While Flagg has dazzled lately, averaging about 30.2 points and 3.6 assists over his last five games, his away performance tells a different story.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Clippers host the Mavericks, all eyes will be on Cooper Flagg. While his talent is undeniable, betting the under on his combined points and rebounds at 34.5 makes sense. Flagg's recent form shows he averages just 30.2 points and 6.2 rebounds over his last five games-numbers that don't add up to the lofty total we're targeting. When on the road, his output dips to 23.4 points and 6.8 rebounds, a trend that's hard to overlook, especially against a Mavericks team that knows how to stifle scoring. Historical data back this up: he's hit the under in 12 straight away games, and against Dallas, he's averaged just 23 points and 7.7 rebounds in their last five matchups. Given these trends, it seems prudent to expect Flagg to fall short of that 34.5 mark tonight.
