Moussa Diabate (Charlotte Hornets) Under 9.5 Rebounds (+106)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Charlotte Hornets gear up to host the Sacramento Kings, it's a prime opportunity to consider the under on Moussa Diabate's rebounding total of 9.5. While Diabate has shown promise with an average of 10.8 boards at home over his last five games, context matters. He's faced the Kings before, averaging just 5 rebounds against them at home, which is a significant drop. The Hornets' matchup dynamics could further impede his rebounding chances, especially since he's hit the under in 6 of his last 10 outings. With an expected stat value of just 8.53, it's clear that the odds aren't in his favor. At home, he's seen a hit rate of 60% over the last 20 games, but tonight's matchup suggests he'll struggle to meet that 9.5 benchmark. Look for Diabate to fall short in what promises to be a competitive contest.

LaMelo Ball (Charlotte Hornets) Under 3.5 Threes Made (+114)

As the Charlotte Hornets prepare to face off against the Sacramento Kings, all eyes are on LaMelo Ball. Despite his reputation as a sharpshooter, the numbers suggest that this might not be his night from beyond the arc. In his last five games against the Kings, he's averaged just 3.2 threes, and notably, he hasn't hit any at home against Sacramento. While his recent form shows he can knock down around 4.6 threes at home, this matchup hints at a different story. The Kings' defense has shown a knack for stifling perimeter shooters. With an expected output of just 3.21 threes, the under 3.5 is looking enticing. Given that he's hit the under in six of his last fifteen home games against them, it's worth considering that LaMelo might struggle to find his rhythm this time around.
