While his recent numbers show an average of just 5 points and 2.4 rebounds over the last five games, let's not overlook the context. Alvarado's away games reveal a slight uptick-6 points and nearly 3 rebounds against this opponent.

Given his potential to exploit defensive lapses and the game's pace, taking the over on 9.5 feels like a savvy play with strong upside.
