Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

In tonight's clash between the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Lakers, targeting Jake LaRavia for under 1.5 threes made feels like a savvy move. While LaRavia has shown flashes of brilliance at home, his recent away performance tells a different story. Over his last five games, he's averaging just 0.4 threes made on the road, which can be concerning in a high-stakes matchup. Historically, against the Lakers, he's managed only 1.2 threes per game, but that number drops to 1.8 when playing away. With a solid away hit rate of 9 for his last 9 games, it's clear he's been more of a facilitator than a shooter. Plus, with an expected stat value of just 1, it's tough to see LaRavia hitting that 1.5 mark tonight. This combination of factors gives us a compelling case to lean into the under; the numbers are simply

As the Lakers gear up to face the Warriors, all eyes will be on Luke Kennard and his three-point shooting. Despite a solid track record against Golden State, the numbers reveal a compelling case for the under on 2.5 threes made. Over his last five games overall, Kennard has averaged just 1.2 threes, and even on the road, he's only notched 1.6. Yes, he has hit 2.8 threes against the Warriors in recent matchups, but that's not a consistent trend, especially in the high-pressure environment of Chase Center.Moreover, Kennard's recent form has been telling. He's gone 4-for-4 in hitting the under on this line in his last four away games. With the Warriors' stifling defense and the intensity of playoff atmospheres, it's reasonable to expect him to fall short again. Betting the under presents a savvy opportunity to capitalize on these trends.
