Bennedict Mathurin (Indiana Pacers) Under 2.5 Assists (-189)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As we gear up for the Clippers vs. Spurs showdown, keep an eye on Bennedict Mathurin's assists total, particularly if you're feeling inclined to take the under on 2.5. Mathurin has been quietly effective but hasn't been a playmaker by nature, averaging just 1.2 assists over the last five games. Even when we narrow it down to home games, that number only creeps up to 1.4.Against the Spurs, his production dips further with an average of 1.6 assists in their last five meetings. The Spurs' defense has been stingy, limiting opponents to 2 assists in their last home games. With a remarkable 19 out of his last 20 games hitting the under, Mathurin appears to be trending in the right direction for a low assist tally. Combine this with an implied probability of 65.4%, and it's tough to ignore the value in betting the under here.

Darius Garland (Cleveland Cavaliers) Over 8.5 Rebounds + Assists (-133)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Clippers prepare to face the Spurs, all eyes should be on Darius Garland to hit the Over on rebounds and assists at 8.5. Garland has been a consistent playmaker, averaging 7.2 assists at home in his last five games. When you combine that with his 2.8 rebounds in the same span, it paints a compelling picture. Historically, he's stepped up against the Spurs, averaging 9.5 assists in their recent matchups and pulling down 3.2 boards. The Spurs' defense has been leaky, allowing their opponents an average of 9.3 assists and 3.7 rebounds when playing away. With a hit rate of 14 out of his last 20 games, including an impressive 10 out of the last 13 at home, Garland looks primed to surpass that 8.5 mark. Expect him to thrive in this matchup, making the Over a smart play.

Victor Wembanyama is poised to light up the court on March 17th, and targeting him for over 2.5 assists against the Clippers is not just a hunch-it's backed by solid numbers.

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the San Antonio Spurs gear up to face the Los Angeles Clippers, Devin Vassell is poised to make a splash on the boards. With an average of 4.6 rebounds in his last five away games, he's shown a knack for stepping up when the pressure is on. The Clippers' fast-paced style could create more opportunities for Vassell to snag those rebounds, especially given their tendency to shoot from the perimeter, which often leads to long rebounds. Historically, he's been a reliable contributor, hitting the Over 3.5 rebounds in 6 of his last 9 away matchups. Even against the Clippers, who he's faced five times recently, Vassell has averaged 2.4 rebounds-still a respectable figure considering the competition. With an expected stat value of 4.47, it looks like Vassell is ready to eclipse that 3.5 mark. Trust in his ability to deliver on the glass this Tuesday.
