LAL D’Angelo Russell OVER 3.5 Made Threes (+122) vs. New Orleans Pelicans
- Russell went 5-of-10 from downtown in Sunday’s victory over the Pelicans.
- Russell has knocked down at least four triples in nine of his past 13 games.
- Russell has attempted double-digit threes in nine of his past 14 games – fantastic volume.
- Russell has topped tonight’s prop in two straight meetings against New Orleans.
- New Orleans allowed the seventh most made threes per game during the regular season and the fifth most to point guards.
SAC Domantas Sabonis OVER 8.5 Assists (-113) vs. Golden State Warriors
- Kings star center Domantas Sabonis has recorded at least nine assists in two straight games and eight of his past 12.
- Sabonis tallied 13 and ten assists in the past two matchups against Golden State.
- Golden State allowed the most assists per game to centers during the regular season.
NOP CJ McCollum OVER 23.5 Points (+100) vs. Los Angeles Lakers
- Pelicans point guard CJ McCollum scored 25 points against the Lakers in Sunday’s loss.
- McCollum has scored at least 24 points in seven straight games and eight of his past ten.
- LA allowed the fifth most points to point guards during the regular season.
- Brandon Ingram‘s return is a concern, but taking McCollum at plus money is tremendous value given his current form.
