Scottie Barnes (Toronto Raptors) Under 6.5 Assists (-114)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Raptors roll into Cleveland, all eyes will be on Scottie Barnes, but there's reason to believe he might struggle to hit the over on 6.5 assists. Away from home, his numbers have dipped, averaging just 6.2 assists against the Cavaliers in their last matchup. While he's proven to be a playmaker, his recent form shows he's only cleared this mark in 3 of his last 4 games. Cleveland's defense is known for tightening up, especially against versatile players like Barnes, and they've been particularly effective in limiting assists. With an average of 5.07 expected assists factoring into this matchup, it feels like the under is the safer route. Given that he's only exceeded 6.5 assists in 10 of his last 15 away games, betting on the under seems like a smart play as he navigates a challenging Cavs' defense.
