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

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When looking at Yves Missi's rebounding numbers ahead of the Kings' clash with the Pelicans, there are compelling reasons to lean towards the Under on 6.5 rebounds. While he's shown flashes of potential, averaging just 5 boards over his last five games, the context is crucial. He's playing away, where his numbers dip slightly, and against the Pelicans, he's managed an average of 6.2 rebounds in their recent matchups, but only 5 away from home.Interestingly, Missi has hit the Under in his last four outings, including a perfect 3-for-3 on the road. With an expected stat value of just 5.66, it feels like a strategic play to bet against him exceeding that 6.5 threshold. The Pelicans are not a pushover on the glass either, which should make this Under even more enticing as Missi navigates a challenging matchup.

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

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Kings face off against the Pelicans, all eyes will be on Jeremiah Fears, but a closer look suggests that betting on him to hit under 1.5 threes could be wise. Despite his recent away form averaging 1.6 threes, he's only managed to sink just one against the Pelicans in their last matchup. The pressure of playing in New Orleans could amplify his struggles; historically, he's only hit 1.0 three-pointer when on the road against them.Moreover, while Fears has hit the mark in recent games, with a perfect 3-for-3 in his last outings, we can't ignore his broader trend-averaging just 1.1 threes overall in his last five games. With the home court advantage for Sacramento and the Pelicans' defensive intensity, it seems prudent to take a shot on the under here. It's a smart play that aligns with current trends and matchup dynamics.
