New Orleans Hornets at Detroit Pistons [ABC | 1 PM ET]

Hornets: New Orleans point guard Chris Paul is enjoying one of the best stretches of his young career, averaging 27.5 points in his last 6 games. “He’s been playing great,” Hornets head coach Byron Scott said. “What else can you say? I might be a little biased, but I think he is the MVP. I think what he brings to this team and what he means to this team is obvious on the numbers that he’s putting up.” Paul tweaked his ankle at the end of Friday's win over the Lakers but is expected to play.

Hornets are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
The OVER is 19-9-1 in New Orleans' last 29 games vs. Central Division.

Key Injuries- F David West will be a game-time decision after spraining his right ankle in Friday's win over the Lakers.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD


Pistons (NA): Detroit continues a stretch of 3 straight games against Western Conference opponents, which the players believe will get them ready for the playoffs since those teams are all fighting for the playoffs. “It is definitely a good time, especially since each of these teams are fighting for a spot in the playoffs as far as positioning,” Pistons forward Tayshaun Prince said. “So definitely this is a challenge for us, especially with this game tonight and the next few games we have so hopefully we continue to play the way we are playing.”

Pistons are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
Pistons are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 Sunday games.

The UNDER is 14-2 in Detroit's last 16 games vs. Southwest Division.

Key Injuries- NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

Los Angeles Lakers at Houston Rockets [ABC | 3:30 PM ET]

Lakers: Ironically, LA must now adjust to playing without its top post player after Pau Gasol went down with a sprained ankle in Friday night's loss at New Orleans. Houston has thrived since All-Star center Yao Ming went down with a season-ending foot injury en route to a franchise-best winning streak, so now it's the Lakers' turn. “Obviously, we can’t run as many low-post opportunities as we had when Pau was here,” LA star Kobe Bryant said. “We’ve got to change it up.”

Lakers are 19-7-1 ATS in their last 27 road games.
Lakers are 6-2 ATS in the last 8 meetings.
The UNDER is 6-2 in LA's last 8 Sunday games.

Key Injuries- C/F Pau Gasol (sprained ankle) will miss the final 3 games of the team's road trip though X-rays were negative.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD


Rockets (-4, O/U 197): Houston's rise in the standings is "unexplainable" to star Tracy McGrady, as the Rockets have gone from 10th place in the Western Conference to tied for first in a little more than 2 months. Teammate Shane Battier agreed, and he is the first to admit they have been a bit lucky along the way in winning 21 straight. “I take solace in the fact that we are the luckiest team in, maybe, the history of NBA basketball,” Battier said. “If that’s our distinction, that’s fine by us.”

Rockets are 18-3 ATS during their franchise-record 21-game winning streak.
Rockets are 12-2 ATS in their last 14 home games.

Key Injuries- F/C Carl Landry (sore knee; 8.5 ppg) worked out for a second straight day on Friday and is listed as questionable.

PROJECTED SCORE: TBD

ACC Title: Clemson vs. #1 North Carolina [ESPN | 1 PM ET]

Clemson: The Tigers are in the ACC title game for the first time since 1962, and they are the only charter member of the league to never win the tourney in its 55-year history. “I didn’t know that,” Clemson head coach Oliver Purnell said. “I knew it was a long time ago and I knew we’d maybe only been in it once and never won it. I don’t spend a lot of time with streaks with these young guys and that kind of thing. It’s this year’s team. I think those weights are too heavy and insignificant.”

Clemson is 5-1 SU in its last 6 games overall, going 4-2 ATS.
The UNDER is 9-3-1 in Clemson's last 13 games overall.

Key Injuries- NONE

Big 12 Title: #8 Texas vs. #5 Kansas [ESPN | 3 PM ET]

Texas: The Longhorns are the only school in the country to beat 3 Top 5 teams this season. Texas owns victories over No. 3 UCLA, No. 4 Tennessee and No. 5 Kansas. A second win over the Jayhawks will likely earn Texas a top seed in this week’s NCAA Tournament, so insiders expect this team to be plenty motivated on Sunday.

Texas is 8-3-1 ATS in its last 12 games overall.
Texas is 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings.
The UNDER is 6-2 in Texas' last 8 games overall.

Kansas is 3-7 ATS in its last 10 games overall.

SEC Title: Georgia vs. Arkansas [ESPN2 | 3:30 PM ET]

Georgia : Fatigue could obviously become a major factor here after the Bulldogs played a doubleheader on Saturday that included an overtime game. However, some insiders believe they were best prepared to deal with a new venue after Friday's game was postponed due to a tornado since they were the closest team to home and would not be surprised to see another upset.

Georgia is 4-1 SU & ATS in its last 5 games overall.
The OVER is 15-7 in Georgia's last 22 neutral site games.

Key Injuries- NONE

PROJECTED SCORE: 62


Arkansas (-7.5, O/U 132): The Razorbacks are coming off a thrilling win over top-seeded Tennessee on Saturday, with an unlikely hero hitting the game-winning shot. Steven Hill made only one basket in the entire game - which saw 17 lead changes - as he hit a turnaround jumper with 5.3 seconds remaining. “I obviously did not expect to take that shot,” Hill said. “Or any other shot that late in the game. They gave it to me and time was running out, so I kind of threw it up there and put it in.”

Favorite is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings.
Arkansas is 3-6-1 ATS in its last 10 games overall.
Arkansas is 8-3 ATS in its last 11 Sunday games.
