Bennedict Mathurin (Indiana Pacers) Under 2.5 Assists (-154)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look ahead to the matchup between the Clippers and Spurs, targeting Bennedict Mathurin for under 2.5 assists feels spot on. His average over the last five games sits at just 1.2 assists, and when he's played at home, it only nudges up to 1.4. Against the Spurs, who typically allow around 2 assists per game to opposing players, Mathurin's numbers suggest he might struggle to hit that mark. With a remarkable hit rate of 19 out of the last 20 games falling under this threshold, it's clear he's been consistent in not eclipsing 2.5. This trend continues in his last eleven home appearances, where he hit the under ten times. With all these factors in play, betting on Mathurin to stay below 2.5 assists seems not just wise, but almost inevitable.

Kris Dunn (LA Clippers) Under 15.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-130)

When considering Kris Dunn for the under on points, rebounds, and assists combined, the numbers tell a compelling story. Over his last five games, Dunn has averaged just 5.8 points, 3 rebounds, and 1.2 assists-totaling a mere 10.85, well below the 15.5 threshold we're targeting. Even more concerning is his performance against the Spurs, where he's managed just 6.8 points on average. With the Clippers facing the Spurs, it's worth noting that Dunn has been in a particularly limited role lately, reflected by an impressive 12-for-13 hit rate on unders in his last outings. Additionally, San Antonio's defense has been stingy, allowing an average of only 10.2 points to opposing guards. Given these stats and Dunn's current trajectory, betting the under seems like a smart play to make this matchup more enticing.

Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Over 2.5 Assists (-182)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Spurs roll into L.A. to face the Clippers, all eyes should be on Victor Wembanyama, especially when it comes to his assist numbers. Over his last five games, he's averaged 3.4 assists, showcasing his ability to create opportunities even as a rookie. Notably, his assists against the Clippers have been even better, with an average of 3.8 when matched up against them. What's striking is his consistency; he's hit the over on 2.5 assists in each of his last four outings. Playing away doesn't seem to phase him either, as he continues to dish out the assists, hitting that mark every time on the road recently. With an expected stat value of 3.57 and a hit rate of 100% in his last few games, placing a wager on Wembanyama to go over 2.5 assists feels like a savvy move. He's ready to make a statement against the Clippers.
