Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Here's the scoop for Monday's showdown between the Clippers and the Pelicans. Our man Kris Dunn has been struggling to hit the high notes recently. His past five games paint a sobering picture, averaging just 5.8 points and 3 rebounds. Even on away turf, he barely manages to nudge those numbers, with point and rebound averages of 5.6 and 3.6 respectively. When matched against the Clippers, Dunn's performance has been even more underwhelming: a paltry 8.6 points and 2.4 rebounds on average. His total combined score consistently falls short of the 13.5 mark - a trend that's likely to continue. The numbers are screaming one thing: bet the under on Dunn. With his current form, it's a solid play. Don't let the glitz of LA fool you, folks. This Monday, it's all about Dunn coming up short.
