If you are looking to make some money on Saturday then take a look at the basketball picks offered by our top handicappers.  Jack Jones has a pair of winners in college basketball and two more going in the NBA.  Mr. East has been handicapping both sports tremendously well and is putting out his top plays in both sports for today.  Jay Todd has a lot of NBA games going today as he tries to bounce back from an off Friday, plus there are plenty of more packages available.

For our free basketball pick for Saturday let’s take a look at the Butler at Drake game:

Both of these teams are coming off NCAA tournament appearances and will look to get their seasons started off on the right track.  Drake was 28-5 a year ago after starting out 22-1 to climb as high as No. 14 in the polls.  However, after winning both the regular season championship and the Missouri Valley tournament the team was upset in the first round of the tournament by Western Kentucky.

Butler was 30-4 and won the Horizon League, reaching No. 11 in the rankings and getting to the second round of the tournament before losing to Tennessee.   The Bulldogs have started off the last two years hot winning their first eight and first ten the last two years.

Drake gave Butler a loss last year, the only home loss Butler had all year.  The Bulldogs were 14-1 at home a year ago while Butler was 15-3 as a visitor.  Drake is on an ATS run of 11-5 at home, 20-8 ATS in non-conferene games, and 10-3 ATS on Saturday games.  Butler is 21-7 ATS in their last 28 non-conference games and 4-1 ATS in their last five against the Missouri Valley.

Today, I like Drake to take care of business and to cover the six point spread.

Even if you don’t want to bet basketball today, make sure you take a look at the football picks available from our handicappers.  There are a lot of big games going today in college football and our guys can help to make sure you head into NFL Sunday with a bigger bankroll than you started with.  Sign up now and start winning!
