Jose Alvarado (New Orleans Pelicans) Over 1.5 Threes Made (-145)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Let's chat about Jose Alvarado, a player who's been lighting it up from the outside. Stepping into the spotlight for the Knicks' match against the Bucks this Saturday, Alvarado's on a hot streak. His last five games? He's been averaging 2.4 threes overall and 2.2 on the road. This guy doesn't seem to know the meaning of home-court advantage. In head-to-head matchups with Milwaukee, he's been a tad quieter, averaging just one three. But remember, we're only looking for two here. With an expected stat value of 2.07 and an overall hit rate nailing four out of four, Alvarado's consistency is hard to ignore. The Bucks have given up an average of 1.5 threes to their opponents on their home court. This just adds more fuel to the fire, pushing us confidently towards Alvarado for an Over 1.5 three-pointers made.
