The Giants are 6.5 point home underdogs against the Packers but more importantly, the Over/Under is just 36.5. That indicates the oddsmakers at SI Sportsbook don’t believe there will be a lot of points in this game. Based on the spread and Over/Under the Packers have an implied score of 21.5 and the Giants’ implied score is 15. That doesn’t leave a lot of room for multiple touchdowns for New York.
Alvin Kamara said he had “lots of ideas” to bring new fans to NASCAR. And apparently one of those ideas is to roll up to Caesars Superdome in style.

For fans in rocking chairs yearning for the old days of inside-the-arc basketball, Saturday night must have been a delight, as the Lakers won the NBA’s newfangled tournament the old fashioned way.
The inaugural NBA in-season tournament wrapped on Saturday with the Lakers defeating the Pacers 123-109. LeBron James also took home some additional hardware, ultimately being named the tournament MVP.
While James was deserving of the award, leading Los Angeles to a perfect 7-0 record and averaging 26.4 points, 8.0 rebounds and 7.6 assists, there were a number of noteworthy players deserving of some love as well. Because the success of those respective teams largely hinged on each player.

Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill has popped up as one of the NFL MVP favorites this season.
However, the award has never gone to a receiver in NFL history. When asked recently if he thinks he could win the 2023 award, Hill admitted that “it’s a quarterback award. We all know that.”
Hill would rather see his quarterback Tua Tagovailoa win the award over himself as he continuously hypes up Tagovailoa this season. The receiver reiterated this sentiment when speaking with reporters Friday.
“If Tua won it, I’d be happy,” Hill said. “I’d be happier if Tua won it.

Nick Foles did not find himself on an NFL roster in 2023. So he did what all bored white people in their mid-30s do: He took up pickleball.
And he’s actually really good at it.
The former Super Bowl MVP took home two gold medals at the PPA Finals in San Clemente, Calif., over the weekend. He teamed up with his wife, Tori, and friend, Jim Davenport, to win the title in both the 3.0 mixed doubles and men’s doubles.
