As the Nuggets head to Phoenix, we're looking at Nikola Jokic's rebounds and assists line set at 24.5-a number that feels a touch high given the context. In his last five away games, he's averaged a solid 15.2 rebounds and 10.6 assists, but those numbers dip when facing the Suns. Historically, Jokic has pulled down around 10 boards and dished out 9.8 assists against Phoenix on the road, suggesting that the Suns' defense knows how to limit his impact. Plus, in his last 20 away games, he's only cleared this 24.5 mark 65% of the time. With a projected stat value of just 21.19, it looks like the odds are pointing to a tighter game where Jokic may struggle to hit that threshold. As the Nuggets face off against a formidable Suns squad, going under on Jokic feels like the right play.

As we gear up for the showdown between the Charlotte Hornets and the Sacramento Kings, Malik Monk stands out as a prime candidate for the Under on his combined points, rebounds, and assists at 22.5. Despite his recent scoring average of 17.6 points, Monk's away performances have been telling-he's only mustered around 10.8 points per game on the road. When facing the Hornets, his historical numbers dip even further, with an average of just 11.6 points against them. Adding to the narrative, Monk's last four away games have all hit the Under, showcasing a trend that's hard to ignore. With an average of 1.4 rebounds and 3 assists away from home, it's clear that he's been more of a supporting player than a main scorer. The cumulative data suggests this total feels a touch too high, making the Under a savvy play in this matchup.

As the Magic head to Cleveland, all eyes will be on Paolo Banchero, but betting the under on his combined points and rebounds seems wise. Sure, he's been solid lately, averaging about 25 points and 6.4 rebounds over his last five games. However, his away performances tell a different story. He's managed just 24.6 points and 8.2 boards in those matchups-solid, but not enough to hit that lofty 33.5 mark.Furthermore, when facing the Cavaliers, Banchero's stats dip even more, averaging around 27.8 points against them. With the Cavs boasting a top-tier defense, this matchup could stifle his production further. The numbers suggest he's likely to fall short of that total, making the under a compelling option as he navigates a challenging road environment.
Malik Monk (Sacramento Kings) Under 19.5 Points + Assists (-112)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As Malik Monk steps into Charlotte on March 24, the stage may not be as favorable as he'd like. While he's shown flashes of brilliance, the numbers suggest a different story for this matchup. Averaging just 10.8 points and 3 assists on the road lately, Monk's production drops significantly when away from the comfort of home. Against the Hornets, he's averaged 11.6 points with only 4.4 assists in their past encounters, and when playing in Charlotte, those numbers dip further. With Monk hitting the under in 7 of his last 10 games and maintaining a perfect 4-for-4 under streak in his most recent away contests, it's clear that the odds are stacked against him. Expect a performance that falls short of the 19.5 mark as Monk faces a tough Hornets defense and an environment that hasn't been kind to him.
Malik Monk (Sacramento Kings) Under 17.5 Points + Rebounds (-104)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Kings gear up to face the Hornets, all eyes are on Malik Monk, but betting on him to hit the Over on 17.5 points and rebounds might not be the best play. His recent away performances tell a different story-averaging just 10.8 points and a mere 1.4 rebounds on the road. With his numbers dipping when facing Charlotte, he's managed only 11.6 points and 2.5 boards against them away from home. Moreover, Monk's last four road games have seen him hit this Under consistently, going 4-for-4. With the Hornets' defense tightening up recently, it's hard to envision Monk breaking through this ceiling. Given all these factors, the Under seems to be the safer bet here. Sometimes, a player's recent form speaks louder than past glories, and Monk's current trajectory suggests he won't be hitting that mark tonight.
Malik Monk (Sacramento Kings) Under 4.5 Assists (-145)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Sacramento Kings prepare to face the Charlotte Hornets, all eyes will be on Malik Monk. While the dynamism he brings is undeniable, betting on him to dish out more than 4.5 assists could be a stretch. Over his last five games, Monk averages just four assists, and when he's on the road, that number dips to three. Against the Hornets specifically, he's averaged 4.4 assists, but again, that drops to three when playing away. With an impressive hit rate of 12 out of 17 in his last outings, Monk has shown a tendency to fall short of this mark, especially away from home-he's hit the under in each of his last four road games. With this data in mind, it seems wise to lean toward the under at 4.5 assists for Monk in this matchup.
