NCAA-B | Texas vs Nevada
Play on: UNDER 143½ -108
Texas vs Nevada Free Pick March 16, 2018

The Texas Longhorns will be an underdog here against Nevada in the first round of the tournament, and the Wolfpack come in looking a bit sluggish. They lost twice to San Diego State at the end of the year, including a loss in the Mountain West Tournament. The Longhorns are one of the better defensive teams in the BIG12, and they are 10-3 straight up in non conference games this season. Their defensive expertise should serve them well here in a matchup versus a Nevada team that racked up 27 wins by beating up on inferior teams in the Mountain West Conference. Texas allowed just 66 points in a total of six neutral site games this season, roughly 10 points less than the Wolfpack allowed at neutral sites. Mohamed Bamba missed three games due to injury, but returned to score 10 points on 4-of-5 shooting in just 14 minutes in a loss to Texas Tech in the BIG12 Tournament. The Wolfpack have failed to cover in four of their last five non-conference games, and they are just 1-4-1 ATS in their last six neutral site games. The under is is 24-11 in the Longhorns last 35 neutral site games. The Wolfpack have failed to cover in four of their last five NCAA Tournament games, and I like Texas to win a low scoring game here in Nashville. Take UNDER.

GL,

NCAA-B | Lipscomb vs North Carolina
Play on: North Carolina -19 -110 at YouWager

DMack's Free Play for Friday, March 16, 2018 is on the North Carolina Tar Heels

The Lipscomb Bison won 12 of 13 down the stretch including a win over Florida Gulf Coast in the Atlantic Sun final, a game they led by 30, saw the lead cut to five, and then held on. This is the their first appearance in the Big Dance and they face a classic program, the defending champs, and a team that has won 15 straight games in this round. Can the Heels basically cover 20 ??? Lipscomb is 2-4 against the Top 100 and three of those losses were by 23+ points. The Heels are relentless offensive rebounders that snare almost 40% of their misses. This will give them plenty of bunnies and easy second chances and there's not much the newbies can do about it. North Carolina by 26.

NCAA-B | New Mexico State vs Clemson
Play on: Clemson -4½ -107 at 5Dimes

This is a 1* Free Play on Clemson.

The New Mexico State Aggies finished 28-5 overall, while the Clemson Tigers were 23-9. Clemson was 11-7 in the ACC and was knocked out in the semifinals of the ACC Tournament by eventual winner Virginia. New Mexico State locked down the No. 1 spot in the regular season and then also grabbed the WAC tournament title for the auto bid to The Big Dance. New Mexico State has won six in a row entering the NCAA Tournament and it ranks fifth nationally in opposing field-goal percentage (39.2) and rebounding margin (9.1), but we still don’t think it’ll be enough against the Tigers. Clemson is ranked 35th in the country defensively in opposing field goal percentage and its 29th in blocked shots per game (4.9.) Note as well that New Mexico State is a poor 1-4 ATS in its last five NCAA Tournament contests and only 4-10 ATS in its last 14 following an ATS victory, while Clemson is 5-0 ATS in its last five non-conference contests and 4-1 ATS in its last five neutral site affairs. We think the battle hardened ACC powerhouse has the advantage here. Consider laying the points on the TIGERS.

NBA | Kings vs Warriors
Play on: Kings +12 -105 at pinnacle

#NBA FREE PICK FROM MIKE LUNDIN

The Golden State Warriors are banged up badly and were missing three of their four All-Stars (Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green) in a 117-106 triumph over the Lakers on Wednesday. Kevin Durant led the way instead, but he's dealing with right rib soreness and is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings.

The Kings have been pretty competitive lately, winning four of their last eight games straight up and covering the spread in six of those eight. The Warriors are 4-11-1 ATS in their last 16 games following a straight up win of more than 10 points and 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall.

With the Warriors mainly looking to stay healthy I'm gonna take the points with the underdog in this contest.

My free pick is on Sacramento Kings.
