MASSIVE WIN: See this incredible 8-leg UFC 290 parlay
EXPERT PICKS: We have best bets from three different sports
ACTION REPORT: Are bettors buying Trevor Lawrence for MVP?
ASK THE TRADER: Does a Wimbledon Cinderella story go on?
This Pennsylvania client deserves a standing ovation after this masterpiece.
Incredibly, seven of the eight legs on this UFC 290 parlay came at plus-money odds.
EXPERT PICKS
It's never a slow season of sports at the Hustle! Ariel Epstein has an MLB All-Star pick for tonight, with Max Meyer back at it for WNBA. For tomorrow, Daniel Parisi has two more Wimbledon plays.
THE PROP QUEEN
National League F5 Run Line +0.5 (-150) vs. American League [8 p.m. ET]
“The NL is filled with young hungry talent like Luis Arraez and Corbin Carroll, while AL is missing multiple stars. Four of the first five in the NL’s lineup are hitting over .300 vs. AL starter Gerrit Cole.”
THE SENIOR EDITOR
Seattle Storm +5.5 (-115) @ Washington Mystics [7 p.m. ET]
“The Mystics were already without center Shakira Austin, now they’re down Elena Della Donne too. The Storm gave Dulcy Fankam Mendjiadeu her first career start last game vs. the Liberty, and she put up a double double against that strong frontcourt. I think her and center Ezi Magbegor will take advantage of the depleted Mystics in the paint.”
THE AGREEABLE ACE
Daniil Medvedev vs. Christopher Eubanks: Medvedev Set Betting 3-1 (+240) [Wed., 9:30 a.m. ET]
"Medvedev has had a seamless route to the quarters and I'll take his fresh legs to power through Eubanks."
Carlos Alcaraz vs. Holger Rune: Alcaraz Set Betting 3-1 (+260) [Wed., 10 a.m. ET]
"Alcaraz is getting stronger as the tournament progresses and will have no issues generating break point opportunities against Rune, who was nearly bounced in the third round."
PointsBet is offering NO JUICE® ODDS on the run line and total for tonight’s MLB All-Star Game. Check back in during tonight’s Power Hour, starting at 6 p.m. ET.

It’s the slow season of the sports calendar, but at least we’re closer to this NFL campaign kicking off. To help speed up the timeline, we have our daily NFL betting reports. We’ll be highlighting the betting action for individual teams in four Hustles per week, sorting them out by division.
We move along in the AFC South today with the Jaguars.
SUPER BOWL Odds: Opened +3500 (11th), currently +2500 (10th)
Action: 2.8% tickets (13th), 1.4% handle (18th)
WIN TOTAL Odds: 9.5 (Over -155, Under +125)
Action: OVER 82% tickets, OVER 80% handle
DIVISION Odds: Opened -145 (1st), currently -175 (1st)
Action: 49.5% tickets (1st), 67.1% handle (1st) *The Jaguars are tied for the biggest favorites to win any NFL division along with the 49ers
PERUSING THE PLAYERS
Are bettors buying Trevor Lawrence as a potential NFL MVP sleeper? The third-year signal-caller’s MVP odds have risen slightly from +1300 to +1400. Lawrence is seventh in tickets for this market at 4.2%, but isn’t at the same level in handle, as he sits in 10th with 1.9% in that category.
One noteworthy Jaguars longshot who has gotten some action in an awards market is Calvin Ridley. The wideout coming off a year-long suspension opened at +7500 for Offensive Player of the Year, and is now down to +6600. Ridley has collected 1.7% of the tickets (T-16th) and 1.0% of the handle (19th), including more than fellow star pass-catchers Tyreek Hill (+1800), Cooper Kupp (+2000), Davante Adams (+2000) and Stefon Diggs (+2500).
Raise your hand♂️ if you had Christopher Eubanks as the last American man standing at Wimbledon? One Illinois client actually may have, as an $11.76 wager came in on Eubanks +40000 for a potential win of $4,704.
Eubanks plays tomorrow morning against No. 3 Daniil Medvedev, and is a +360 underdog. So far, Eubanks has racked up 51% of the tickets and 67% of the handle among all moneyline wagers for this match.
We asked Head of Trading Kevin Lawler for his thoughts on this incredible Cinderella story.
LAWLER: “Eubanks’ style of play is simple: serve huge, and be aggressive on the plus one. He likes coming in to the net, finishing points early and making life uncomfortable for opponents. He’s got a unique game that none of the top guys are familiar with since he’s never been at this level before. Medvedev will absolutely be worried here, and Eubanks will have his respect and attention after beating Stefanos Tsitsipas yesterday in a career-best win. Eubanks has been well-backed all tournament and we’ve written some long-priced outright tickets on him to lift the title.”
