Kam Jones (Indiana Pacers) Under 4.5 Assists (+122)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishingWhen it comes to Kam Jones and his upcoming matchup against the Indiana Pacers, there's a compelling case for taking the under on his assist total of 4.5. While he's shown some promise, averaging 4.2 assists per game on the road, that number dips significantly against the Pacers, where he's managed just 2 assists in their last five encounters. Jones has been somewhat inconsistent, hitting the under in 3 of his last 4 games, and with a solid away hit rate of 15 out of 19, it's clear he's not a consistent distributor on the road. The Hornets, facing a Pacers squad that's been tough on playmakers, may limit his opportunities even further. With an expected stat value of just 2.76 assists against a team that effectively defends the perimeter, it feels like a smart move to lean towards the under on Jones' assists this Friday.
