Trey Murphy III (New Orleans Pelicans) Under 9.5 Rebounds + Assists (-152)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the New Orleans Pelicans gear up to face the Los Angeles Clippers, all eyes will be on Trey Murphy III, but not necessarily for a standout performance. With the line set at 9.5 for rebounds and assists combined, it's worth considering the under. Over his last five games, Murphy is averaging just 4 rebounds and 2 assists, hardly the kind of production we need to clear this threshold. At home, those numbers dip even further, to 3.8 rebounds and only 1.4 assists. Against the Clippers specifically, he's averaged just 4 rebounds and 3 assists when playing at home, aligning perfectly with this under bet. With an impressive hit rate of 7 out of the last 7 games for the under, and the Pelicans' overall tendency to lean on other contributors, Murphy might find it tough to exceed 9.5. Sounds like a smart play to me!

Kris Dunn (LA Clippers) Under 11.5 Points + Rebounds (-133)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Pelicans gear up to face the Clippers, Kris Dunn's recent numbers suggest he may struggle to hit that 11.5 points and rebounds mark. Over his last five games, Dunn's averaged just 5.8 points and 3 rebounds-solidly below that threshold. Even when playing at home, where he typically sees a slight uptick, he's only managed 7.4 points and 2.4 rebounds in that span.Against the Clippers, his averages dip further, with just 8.6 points and 2.4 rebounds in their last matchup. It's telling that he's cleared this combined total only once in his last four games. With the Clippers' defense tightening up recently, and Dunn's overall performance not showing signs of a breakout, taking the under looks like a smart play. With an expected stat value of only 8.39, this prop bet offers a compelling opportunity to capitalize on his current form.

Dejounte Murray (New Orleans Pelicans) Under 6.5 Rebounds (-145)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As the Pelicans gear up to host the Clippers, it's a prime moment to consider betting the under on Dejounte Murray's rebounds at 6.5. While Murray has shown flashes of brilliance, his recent numbers tell a different story. He's averaging just 5.46 rebounds in this matchup, and his last five outings have only seen him grab about 6.4 overall, dipping to 6.2 at home. Against the Clippers, he's averaged 5.6 boards, and even when playing at home, he's only managed 7. That lackluster performance against this particular opponent combined with a 3 out of 4 hit rate in his last four games suggests that the under is a savvy play. With the Pelicans looking to build momentum, don't expect Murray to exceed expectations here. This bet feels solid, and the data backs it up-target the under with confidence.
