Darius Garland (Cleveland Cavaliers) Over 8.5 Rebounds + Assists (-147)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Darius Garland has consistently exceeded the target outcome point of 8.5 in his last five home games, averaging 2.8 rebounds and 5.8 assists. His performance against the Hornets specifically is even stronger, averaging 3.2 rebounds and 7.5 assists when playing at home, which totals to 10.7, comfortably above the target. The overall hit rate also supports this trend, with Garland hitting the target in 14 out of his last 20 games, and 8 out of his last 11 home games. Although his average overall rebounds are relatively low at 2.2, his assist numbers are robust enough to consistently push his combined score over the line. Therefore, based on Garland's home and opponent-specific performance, there's strong statistical evidence to bet on him going over 8.5 in the rebounds + assists market.
