Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look ahead to the Clippers' matchup against the Warriors, targeting Kawhi Leonard for under 9.5 rebounds makes a lot of sense. Despite his superstar status, Kawhi's recent performances have shown a trend leaning towards fewer boards. Over his last five games, he's averaged just 6.4 rebounds, a figure that becomes even more telling when you consider he's faced the Warriors recently, pulling down only 8.4 per game against them. The Clippers will be at home, but it hasn't translated into a rebound surge for Kawhi; he's still at 6.4 on his home turf. With Leonard's hit rate firmly at 100% for this under in his last 20 outings, the odds appear stacked in our favor. As he continues to focus on scoring and playmaking, we can confidently back the under for what looks to be a smart play in this matchup.
