POR Deandre Ayton OVER 37.5 PTS + REB (-106) vs. Washington Wizards
Regular readers may have noticed that I consistently recommend opposing centers against the Washington Wizards, and for good reason. The team ranks dead last in points allowed and rebounds to the position. Tonight is no different, as Washington will have its hands full trying to slow down Portland’s Deandre Ayton. After a slow start to his Blazers tenure, Ayton has enjoyed a solid second half and appears to be a core part of the organization’s future. The 25-year-old dominated Washington in the first meeting, recording 23 points and 16 rebounds in a losing effort. Having topped tonight’s prop in five of his past ten games, I think Ayton feasts.
LAC Paul George OVER 3.5 Made Threes (+120) vs. Utah Jazz
No team allows more made threes per game than the Utah Jazz. That bodes well for LA Clippers star forward Paul George, who has knocked down at least four triples in six of his past ten games and will continue to be the focal point offensively with Kawhi Leonard (knee) set to miss a second straight contest. George has been lights out from downtown this season, shooting 41.2%, tying his career high.
OKC Luguentz Dort OVER 13.5 Points (-128) vs. Indiana Pacers
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Luguentz Dort hasn’t shot the ball well lately, but the 24-year-old is still coming off back-to-back 15-point performances. OKC will again be without superstar Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (quad), leaving Dort in an excellent spot to produce against a Pacers squad, allowing the second most points per game and the second most points to power forwards.
