Storylines of the Day with his in-depth NBA injury report, touching on many teams, including the Magic, Knicks, Pelicans, Nets, Lakers, and more. Rick lays out expectations for WGC Dell Match Play, which is an annual exercise in chaos. 

The Coach issues the SportsLine Play of the Day, as he is all in on the Lightning -160 to down the Stars yet again at 8:30 p.m. ET. 

Mike is looking for the Knicks to be in better health as they take on the Wizards at 7:30 p.m. ET, so he is going with New York at -2.5. He is already peering ahead to the Sweet 16 with Michigan -3 over FSU on Sunday at 5 p.m. ET. Mike believes Hunter Dickinson will be a significant factor in the outcome. 

Rick then delivers his best targets for WGC Dell Match Play, beginning with Lanto Griffin at +500 to win Group 11. "Its not going to be an easy group to get out of," he says. "The big name in his group is Rory McIlroy, but he has struggled. We know the well-documented troubles in his game. He has not won since 2019 in Match Play. Lanto Griffin is really good with his irons, he's really good with his putter. That is the absolute combination for success in Match Play." Rick likes Jason Kokrak at +260 to win Group 12, as he has strong momentum right now. He is going with Bryson DeChambeau at +1400 to win, as he is the "best putter on the planet," and that is Incredibly important. 

Larry shares his CBI pick, opting for Stetson +7.5 over Coastal Carolina at 5:30 p.m. ET. The Hatters will be close to home, and having fans backing them will provide a needed boost. He also supplies some NBA props from Nuggets-Magic at 7 p.m. ET, recommending Michael Porter Jr. Over 24.5 points and rebounds, and Paul Millsap Under 13.5 points and rebounds.
