New Orleans Pelicans vs Denver Nuggets: Christian Braun Under 9.5 Points (+215)
Odds correct at time of publishing
The Pelicans can be a tough match for the Nuggets, especially with their strong inside game. Denver has been letting opponents shoot a lot of three-pointers and grab plenty of rebounds, but they also tend to keep their turnovers low. Christian Braun's scoring might be limited since the Pelicans defend well, and he could struggle to find his rhythm.
Betting on Braun to score under 9.5 points makes sense here. Since the matchup is close, the risk is that he could have a surprising breakout game. But with New Orleans likely focusing on limiting his opportunities, this feels like a solid pick.
