Will Riley (Washington Wizards) Under 3.5 Assists (+116)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishingAs the Washington Wizards prepare to host the Chicago Bulls, all eyes will be on rookie sensation Will Riley. While his potential is undeniable, the numbers suggest a compelling case for taking the under on his assists at 3.5. Riley has shown flashes of brilliance, but let's not forget that he's been held under this mark in 10 of his last 13 home games. The Wizards' offensive flow often revolves around other key players, which limits his distribution opportunities. Plus, with a recent overall hit rate of 4 out of 5 falling under this threshold, there's a solid trend working in our favor. The Bulls' defense, too, has tightened up recently, making it tougher for any one player to rack up assists. When the ball moves, Riley may find himself more as a scorer than a facilitator. In a game where he's likely to play a supporting role, the under seems like a savvy play.
