Reed Sheppard (Houston Rockets) Under 3.5 Rebounds (-185)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishingReed Sheppard has been a surprising story for the Rockets this season, but when it comes to his rebounding numbers, there's an interesting trend that points toward a solid under bet on his total of 3.5 boards. First off, he's been held under this mark in 15 consecutive games, showcasing a consistent pattern that's hard to ignore. Playing against the Lakers, who employ a more perimeter-based strategy with their superstars, Sheppard might find himself less involved in the rebounding battle, especially with the likes of Anthony Davis crashing the boards. Plus, at home, he's also managed to stay under this number in all 20 of his recent games. Given these factors, coupled with an implied probability of nearly 65% for this outcome, betting on Sheppard to finish with under 3.5 rebounds feels like a smart play for this matchup.
