- DraftKings promo code gives new users $300 in bonus bets when their first $5 wager wins, available across Sunday's 30 total NBA and MLB games plus golf.
- SportsLine Projection Model targets Boston Celtics +12.5 against the Orlando Magic, with the model projecting Celtics cover in 68% of simulations despite Boston resting its top rotation players.
- Trail Blazers vs. Kings total of 228.5 is the model's second play, with simulations projecting 234 combined points and the Over hitting 56% of the time; the two teams combined for 267 points in their earlier meeting this season.
- Atlanta Braves money line (-194) is the third pick, riding Chris Sale (nine-time All-Star, former Cy Young winner) against Cleveland's Tanner Bibee, who hasn't been stretched past five innings and is 1-2 on the year.
- Combining all three picks into a parlay would yield a +472 payout ($100 risk to win $472), per the article.
- SportsLine's NBA model has returned more than $10,000 in profit for $100 bettors on top-rated picks over eight-plus seasons and entered Week 25 on a 47-20 spread-picks run dating to last season.
- The article discloses that it contains affiliate links and CBS Sports may earn a commission on sign-ups, deposits, or wagers.
Why it matters: For new DraftKings users, a $5 first bet unlocks $300 in bonus bets — a 60-to-1 bonus-to-risk ratio that lowers the cost of sampling the sportsbook; the article pairs that hook with three model-driven picks (Celtics +12.5, Blazers-Kings Over 228.5, Braves ML) that together would pay +472 as a parlay, per the source.
