Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons) Over 1.5 Threes Made (-192)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

If there's one player you'd put your money on to strike from downtown, it's Detroit Pistons' Cade Cunningham. This young prodigy has been steadily improving his three-point game, and when the Pistons host the Oklahoma City Thunder this Thursday, I expect him to step up. He's been knocking down an average of 1.2 threes at home, and against the Thunder, he's been even more successful, nailing 1.7 on average. Sure, his overall average is a slightly underwhelming 0.8, but let's not forget we're betting on a rising star who's got the home court advantage. With a projected stat value of 2.11, the likelihood of Cunningham surpassing 1.5 threes is quite promising. The Thunder's defense should be wary, because Cade Cunningham is ready to light up the scoreboard from beyond the arc.
