Ausar Thompson (Detroit Pistons) Over 19.5 Points + Rebounds (+276)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Pistons prepare to host the Bucks, all eyes should be on Ausar Thompson, especially with the Over 19.5 for points and rebounds. Despite averaging 8.4 points and 6.2 rebounds over his last five games, there's a noticeable uptick when he plays at home-9.4 points and 5.8 rebounds. Against Milwaukee, he's found a rhythm, averaging 10.8 points and 6.4 rebounds in their last five meetings at home. While his recent hit rate of 2 out of 7 may raise eyebrows, the potential for a breakout game in front of the home crowd is tantalizing. The Bucks defense can be exploited, and with the stakes high, expect Ausar to rise to the occasion. Given the context and his home performance against this opponent, betting on him to exceed 19.5 seems like a savvy move.
