Khris Middleton (Washington Wizards) Under 5.5 Assists (-1111)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Memphis Grizzlies gear up to face the Dallas Mavericks, all eyes should be on Khris Middleton's assist count. Targeting the under at 5.5 makes a compelling case-he's averaged just 2.8 assists over the last five games, consistently falling short of our threshold. Even when facing the Mavericks, who allow around 5 assists to opposing players, Middleton's recent numbers suggest he's been more of a scorer than a distributor. His last four outings show a perfect hit rate for the under, reinforcing the notion that he hasn't been facilitating as much as we'd like. With the Grizzlies' offense potentially leaning on other playmakers, it's hard to see Middleton stepping up significantly in this matchup. As the odds imply a staggering 91.7% probability on the under, this feels like a savvy play. Expect a quieter night for Middleton in the assist column.
