New York seeks a third straight win in the NBA Finals as the Knicks host the San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden Monday night. Riding a 13-game playoff run—the second‑longest in history—the Knicks aim for a 3‑0 series lead. Karl‑Anthony Towns posted 21 points and 13 rebounds, while Victor Wembanyama finished with 29 for the Spurs. The Knicks enter as 1.5‑point favorites.

Cleveland welcomes the Yankees in the opening game of a three‑game series at Progressive Field. Aaron Judge remains sidelined with a fractured rib, leaving New York 38‑26 overall and 2‑3 without their MVP. The Guardians, 37‑30, are -131 money‑line favorites, while the SportsLine model gives the Yankees a +1.5 run‑line edge. Pitcher Gavin Williams seeks his fifth consecutive start with at least 18 outs.

The Astros head to Anaheim to play the Angels, who have captured four of six home games this month. Houston, 30‑37, is -130 on the money line and the model gives them a 70% chance to win. In the Stanley Cup Final, the Golden Knights seek to extend a double‑overtime victory, holding a 56% simulation edge. Betting volume remains high.
