Daniel Gafford (Washington Wizards) Over 0.5 Blocks (-244)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Daniel Gafford has been consistently strong in blocking, particularly when playing away games. His average block rate for the last five overall games is 2.2, which jumps to 3 for away games. This suggests his performance improves when not playing on home territory. His historical performance against the Indiana Pacers also supports this bet, with an average of 2.6 blocks overall and 2.2 when playing away. Furthermore, his hit rate in his last 20 games is an impressive 95% (19 out of 20), and he has a perfect record in his last 13 away games. Given these strong block statistics, there's a high probability that Gafford will achieve over 0.5 blocks in the upcoming game against the Pacers.
