DeMar DeRozan Over 28.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-115)
Kings vs Pelicans, 8 p.m. ET
By Chris Prince
DeRozan struggled the other night against this Pelicans team, totaling just 21 PRA, but I like his chances to bounce back tonight. In the first meeting against the Pelicans (on 12/12), he topped this number in points alone with 29, and he has shown he can score at a high clip, as evidenced by his 42 points on Monday against Dallas.
He has also delivered at least 10 rebounds & assists in 4 of his last 5 games, to go along with 21.9 points per game on the season, and he has been one of the biggest beneficiaries with De'Aaron Fox off the floor, who is now in San Antonio.
This is an elite game environment, with a close 5-point spread, a big 238.5 total, and both teams ranked in the top 10 in pace.
Pick: DeMar DeRozan Over 28.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-115)
Lauri Markkanen Over 4.5 Rebounds (-118)
Lakers vs Jazz, 9 p.m. ET
The blowout is a moderate concern, but this should be a fast-paced, high-scoring game regardless of whether Luka Doncic (questionable) plays. The game total is high (237), and Markkanen should get his normal minutes. He had an off game last time out, but that was mostly due to the blowout.
This game should be closer, and Markkanen has hit the over at this number in 6 of the last 8 games. I have Markkanen projected to go over this number at a 60% clip, making this a great bet.
Pick: Lauri Markkanen Over 4.5 Rebounds (-118)
Donovan Clingan Over 8.5 Rebounds (-110)
Trail Blazers vs Nuggets, 9 p.m. ET
I'm taking a slight risk on Clingan here, as Robert Williams is questionable for this game. However, since Deandre Ayton is out, Clingan should get decent minutes regardless.
The matchup is tough, but Portland will need his size, and Williams likely won't play more than half the game if he does. Many players are out for the Blazers, so even in a blowout, Clingan should get some run, and this should be a fast-paced game.
Pick: Donovan Clingan Over 8.5 Rebounds (-110)
