Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Luka Doncic has been a dazzling force in the NBA, but Tuesday's matchup against the Houston Rockets presents a unique challenge that makes taking the under on his assists at 8.5 quite tempting. While Doncic typically lights up the court, his recent numbers tell a different story. Over his last five games, he's averaging just 5.8 assists overall and 6 on the road. When looking specifically at his performance against the Rockets, he's averaged 7.4 assists, but this drops to 8.3 when playing away. Moreover, Doncic's recent hit rate shows he's gone under this mark in 9 of his last 12 games, and he's been particularly effective at limiting assists in away matchups, hitting the under in his last four road games. The Rockets' defense will likely tighten the screws on Doncic, making it hard for him to hit that 8.5 mark. So, betting the under feels like a savvy move here.
