Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Clippers gear up to face the Timberwolves, Kris Dunn's production seems ripe for a dip, particularly when it comes to combining points and assists. Over his last five games, he's averaged just 5.8 points and a mere 1.2 assists, which paints a clear picture of his current role. Against the Timberwolves specifically, his average drops even further, with just 3.6 points and 1.6 assists per game. Looking at his recent performances, Dunn has hit the Under on this combined total in five of his last six outings, including a perfect 4-for-4 when considering home/away splits. The Clippers have been defensively solid, and with Dunn struggling to find his rhythm, betting on him to stay below 10.5 sounds like a savvy move. Expecting him to surpass that mark against a Timberwolves team that knows how to limit playmakers? That's a tall order.

Jaden McDaniels is primed for a standout performance on the boards against the Clippers. His recent form has been nothing short of impressive, averaging 6.4 rebounds in his last five away games. That's a significant jump compared to his overall average of 4.6, highlighting his tendency to step up on the road. Moreover, McDaniels has hit the over on 3.5 rebounds in 16 out of his last 18 away contests-a staggering success rate. With the Timberwolves facing the Clippers, who have struggled to contain opposing forwards, McDaniels has a golden opportunity. Historically, he's also managed to snag an average of 3.8 rebounds against the Clippers away from home. With an expected stat value of 4.58 and a hit rate of 3/3 in his last three outings, it's hard to ignore the momentum he's carrying into this matchup. Bet on McDaniels to clear that 3.5 mark
Donte DiVincenzo (Minnesota Timberwolves) Under 7.5 Rebounds + Assists (-145)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Clippers prepare to host the Timberwolves, Donte DiVincenzo's recent performance suggests a strong case for betting the under on his rebounds plus assists at 7.5. Over the last five games, he's averaged just 2.8 rebounds and 3 assists overall, which falls short of the mark. When playing away, those numbers dip slightly to 3 rebounds and 2 assists. Against the Timberwolves specifically, he's averaged just 4.2 rebounds and 2 assists in their last five encounters, with away figures further shrinking to 2.8 and 2.5. It's worth noting that he's hit the under in four of his last five games on the road, showcasing a trend that can't be ignored. With the Clippers likely to rely on their stars, DiVincenzo might find himself with limited opportunities. This matchup paints a clear picture, making the under an enticing option.
