Daniss Jenkins (Detroit Pistons) Under 7.5 Assists (-149)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Philadelphia 76ers gear up to face the Detroit Pistons, all eyes will be on Daniss Jenkins, but my money is on him falling short of 7.5 assists. Jenkins has shown a remarkable consistency-over the last 20 away games, he's hit the under on this line every single time, which is no small feat. In fact, he's averaging just 5.48 assists, well below the mark we're targeting. The 76ers' offensive scheme often relies on multiple playmakers, which can limit Jenkins' opportunities to rack up assists. In their last four outings, he's only surpassed this line once. With the pressure of playing away and facing a Pistons team that's been surprisingly resilient on defense, I expect Jenkins to struggle to find his rhythm. The smart play here is to bank on him staying under that 7.5 threshold.

Jalen Duren (Detroit Pistons) Under 34.5 Points + Rebounds (-111)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Detroit Pistons head to Philadelphia, Jalen Duren's performance warrants a closer look, particularly in the points and rebounds department. Averaging 23.8 points and 12 rebounds over his last five games, Duren has shown flashes of brilliance, but there's a catch. When facing off against the 76ers, he typically nets just 10.4 points and pulls down about 9 rebounds-numbers that don't bode well for hitting that lofty 34.5 mark. On the road, his stats dip further, with averages of 23.2 points and 10 rebounds. The trend becomes even clearer as he's hit the under in 5 out of his last 7 away games. Given the 76ers' strong defensive presence, Duren is likely to find the going tough. For a player in a challenging matchup, taking the under seems like a smart play.

Jalen Duren (Detroit Pistons) Under 11.5 Rebounds (+103)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

When Jalen Duren takes the court against the Philadelphia 76ers, all eyes will be on his rebounding prowess. Yet, backing him to go under 11.5 boards could be the savvy play. While he's averaged an impressive 12 rebounds over his last five games, his away performances tell a different story, with just 10 per game on the road. Against the 76ers, Duren's average dips to 9 rebounds, and when playing in Philadelphia, he's managed only 10.2. With a hit rate of 10 out of his last 14 games, and 6 of 7 away, it's clear the matchup isn't as favorable as it appears. The big men of the 76ers, particularly Joel Embiid, will make securing rebounds a tough task. This game could see Duren struggle to find his rhythm on the boards, making the under a compelling choice.
