Marcus Smart (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 15.5 Points + Assists (-109)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishingAs the Lakers prepare to take on the Rockets at home, all eyes will be on Marcus Smart, particularly when it comes to his points and assists. The current line of 15.5 feels a bit high given his recent performance. Over his last five games, he's been averaging just 6.2 points and 5.2 assists, which combined barely scratches the surface of that total. When facing the Rockets, Smart has historically averaged only 7 points and 2 assists, a trend that's even more pronounced in home matchups, where he's managed just 7 points and 5.5 assists. With a hit rate of 10 out of his last 12 home games favoring the Under, it's hard to ignore the evidence. Given these numbers and the current stakes, targeting the Under on Smart's combined points and assists might just be the smart play this Sunday.
