Nikola Jokic 25+ Points/Denver to Win (+120)
Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets are nine-point road favorites against the Portland Trail Blazers, whom Jokic has scored 27 and 29 against this season. He’s surpassed 25 points in 13 of his last 18 games. At +120, there is a ton of value here.
Trae Young 25+ Points/Atlanta to Win (+140)
The Atlanta Hawks are seven-point home favorites against the Toronto Raptors tonight, and the Raps are on the second night of a back-to-back and traveling from Toronto. It's not an ideal spot for them. In three previous games against the Raptors, Trae Young has had 30, 35, and 38-point outings, so at +140 for him to get 25 points in a winning effort, we’re getting a steal.
Donovan Mitchell 25+ Points/Cleveland to Win (+135)
The Cleveland Cavaliers are on the road tonight against the Philadelphia 76ers, who have been dreadful without Joel Embiid. However, the 76ers won against Cleveland a week and a half ago, ending the Cavs' nine-game win streak. I expect extra motivation from them tonight, especially considering they are in a bounce-back spot after their loss last night. Donovan Mitchell has had 25 points in ten of his previous 11 games, including a 36-point showing against the 76ers. At +135, this is incredible value.
Paul George 25+ Points/ LA to Win (+205)
The LA Clippers are coming off an ugly loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder last night, and despite this being a back-to-back, the Clippers are too talented of a team to lose to this Grizzlies team. Paul George has averaged nearly 29 points per game across three games against Memphis this season. With this at +205, there's value here.
Chet Holmgren 15+ Points/OKC to Win (-110)
Despite this being at -110, I think this might be the night's best bet. The Oklahoma City Thunder are 16-point favorites at home against the Washington Wizards, who allow the most points to opposing centers, evidenced by Chet Holmgren’s 31-point outing against them previously. I’ll make this a two-unit wager, but I also find value at +225 for Chet to have 20+ in a win.
Nikola Jokic 25+ Points/Denver to Win (+120)
Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets are nine-point road favorites against the Portland Trail Blazers, whom Jokic has scored 27 and 29 against this season. He’s surpassed 25 points in 13 of his last 18 games. At +120, there is a ton of value here.
Trae Young 25+ Points/Atlanta to Win (+140)
The Atlanta Hawks are seven-point home favorites against the Toronto Raptors tonight, and the Raps are on the second night of a back-to-back and traveling from Toronto. It's not an ideal spot for them. In three previous games against the Raptors, Trae Young has had 30, 35, and 38-point outings, so at +140 for him to get 25 points in a winning effort, we’re getting a steal.
