Daniss Jenkins (Detroit Pistons) Under 1.5 Threes Made (+110)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Detroit Pistons gear up to face the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes will be on Daniss Jenkins. While he's talented, betting the under on his three-pointers made at 1.5 feels like the savvy move. In his last 20 games, Jenkins has only hit this mark three times, showcasing his struggles from beyond the arc with a hit rate of just 15%. Even more telling is his performance at home, where he's only managed to sink more than one three-pointer in one of his last nine games. The Pistons are often focused on driving to the rim rather than settling for long-range shots, which could further limit Jenkins' opportunities. The numbers suggest a perfect storm of factors working against him, making this under play a compelling choice. With an implied probability of just 47.6%, it's a calculated risk worth taking.

Jalen Duren (Detroit Pistons) Under 12.5 Rebounds (-135)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

When looking at Jalen Duren's rebounding prop against the Pelicans, the under 12.5 offers a compelling value. Duren has been a force on the boards, but recent trends suggest a dip in his numbers. Over the last six games, he's only cleared this line once, hitting the under in five of those matchups. Even on his home court, where he has a modest success rate of 2 out of 3 games hitting the over, the odds are leaning towards him struggling against a New Orleans team that's been surprisingly effective at boxing out opposing bigs. With an expected rebound total around 10.87, it's clear that while he's capable, the matchup may keep him under that 12.5 threshold. In a game where every possession counts, look for Duren to be more focused on positioning than piling up rebounds.
