As Malik Monk gears up to face his former team, the Charlotte Hornets, it's worth considering the under on his combined points, rebounds, and assists, set at 22.5. Despite his undeniable talent, Monk's recent away performances tell a different story. Averaging just 10.8 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 3 assists in his last five road games, he's been significantly less impactful outside Sacramento.Against the Hornets, he's managed only 11.6 points on average, and given his current trend, it's hard to see him breaking out of that mold. With a solid hit rate of 4 for 4 on the under in his last away outings, and an expected stat value of just 14.99, the odds favor a quiet night for Monk. The combination of his away game struggles and the familiarity of facing former teammates could lead to a subdued performance, making the under a smart play here.

When the Sacramento Kings face off against the Charlotte Hornets, all eyes will be on Malik Monk. However, if you're leaning toward the under on Monk's combined points and assists at 19.5, there's plenty of reason to feel confident. Monk has been averaging just 10.8 points and 3 assists on the road in his last five games, which doesn't quite stack up to the mark we're targeting. Historically, he's struggled against the Hornets, averaging only 11.6 points in their recent encounters. Plus, he's managed to clear this line in only 4 of his last 10 games, showing a solid trend toward the under, especially away from home. Given that Monk's role can fluctuate, betting on him to stay under 19.5 seems prudent-especially with the backdrop of his recent numbers. This matchup could see him underperforming yet again.

As the Nuggets travel to Phoenix, it's a prime opportunity to consider Nikola Jokic for the under on his combined rebounds and assists, set at 23.5. Now, while Jokic is a statistical marvel, recent trends suggest a slight decline in his production on the road. Over his last five away games, he's averaging just 15.2 rebounds and assists combined, notably below the mark we're targeting. The Suns, known for their defensive prowess, have also held Jokic to an average of 10 rebounds and 9.8 assists in their recent matchups. This suggests a tighter contest that may limit his usual contributions. Plus, with Jokic hitting the under in three of his last four games, the odds are leaning in our favor. Given all this, it's smart to back the under here; the numbers tell a story of a challenging game ahead for the MVP.
