As the Rockets gear up to face the Timberwolves, keep a keen eye on Tari Eason. He's been a standout performer lately, with an impressive hit rate of 15 out of his last 17 games. With an average of 7.2 points and 6.2 rebounds over his last five outings, he's consistently producing.

In fact, when playing away against the Timberwolves, he's racked up around 10.2 points and 5.5 rebounds per game.

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Timberwolves gear up to face the Rockets, all eyes will be on Bones Hyland and his scoring potential. However, the numbers suggest a compelling case for taking the under on his points total of 14.5. At home, Hyland has averaged just 13.8 points over his last five games, which is a stark contrast to his overall average of 16.6. Against Houston, he's managed just 8.4 points in their last five encounters, a trend that continues to favor the under, especially considering he's only hit this mark 11.7 times in past home games against them. With a solid hit rate of 15 out of the last 20 games at home, we see his scoring likely remaining below this threshold. This matchup could see him more focused on facilitating than dominating the scoreboard, making the under a savvy play.

Bones Hyland (Minnesota Timberwolves) Under 2.5 Threes Made (-127)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Timberwolves prepare to host the Rockets, all eyes should be on Bones Hyland and his three-point shooting. While he's averaged 2.8 threes over his last five games, his home numbers tell a different story-he's only hitting 2.4 threes at home. Against the Rockets specifically, he's averaged a modest 1.4 threes this season, even rising to just 2.3 at home. With a solid hit rate of 11 out of 17 over his last outings, the odds are looking tempting for the Under 2.5. And let's not forget, Houston's perimeter defense can disrupt shooting rhythm, making it tougher for him to find his mark. With the numbers stacking against him, targeting the Under on Hyland feels like a savvy move-especially with the Timberwolves poised to control the game tempo. It's a matchup that could easily keep him under that crucial threshold.
