Deni Avdija (Portland Trail Blazers) Under 37.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-116)

Deni Avdija has been a solid contributor lately, but facing the Denver Nuggets on the road may pose a challenge that keeps his stats in check. While he's averaged a respectable 23.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 6.4 assists over his last five games, his away performances tell a different story. He's only putting up 20 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 4.8 assists in those outings, and his recent numbers against the Nuggets show a steep drop, where he averages just 9.6 points and 4.8 rebounds when playing in Denver.Given that his overall hit rate has been impressive at 12 out of his last 16 games, we can't ignore the trend: he's hit the under in seven of his last ten on the road. With a combined expected output of 32.68, targeting Avdija for under 37.5 points, rebounds, and assists seems like a savvy play
