Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Over 2.5 Assists (-154)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As Victor Wembanyama steps onto the court against the Clippers, there's every reason to believe he'll exceed the 2.5 assists mark. The young phenom has been a playmaking force, averaging 3.4 assists over his last five games, and he's shown an even sharper edge against the Clippers, dishing out 3.8 assists per game in their recent matchups. What's more compelling is his perfect hit rate in both his last four games and away contests. Wembanyama thrives under pressure, and with the Spurs needing his creativity on the road, expect him to rise to the occasion. The implied probability of 60.6% suggests the bookmakers see this as a favorable line, and given that he's been averaging 3.57 expected assists lately, it feels like a solid bet. If he's on his game, we could see him surpassing that mark comfortably.

Julian Champagnie (San Antonio Spurs) Under 16.5 Points + Rebounds (-130)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the San Antonio Spurs take on the Los Angeles Clippers, targeting Julian Champagnie for under 16.5 points and rebounds feels like a savvy play. Despite his potential, Champagnie has averaged just 11 points and 3.2 rebounds over his last five outings, with slightly better numbers on the road-11.6 points and 4.4 rebounds-but that still falls short of our threshold. Against the Clippers, his numbers dip even further; he's only managed 9.2 points against them historically, which translates to about 10 on the road. With a hit rate of just 13 out of 17 games for the under, it's clear that when the stakes are high, he often doesn't rise to the occasion. Plus, the Clippers' defense can be stifling, which only adds to the case for him staying below that 16.5 mark. Betting the under here feels like the right move.

Darius Garland (Cleveland Cavaliers) Over 29.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-125)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Looking at Darius Garland's matchup against the Spurs, there's a compelling case for him to clear the 29.5 mark in points, rebounds, and assists. While his recent averages sit at 18 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 5.2 assists, his performance against San Antonio tells a different story. He's averaged 20 points and a respectable 9.5 assists in their last few encounters, showing his ability to elevate his game against this opponent. The Spurs have struggled defensively, allowing nearly 21 points per game to opposing guards, which bodes well for Garland's scoring opportunities. Additionally, when he's playing away, his assist numbers spike to 7.2, suggesting he's not just a scorer but also a facilitator on the road. With an expected stat value of 32.63 and a hit rate of 11 out of 19 in his last away games, Garland looks primed for a standout performance that pushes him over that threshold
