Devin Carter (Sacramento Kings) Under 4.5 Rebounds (+102)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

In the upcoming matchup between the Orlando Magic and Sacramento Kings, targeting Devin Carter for under 4.5 rebounds feels like a smart move. Carter has been solid lately, averaging 3.8 rebounds in his last five games, but when you look specifically at his performances away from home, that number dips to just 3.6. Against the Kings, he's struggled even more, averaging only 2.7 rebounds per game, and astonishingly, he hasn't grabbed a single board in his last two games in Sacramento. With a hit rate of just 18% away in the last 20 games, the odds are stacked against him. The data suggests he's likely to fall short of that 4.5 mark, making the under a compelling bet. It's a combination of his current form and the tough matchup that leads us to believe less is more in this case.

Malik Monk (Sacramento Kings) Under 2.5 Threes Made (-135)

As Malik Monk steps onto the court in Orlando, the numbers suggest he may struggle to find his rhythm from deep. While he's shown flashes of brilliance this season, his recent away games tell a different story. Averaging just 0.8 threes made in his last five road outings, Monk has been largely subdued outside of Sacramento. Facing the Magic, a team that's managed to limit perimeter shooting effectively, he's averaged only 1.2 threes per game in their past exchanges. Though he's hit the mark three out of his last four games overall, it's crucial to note that only one of those was on the road. With the stakes high but the odds stacked against him in this matchup, taking the under on Monk's 2.5 threes feels like a savvy play as the Kings travel east.

Malik Monk (Sacramento Kings) Under 2.5 Rebounds (+116)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Sacramento Kings gear up to face the Orlando Magic, all eyes will be on Malik Monk, but betting on him to grab more than 2.5 rebounds might not be the smartest move. In his last five games, Monk has averaged just 2 rebounds, and when he's on the road, that number dips to 1.8. Against the Magic, he's managed only 1.2 boards per game in their recent matchups, and even his away games against them yield just 2 rebounds on average. With a solid track record of hitting the under in this category-3 out of his last 4 games-it's clear Monk's rebounding isn't exactly trending upwards. The Kings will be looking to capitalize on different aspects of their game, and with Monk's focus likely elsewhere, betting on the under feels like a savvy play.
