Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Over 17.5 Points (-175)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

When the San Antonio Spurs take the court against the Dallas Mavericks, all eyes should be on Victor Wembanyama. The young star has been nothing short of spectacular, averaging a jaw-dropping 31.2 points over his last five games. Playing at home has been a real boon for him too, where he's netting about 28.8 points per game. Against the Mavericks specifically, Wembanyama has found his rhythm, putting up an average of 22.8 points in their recent encounters, and at home, that number dips a bit to 14.3-but don't let that fool you. His current form is too electric to ignore, especially with a hit rate of 15 out of his last 16 games. With the Spurs riding high and Wembanyama's confidence soaring, betting on him to surpass 17.5 points feels like the right play. Expect fireworks!

Jalen Johnson (Atlanta Hawks) Under 17.5 Rebounds + Assists (-105)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Atlanta Hawks gear up to face the Cleveland Cavaliers, all eyes will be on Jalen Johnson, but a closer look suggests the under on his combined rebounds and assists at 17.5 is the savvy play. While he's been impressive lately, averaging 11.8 rebounds and 5.8 assists over his last five outings, his production at home tells a different story. Johnson's home averages drop to 10.6 rebounds and 9 assists, translating to about 15.6 combined. Against the Cavs, he's managed just 7.2 rebounds and 5.6 assists when playing at home, well below our threshold. With a consistent 3-for-3 hit rate on this under in his last three games, it's clear that Johnson's production may not match the heightened expectations tonight. All signs point to a performance just shy of that 17.5 mark, making this bet one worth considering.

De'Aaron Fox (San Antonio Spurs) Over 14.5 Points (-122)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Spurs gear up to face the Mavericks, all eyes should be on De'Aaron Fox to light up the scoreboard. Playing at home, Fox has been a scoring machine, averaging an impressive 16.4 points in his last five home games. But what's truly striking is his performance against the Mavericks, where he's racked up an average of 23.4 points in their last five encounters. With an overall hit rate of 11 out of his last 18 games, and an unblemished home record, Fox seems poised to surpass the 14.5-point mark with relative ease. His expected stat value of 18.41 suggests he's not just reaching, but likely exceeding this number. The Mavericks have struggled to contain dynamic guards, and with Fox riding a wave of confidence, expect him to capitalize on this matchup and keep the scoreboard ticking.
