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

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Pistons prepare to host the Pelicans, all eyes will be on Jalen Duren, particularly when it comes to his rebounding numbers. With a line set at 12.5, there's a compelling case to take the under. Duren has been on a bit of a rollercoaster lately; while he's shown flashes of brilliance, he's only managed to top that mark once in his last five games. At home, he has a solid hit rate, but against a Pelicans team that's been surprisingly adept at limiting opposing bigs, Duren's opportunities may dwindle. The young center's expected stat value hovers around 10.93, painting a clearer picture of a player who may find himself just shy of that threshold. Given the matchup dynamics and his recent performance, betting the under feels like a savvy move in this clash of teams.

Tobias Harris (Detroit Pistons) Under 1.5 Threes Made (-135)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Pistons gear up to host the Pelicans, Tobias Harris finds himself in a tricky spot for three-pointers. Despite a strong home court presence, he's averaged just 1.4 threes per game at home recently, and against New Orleans, that number dips to a mere one per game. The Pelicans' defense has a knack for tightening up against him, limiting him to only 0.4 threes in their last five matchups. With Harris hitting the Under in 12 of his last 15 games, the signs are pointing to another low-output night from beyond the arc. While he may have the occasional hot hand, the matchup and current form suggest he'll struggle to eclipse 1.5 threes. It's a calculated bet that aligns perfectly with recent trends, making the Under an enticing play as he faces off against a tough New Orleans defense.

Daniss Jenkins (Detroit Pistons) Under 1.5 Threes Made (+108)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Detroit Pistons face off against the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes will be on Daniss Jenkins, but not for the reasons many might expect. While Jenkins has shown flashes of potential, his recent shooting from beyond the arc suggests a more cautious approach is warranted. Over his last 19 games, he's hit the under on 1.5 threes an impressive 16 times. At home, that trend sharpens even further, as he's only managed to knock down more than one three in just 7 of his last 8 appearances. The Pistons will likely focus on driving to the basket against a Pelicans defense that struggles with interior presence, which could limit Jenkins' opportunities from deep. With an expected stat value of just 1.37 and an implied probability of 48.1% for hitting that threshold, the under on Jenkins feels like a savvy play to make in this matchup.
