Follow The Money | April 23, 2026 | Hour 3

In this episode of VSiN Best Bets, hosts Mitch Moss and Pauly Howard dive deep into the NBA and NHL playoffs, emphasizing the importance of following the money in sports betting. They analyze key injuries—Aaron Gordon’s absence for the Denver Nuggets and Jalen Williams’ hamstring issue for OKC—as pivotal factors that shift odds and create betting opportunities. The discussion centers on the Timberwolves’ potential to capitalize on Denver’s weakened roster, with a half-unit bet placed on Minnesota as an underdog. The hosts also explore aggressive betting angles, including a speculative Western Conference Finals matchup between the Wolves and Lakers, driven by injury cascades and roster vulnerabilities. As the NFL Draft approaches, the conversation shifts to insider intel, with Peter Schrager’s prediction that Ty Simpson will be a first-round pick drawing strong reactions. Despite Simpson’s odds at minus 340, the hosts debate whether the market is underpricing his value, especially given the Rams’ lack of a clear need at 13th overall. They also examine financial logic behind team decisions, questioning why the Cardinals might pass on a high-priced running back like Love when they could target a quarterback for future development. The episode closes with a focus on live betting potential, prop plays, and the importance of real-time data, all while promoting VSIN Pro and the spring special offer.
