Kam Jones (Indiana Pacers) Under 4.5 Assists (+116)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Charlotte Hornets hit the road to face the Indiana Pacers, all eyes are on Kam Jones, but a closer look suggests he might fall short of the 4.5 assists mark. Jones has been steady, averaging 3.8 assists over his last five games, but his away stats tell a different story-he's only managed 4.2 assists per game on the road. Against the Pacers, he's averaged just 2 assists in their last encounters, and with that trend continuing, it's hard to see him breaking through in this matchup.While he has hit the over in three of his last four, that's a bit misleading, considering his away hit rate is a robust 15 out of 19 games overall. Still, with an expected value of just 2.76 assists, it seems wise to bank on the under as the Hornets rely more on their big men. Keep an eye on the pace of this game; if it slows, Jones could

Jalen Johnson (Atlanta Hawks) Under 17.5 Rebounds + Assists (+101)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Hawks visit Brooklyn, all eyes will be on Jalen Johnson, but don't expect him to surpass that 17.5 combined rebounds and assists mark. Johnson has been solid lately, averaging 9 boards and over 8 assists in his last five games. However, his away performance tells a different story. On the road, those numbers dip to 8.8 rebounds and 7.6 assists, and against the Nets specifically, he's averaged just 7.2 rebounds and 2 assists in their last matchup. The disparity is evident; he's only hit the over in 4 of his last 7 away games. With the Nets' defensive strategy likely focused on limiting his impact, bettors should feel confident targeting the under. With an expected stat value of just 14.43, it feels like a calculated play to ride the under on Johnson's combined total.

Kobe Brown (Indiana Pacers) Under 16.5 Points + Rebounds (-119)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Hornets take on the Pacers, all eyes are on Kobe Brown, but the numbers suggest a quieter night for him. Averaging just 11 points and 3.2 rebounds over his last five outings, it's clear he's been struggling to find his groove. Particularly on the road, where his production dips to 10.6 points and 4.6 rebounds, the matchup against Indiana could prove challenging.Against this opponent, Brown's averages drop even further; he's managed only 1 point and 0.5 rebounds per game in their last matchups away. With an overall hit rate of 13 out of 16 for going under this number, and a solid 16 of 20 away, it's hard to envision him suddenly breaking out. Given these trends, betting on Brown to stay under 16.5 points and rebounds feels like a smart play in this matchup.
