Amen Thompson (Houston Rockets) Under 27.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-125)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

The bet on Amen Thompson for Under 27.5 in the game between Charlotte Hornets and Houston Rockets is statistically supported. Thompson's average stats for points, rebounds, and assists in the last 5 games are lower than the outcome point. Specifically, when playing away, Thompson averages 14.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 3.8 assists, totaling 25.8, which is below the outcome point of 27.5. Furthermore, his performance against the Hornets, particularly when playing away, also stays under the set limit, averaging a total of 30 points, rebounds, and assists. This trend is reflected in his overall and away hit rates, which stand at 5/8 and 3/4 respectively. Ultimately, these stats suggest that the probability of Thompson staying under 27.5 points + rebounds + assists is high, making this a viable bet.
