New users can take advantage of the latest DraftKings promo code, offering a $200 bonus bet plus three free months of NBA League Pass. For Wednesday’s basketball games, the SportsLine Projection Model is focusing on matchups featuring two New York City teams playing at Madison Square Garden. Interestingly, the model favors Auburn as a 6.5-point underdog against the New York Knicks and supports the Charlotte Hornets as a 5.5-point underdog against St. John’s in the Players Era Festival game. The Knicks have struggled against the spread lately, going 1-3 in their last four games, which is why the model leans toward the Hornets.
In addition, one of SportsLine’s top analysts highlights the NHL game between the Blues and Devils as the best wager for Wednesday. New users can claim DraftKings promo codes offering up to $200 in bonus bets and three free months of NBA League Pass for new sign-ups.
The SportsLine model runs 10,000 simulations for every NBA game and has earned players over $10,000 on $100 bets on top-rated NBA picks in the past eight seasons. Entering Week 5 of the 2025-26 NBA season, the model boasts a strong 28-13 record on top-rated spread picks dating back to last season, showing that following these picks can be highly profitable.
Top picks for Wednesday’s DraftKings Sportsbook include:
– Hornets (+6.5) vs. Knicks
– Devils (-142) to beat Blues
– Auburn (+5.5) vs. St. John’s
Betting on all three as a parlay at DraftKings offers a payout of +521 (risking $100 to win $521).
For the Hornets vs. Knicks game, despite the Hornets’ 4-13 losing stretch, they are 3-2 against the spread in their last five outings. The Knicks have been poor against the spread on the road and at Madison Square Garden. The model predicts the Hornets will cover the spread in 62% of simulations.
In hockey, the Devils, even without Jack Hughes, are favored over the Blues. They have an impressive 8-0-1 record at home so far this season, and with the return of center Cody Glass, the team’s prospects look strong. The model suggests betting on New Jersey to score first, a condition that has worked 11-1-1 this year.
In college basketball, Auburn, ranked 21st nationally, faces St. John’s, who are 0-2 against ranked teams this season. Auburn’s senior forward Keyshawn Hall is performing well, and the model shows Auburn covering the spread in 67% of outcomes.
