Written by: Jordan Whitlock·Checked by: Maren Holt·Updated:
Jordan Whitlock covers the four big North American leagues and college basketball. These are the sports with the most published data and the most liquid markets, so his pages focus on the information that moves a line late: injury reports, rest days, back-to-backs and starting pitchers or goalies.
What Jordan covers
- The NBA. Opening week, the NBA Cup, the futures market and the playoffs.
- The NFL. The season, the playoff picture and the Super Bowl.
- The NHL and MLB. Puck lines, run lines, goalies and starting pitchers, and the postseason brackets.
- College basketball. March Madness, seeds and the bracket.
How Jordan works
Jordan reads the official injury reports and team announcements rather than social media, and notes the time each report was published, because a line set before an injury report and one set after it are different prices. He explains spreads, totals and moneylines in American odds and converts them to decimals for readers outside North America. His picks are labelled as estimates and name the line he expects, not a quote from a sportsbook.
Reading Jordan Whitlock's picks
Jordan Whitlock writes each pick with the line he expects and the news it depends on. If a key player is listed as questionable, the pick says so and says what changes if he sits out. Check the latest injury report before you act on a Jordan Whitlock pick; in these leagues a line can move several points in the last hour. Back-to-backs, travel across time zones and a starter's pitch count are the other notes he adds when they apply, because each changes what a fair line looks like.
Pages Jordan wrote
