Moussa Diabate (Charlotte Hornets) Under 9.5 Rebounds (-105)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Charlotte Hornets gear up to face the Sacramento Kings, targeting Moussa Diabate for under 9.5 rebounds is a savvy move. While Diabate has shown flashes of brilliance recently, averaging 10.8 boards at home, his production has notably dipped against the Kings. In their last five matchups, he's only managed an average of 5 rebounds at home against this team.Moreover, his overall consistency has been shaky; he's hit the under in four of his last ten games. With a current expected stat value of 8.53, the numbers suggest he may struggle to hit that 9.5 mark. Given the Kings' strong rebounding presence, it's likely Diabate will be contained. With home court advantage, he might feel the pressure to perform, but the data leans towards a quieter night on the glass.

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

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Charlotte Hornets gear up to face the Sacramento Kings, all eyes will be on LaMelo Ball, but this might be a night to expect less from him beyond the arc. Historically, he's been a dynamic scorer, but against the Kings, he's averaged just 3.2 threes in their last five matchups, and surprisingly, he hasn't hit a single three at home against them recently. While his overall stats show a respectable 4.8 threes per game in his last five, when we zero in on home games, this dips to 4.6. With Ball's current form against Sacramento in Charlotte being rather tepid-9 out of 15 at home hitting the under-we're leaning toward the under 3.5 threes made. Given these trends, it seems like a wise play to bank on this specific matchup setting.
