Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Milwaukee Bucks gear up to face the Indiana Pacers, eyes should be on Ivica Zubac to surpass the 13.5 points mark. Zubac has been on a scoring tear lately, averaging 17 points over his last five games. Even more impressive, at home, he's notched 18.2 points per game, showing he thrives in familiar territory. While his recent average against the Pacers sits at 12.4, he's consistently exceeded that number against weaker defenses, boasting a hit rate of 17 out of 19 games overall.

With a model edge suggesting an expected value of 16.75 points, betting on him to go over 13.5 feels like a solid play.

Dennis Schroder (Detroit Pistons) Over 5.5 Rebounds + Assists (-135)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look ahead to the matchup between the Cavaliers and Mavericks, Dennis Schroder stands out as a compelling prop bet for over 5.5 combined rebounds and assists. In recent outings, Schroder has been quietly effective, averaging 3.8 assists and 2.8 rebounds over his last five games. While those numbers might seem modest, against a Mavericks team that struggles defensively, particularly in limiting assists, we can expect him to step up. Historically, he's averaged 5.6 assists against Dallas, while their opponents have averaged just 4.2 assists against them-Schroder could easily capitalize on this trend.Moreover, his hit rate in home-away games is solid, with a 60% success rate over his last 20 games. The combination of his expected stat value of 7.5 and the Cavaliers' overall need for playmakers sets the stage for Schroder's pivotal contributions, making this prop a savvy bet.

Isaiah Hartenstein (Oklahoma City Thunder) Under 20.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-125)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Thunder take on the Timberwolves, all eyes will be on Isaiah Hartenstein, but betting on him to eclipse 20.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists could be a risky move. Over his last five games, Hartenstein has averaged just 5.4 points, 6 rebounds, and 2.4 assists overall, which falls well short of that threshold. Even at home, where he's had a slight uptick in production, his average still hovers around the low double digits.Historically, he's struggled against Minnesota, managing only 6.8 points and 6 rebounds in their last matchups. With a solid hit rate of 14-0 recently, the under seems to be a smart play here-especially considering his expected stat value sits at just 17.05. As he faces a tough Timberwolves defense, betting the under on Hartenstein feels like the right call.

James Harden (LA Clippers) Over 28.5 Points + Assists (-125)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Mavericks gear up to face the Cavaliers, all eyes are on James Harden, especially when it comes to his Points + Assists total. With an expected stat value of 31.29, he's been performing at a level that suggests he's ready to light up the scoreboard. Over his last five games, Harden has averaged an impressive 16.2 points and 9.2 assists. Against the Mavericks, he's upped his game even further, averaging 20.4 points and 9.6 assists in their recent matchups. Moreover, Harden has hit the over on this prop in 15 of his last 19 games, showcasing his reliability. With Cleveland's defense allowing opponents around 19.5 points and 11 assists per game, Harden should find plenty of opportunities. If he's on the court, targeting the over on 28.5 feels like a savvy play in what promises to be an exciting matchup.

Justin Edwards (Philadelphia 76ers) Over 10.5 Points (-135)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Philadelphia 76ers host the Portland Trail Blazers, all eyes should be on Justin Edwards. He's been on a scoring tear, averaging 17 points over his last five games, and even more impressive, 11.4 points at home. The matchup against Portland is particularly favorable; Edwards has consistently lit them up, averaging 16 points against them in their last five encounters. With a hit rate of 4 out of 5 in his recent outings, confidence in his scoring ability is at an all-time high. Add to that the fact he's been perfect in his last three home games, and it's clear he thrives in front of the Philly crowd. Given Edwards' expected stat value of 13.08, the over on 10.5 seems not just achievable, but likely. This looks like a prime opportunity to back him to exceed that threshold once again.
