Amen Thompson (Houston Rockets) Under 7.5 Rebounds (+105)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishingWhen the Houston Rockets take on the Los Angeles Lakers, all eyes will be on Amen Thompson, but betting on him to hit the under for rebounds at 7.5 seems wise. While Thompson has shown flashes of brilliance, his recent numbers tell a different story. Averaging 7.2 boards over his last five games, he's slightly over that mark, but it's crucial to consider the context. On the road, his average dips to 7.8, and against the Lakers, he's managed just 7 rebounds per game in their recent matchups. With the Lakers boasting a formidable frontcourt and being at home, Thompson might find it tough to grab those extra boards. Given that he's hit this under 4 times in his last 8 away games, the odds are leaning in favor of this under bet. It's a smart play to consider as he navigates a challenging matchup.
