Dylan Harper (San Antonio Spurs) Under 27.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-120)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Spurs gear up to face the Trail Blazers, all eyes will be on Dylan Harper, but there's a compelling case to be made for betting the under on his combined points, rebounds, and assists at 27.5. Over his last five games, Harper has averaged a modest 14.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 4 assists, far shy of that lofty total. Even in the comfort of home, where he typically contributes 14.4 points and 4.8 rebounds, he's only managed to hit the mark against Portland with an average of just 6 points and 3 rebounds. With his recent form showing a hit rate of 19 out of 20 at home, it's evident that the odds are stacked against him breaking through this number. The stats suggest that Harper's production will likely fall short, making the under a wise play as the Spurs look to solidify their playoff positioning.

Dylan Harper (San Antonio Spurs) Under 5.5 Assists (-125)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the San Antonio Spurs host the Portland Trail Blazers, all eyes will be on Dylan Harper. However, betting on him to exceed 5.5 assists might be a stretch. Harper has averaged just 4 assists in his last five games, and even more telling, he's only managed 2.5 against the Trail Blazers historically. At home, he's slightly better, averaging 3 assists, but that's still shy of our threshold. What's particularly striking is his recent consistency; while he's hit the over six straight times, those games haven't been against defenses as tenacious as Portland's. With the Blazers likely tightening the screws on defense, it's more plausible that Harper finds himself facilitating less and focusing on scoring. Given these dynamics, taking the under on his assists feels like the smart play. The numbers support this narrative, making it a compelling opportunity for savvy bettors.

As we look ahead to the matchup between the San Antonio Spurs and the Portland Trail Blazers, Deni Avdija's recent performances suggest a solid opportunity to bet the under on his points, rebounds, and assists combined at 39.5. While Avdija has shown flashes of brilliance, averaging 24 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 6.6 assists in his last five games, the numbers tell a different story when he's on the road. On away games, his combined stats dip to 26.8 points, 8 rebounds, and 7.8 assists, significantly lower than his recent home averages. Moreover, against the Spurs, Avdija's away numbers drop even further, with only 15.8 points and 5 assists per game. Historically, he's hit the under in 9 of his last 13 away games. Given the context and a projected stat value of just 33.37, it feels like a wise move
