      Spurs at Rockets: What bettors need to know
      ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      San Antonio Spurs at Houston Rockets (+1.5, 213.5)

      Tony Parker excelled in his first game back and the San Antonio Spurs attempt to complete a four-game sweep of Houston when they visit the Rockets on Sunday. Parker had 22 points in Friday’s overtime victory over the Utah Jazz after missing the previous eight with an ankle injury. The victory allowed the Spurs to maintain their 2 1/2-game lead over the Oklahoma City Thunder in the battle for the top spot in the Western Conference.

      Houston is 4-1 on a seven-game homestand and entering a stretch in which it plays the Spurs, Indiana Pacers, Memphis Grizzlies and Los Angeles Clippers to complete the month. “These next four are going to really test us,” point guard Jeremy Lin said after Friday’s rout of the Cleveland Cavaliers. “We’re going to play really, really good teams. This is going to be it. This could make or break it for us so we realize that.” The Rockets can improve to a season-high eight games above .500 by beating the Spurs. San Antonio enters with a four-game winning streak and has averaged 123.3 points in winning the first three meetings with Houston.

      7 p.m. ET, Fox Sports Southwest (San Antonio), Comcast SportsNet Houston

      ABOUT THE SPURS (53-16):
      Parker played nearly 37 minutes in his first outing since March 1. He was tentative early but was at the top of his game in overtime when he scored six of San Antonio’s 14 points. “Tony was a little bit shy in the first half,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said afterward. “He was just trying to feel his way a little bit. The game got tight at the end in regulation and then in overtime, and he was Tony Parker. Like I said, up until the time he got hurt, there wasn’t a point guard in the league playing better than Tony Parker.” Forward Tim Duncan had 19 points and 16 rebounds against Utah and moved into 13th-place on the all-time rebounding list with 13,113, surpassing Shaquille O’Neal (13,099). Duncan is averaging 25.5 points and 15 rebounds over the last four games.

      ABOUT THE ROCKETS (38-31):
      Guard James Harden scored 20 points against Cleveland and has tallied 20 or more in 24 of his last 26 outings. Harden is averaging 31 points in two games against the Spurs this season. He missed one of the matchups with an ankle injury. Lin matched his career high with 38 points in the game Harden was sidelined. Lin scored a season-low four points against the Cavaliers after averaging 23 over his previous three outings. Center Omer Asik has grabbed 10 or more rebounds in 22 of the last 24 games. He had 13 points and 11 boards against Cleveland.

      TRENDS:

      * Spurs are 6-0 ATS in their last six Sunday games.
      * Rockets are 1-6 ATS in their last seven Sunday games.
      * Under is 5-0 in Rockets’ last five overall.
      * Spurs are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.

      BUZZER BEATERS

      1. San Antonio has won the last four meetings.

      2. Houston is 18-3 when scoring 115 or more points this season.

      3. Duncan has recorded 38 double-doubles in 59 career regular-season games against the Rockets.

        Fullcourt press: Sunday's NBA betting notes
        ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Atlanta Hawks at Milwaukee Bucks (-3, 203.5)

        Atlanta fell at home to the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday and dropped two of three on its just-completed homestand. The lone win in that span came against the Bucks 98-90 on Wednesday. Milwaukee had its worst offensive performance of the season in a 120-78 loss at the Pacers on Friday and is hoping to return to the form that posted 108.5 points in its last two home games - both wins. The Bucks are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall.

        Charlotte Bobcats at Miami Heat (-16.5, 199.5)

        No lead - or opponent - has been too much to overcome for the Miami Heat, who will go for their 26th consecutive victory when they host the league-worst Charlotte Bobcats. LeBron James and the Heat erased a double-digit deficit for the third time in as many games in beating the Detroit Pistons 103-89 on Friday, moving them within eight victories of tying the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers for the longest winning streak in NBA history. Miami has also won 16 straight home games and own 10 consecutive victories over Charlotte, including a pair this season. The Bobcats are 1-10 ATS in their last 11 road games.

        San Antonio Spurs at Houston Rockets (+1.5, 213.5)

        The San Antonio Spurs attempt to complete a four-game sweep of Houston Sunday. San Antonio enters with a four-game winning streak and has averaged 123.3 points in winning the first three meetings with Houston. The Spurs have taken the last four meetings and are 6-0 ATS in their last six Sunday contests.

        Portland Trail Blazers at Oklahoma City Thunder (-11.5, 205.5)

        Oklahoma City has had a difficult time scoring over the last two games but turned to its defense to avoid a three-game slide on Friday. The Thunder have been held under 100 points in two straight games and needed a big fourth quarter from Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook to pull out Friday’s 97-89 win at the lowly Magic. Oklahoma City has taken five straight and eight of the last 10 in the series. The favorite is 4-0-1 in the last five meetings.

        Chicago Bulls at Minnesota Timberwolves (+1, 185.5)

        The Chicago Bulls likely will play without star center Joakim Noah once again when they visit the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night. If they play the way they did Saturday night at home, it might not be an issue. Without Noah in the lineup due to plantar fasciitis, Chicago topped Indiana 87-84 to keep their slim Central Division crown hopes alive. The win pulled the Bulls within five games of the Pacers with 14 to play. Chicago is 6-1 ATS in the last seven meetings.

        Utah Jazz at Dallas Mavericks (-6, 200.5)

        The visiting Jazz will look to halt a three-game losing streak when they visit Dallas on Sunday. Utah is sitting in ninth place in the Western Conference, 1 1/2 games behind the Los Angeles Lakers for the final playoff slot and one game in front of the Mavericks. Dallas had won four straight earlier in the month to move into playoff contention but has been unable to build on that momentum, failing to win two straight and going 3-3 in its last six games. The Mavs have lost three straight to the Jazz, including two in Utah this season, but have won the last four matchups at home. The over is 5-0 in the last five meetings in Dallas.

        Brooklyn Nets at Phoenix Suns (+1.5, 188.5)

        The Suns have lost six of seven games and suffered a humiliating 117-86 home loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday. Phoenix has lost by 30 or more points in two of their last six games. Brooklyn is 2-1 on an eight-game road excursion after falling 101-95 to the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday. The Nets routed the Suns 99-79 in Brooklyn on Jan. 11 for only their third win in the last 12 meetings. Brooklyn has played over the total in its last six games overall.

        Philadelphia 76ers at Sacramento Kings (-2.5, 205)

        Philadelphia has lost 15 straight on the road, last winning on New Year's Day. The road losing streak is its longest since a franchise-record 20-game skid in 1987-88. However, the Sixers have won eight of the last nine meetings (8-1 ATS), including an 89-80 victory in Philadelphia on Feb. 1.

                  Around the rink: Sunday's NHL betting notes
                  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                  Florida Panthers at New York Islanders (-167, 5.5)

                  Probable starting goaltenders: Jacob Markstrom (FLA), Evgeni Nabokov (NYI)

                  New York has dropped three in a row following a 4-3 road victory over Florida on March 16. The Islanders nearly squandered a three-goal lead in that contest before prevailing on Casey Cizikas' goal in the third period. Cizikas' heroics aside, New York has been outscored 12-1 in the session over the last four contests. The under is 4-0 in the Panthers’ last four road games.

                  Washington Capitals at New York Rangers (-155, 5)

                  Probable starting goaltenders: Braden Holtby (WSH), Henrik Lundqvist (NYR)

                  Washington won back-to-back games in Winnipeg on Thursday and Friday to record its first consecutive road victories in over a month. The Capitals, however, lost 2-1 at Madison Square Garden on Feb. 17 and 4-1 at home on March 10. The latter contest was the last time New York scored more than three goals. The Rangers are 2-4-0 since that outing, scoring just seven times in regulation in that span. The under is 4-1 in the Capitals’ last five road games.

                  Philadelphia Flyers at Pittsburgh Penguins (-197, 6)

                  Probable starting goaltenders: Ilya Bryzgalov (PHI), Marc-Andre Fleury (PIT)

                  The Pittsburgh Penguins vie for their 12th consecutive victory and look to post the longest winning streak in the NHL this season when they host the Keystone State-rival Philadelphia Flyers. The Flyers had arguably the best chance to knock off the Penguins during their streak but allowed a three-goal, first-period lead to evaporate en route to a 5-4 loss on March 7. Philadelphia has struggled mightily on the road, dropping four straight away from Wells Fargo Center and 12 of 16 decisions overall. Pittsburgh has yielded just eight goals in its last seven games and the under is 5-0-1 in its last six.

                  Tampa Bay Lightning at Winnipeg Jets (-149, 6)

                  Probable starting goaltenders: Cedrick Desjardins (TB), Ondrej Pavelec (WPG)

                  The Lightning yielded the first four goals in both Wednesday's 4-2 loss to Toronto and Saturday's 5-3 setback to Ottawa. The teams split the first two meetings in the Sunshine State, with Tampa Bay cruising to an 8-3 win on Feb. 1. Special teams have been an issue for Winnipeg lately. The Jets are 1-for-15 on the power play over the last five games, while yielding four goals in their last 15 short-handed opportunities. The under is 10-2 in Winnipeg’s last 12 home games.

                  Vancouver Canucks at Colorado Avalanche (+122, 5.5)

                  Probable starting goaltenders: Roberto Luongo (VAN), J.S. Giguere (COL)

                  The Vancouver Canucks will conclude their three-game road trip looking for their fourth consecutive victory on Sunday when they visit the Colorado Avalanche. Roberto Luongo was in net for Vancouver’s only previous meeting with Colorado, making 24 saves in a 3-0 victory. After splitting a home-and-home series against Dallas, the Avalanche have one win in their last six games (1-5-0). Colorado has allowed at least three goals in each of those contests. The under is 4-0-1 in the last five meetings.

                  Detroit Red Wings at Anaheim Ducks (-145, 5.5)

                  Probable starting goaltenders: Jimmy Howard (DET), Jonas Hiller (ANA)

                  The Detroit Red Wings are trying to make their way back to their usual level as Stanley Cup contenders. A nice step forward would be to post back-to-back wins at the Anaheim Ducks. Detroit, which claimed the opener of the two-game set with a 5-1 triumph on Friday, has won three of its last four. Anaheim had a 12-game point streak (9-0-3) come to an end with Friday’s loss, which marked the team’s first regulation setback at home since a 5-0 loss to Vancouver on Jan. 25. The Ducks have not scored a power-play goal in any of the last six games and have surrendered at least one in three of the last four.

                  St. Louis Blues at Calgary Flames (+115, 5.5)

                  Probable starting goaltenders: Jaroslav Halak (STL), Miikka Kiprusoff (CGY)

                  The Calgary Flames return home from a winless three-game road trip to host the St. Louis Blues on Sunday. Calgary, which has won six straight in its own building, defeated the Detroit Red Wings and Nashville Predators at home by a combined 11-5 score before beginning its trek with a 4-3 loss to the Dallas Stars on Monday. St. Louis has won three straight meetings with the Flames, including a 5-2 triumph at Calgary on Feb. 15. The over is 5-0 in the Flames’ last five overall.
