Kevin Durant (Phoenix Suns) Over 17.5 Points (-455)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Look, folks, we've got a prime opportunity on our hands with Kevin Durant in the upcoming Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors face-off. KD has been on fire, effortlessly surpassing the 17.5 point mark in 10 of his last 11 outings. His precision doesn't falter on the road either, hitting the over in his last six away games. Durant's got a knack for lighting up the Rockets, averaging a neat 27.6 points in his last five encounters. And with Houston's home court defense giving up an average of 27.8 points, there's little reason to doubt KD's potential for a high-scoring game. An expected stat value of 24.76 points further bolsters our belief. So, are we betting on Durant to go over 17.5 points? Absolutely, it's too tasty to resist. Happy betting!
