Jalen Green (Phoenix Suns) Under 24.5 Points (-278)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Phoenix Suns gear up to face the Golden State Warriors, targeting Jalen Green for under 24.5 points feels like a savvy move. Despite his scoring potential, Green has averaged just 20 points over his last five outings, and even less against the Warriors, clocking in at only 9.6 points in their recent matchups. Playing at home, he slightly ups his game to 20.4 points, but the Suns' team dynamics indicate he won't be the primary scoring option tonight. With an impressive 14 out of his last 17 home games hitting the under, the trends are firmly in our favor. Add to that the expected stat value of just 14.91 points, and it's clear that this line is set too high. Given the Warriors' defensive intensity, it's hard to envision Green breaking through for a big night.

Draymond Green (Golden State Warriors) Under 7.5 Assists (-278)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Warriors gear up to face the Suns, all eyes will be on Draymond Green, but not necessarily for his playmaking prowess. While he's averaged around 8 assists recently, a closer look at the matchup reveals a different story. Over the last five games, he's only managed 6.6 assists on the road, and against the Suns, that number dips significantly to just 3.4. With the intensity of playoff basketball, teams often clamp down on playmakers, and Green's assist numbers reflect that trend. He's hit the under on this prop in 13 of his last 17 away games, which is a telling stat given the Suns' defensive prowess. With an expected stat value of 4.6, taking the under on 7.5 assists feels like a savvy move. The numbers suggest a low output, and in this high-stakes environment, it's hard to see him breaking past that mark.

Gui Santos (Golden State Warriors) Under 20.5 Points + Rebounds (-222)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Golden State Warriors face off against the Phoenix Suns, all eyes will be on Gui Santos. However, betting on Santos to score over 20.5 combined points and rebounds seems risky. Over his last five games, he's averaging just 14.8 points and 4.8 rebounds, which falls far below that threshold. Away from home, his numbers dip even further, with averages of 11.8 points and 6.4 rebounds. Even more telling is his history against the Warriors, where he's managed only 7.2 points and 4.2 rebounds per game. The Suns' defensive pressure will likely keep Santos in check, especially considering he's hit the under in six of his last eight away games. With an implied probability of 69% for this under bet, it's a smart play to expect Santos to stay below that 20.5 mark as he struggles to find his rhythm in this matchup.
