Yves Missi (New Orleans Pelicans) Under 6.5 Rebounds (+102)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Sacramento Kings gear up to face the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes should be on Yves Missi's rebounding performance. While he's been solid recently, averaging just five boards in his last five games, the numbers tell an even clearer story when he's on the road. His away games have seen him pull down only five rebounds, and against the Pelicans, he's averaged 6.2 overall in recent matchups, slightly skewed by a better home performance.With an expected stat value of 5.66, it's easy to see why the under on 6.5 rebounds is a tempting prospect. Missi has hit the under in four straight games and three consecutive away efforts. The Kings' pace and spacing might limit his opportunities for those second chances against a disciplined Pelicans defense. Placing a wager on Missi to stay under 6.5 rebounds feels like a smart move here.

Jeremiah Fears (New Orleans Pelicans) Under 1.5 Threes Made (-132)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Kings face off against the Pelicans, all eyes will be on Jeremiah Fears, but I'm leaning toward the under on his three-pointers made. While he's been solid at home, his away performance tells a different story. Over his last five games on the road, he's averaging just 1.6 threes, and against the Pelicans specifically, he's only hitting about 1.0. What's more telling is that he's nailed the under in three of his last three games, and his overall hit rate on the road is only 71%. The Kings are also facing a Pelicans defense that's been formidable against the three-ball lately. With an expected stat value of just 1.1, it seems Fears might struggle to find his rhythm in this matchup. Given the trends and the stakes, betting the under on 1.5 threes feels like a smart play.
