Karl-Anthony Towns (New York Knicks) Under 12.5 Rebounds (-135)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As we gear up for the Knicks vs. Warriors showdown, targeting Karl-Anthony Towns for under 12.5 rebounds feels like a smart play. While Towns has been a powerhouse on the boards, averaging 12.2 rebounds across his last five games, the trend shifts when he faces the Warriors. Historically, he's managed just 9.2 rebounds per game against them, and when playing at home, that number drops even further to a mere 4. With the Knicks' interior defense tightening up lately, Towns may find it tougher to rack up those rebounds. He's hit the under in four of his last five home games, and with an expected stat value of just 11, it's hard to see him clearing that 12.5 mark against a team that's been limiting opposing bigs. All signs point to a calculated play on the under here-let's take advantage of it.

Adem Bona (Philadelphia 76ers) Over 14.5 Points + Rebounds (-127)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Philadelphia 76ers gear up to host the Portland Trail Blazers, all eyes should be on Adem Bona. He's been on an absolute tear, boasting an impressive hit rate of 100% in his last six games. Averaging 15 points and nearly 9 rebounds over those five recent games, Bona's been nothing short of a force, especially at home, where he's consistently delivered 14 points and 8 rebounds. Now, add in the fact that he tends to elevate his performance against the Trail Blazers, netting an average of 6 points and 2 rebounds more when they come to town. With the 76ers needing a strong showing to maintain their momentum, we can expect Bona to step up. Given these trends and his projected value of 17.51, betting on him to surpass 14.5 combined points and rebounds feels like a savvy move.

DeMar DeRozan (Sacramento Kings) Over 2.5 Rebounds (-179)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As DeMar DeRozan steps onto the court at home against the Utah Jazz, there's every reason to feel confident about his rebounding performance. Over his last five games, he's averaged a solid 4.4 boards, showcasing his ability to contribute across the stat sheet. When faced with the Jazz, he's been even more effective, pulling down an average of 4.4 rebounds against them lately. The Kings are expecting a fast-paced matchup, which should create more opportunities for DeRozan to crash the boards. With a hit rate of 5-for-5 in his last outings, and an impressive 15 out of 20 at home, he's clearly found a rhythm on his home court. Betting on him to grab over 2.5 rebounds feels like a smart play, especially given the implied probability of 64.1%. It's time to back DeRozan, who appears primed to make his mark once again in front of the home crowd.
