Cody Williams has been a solid contributor lately, but as the Pelicans face off against the Jazz, it's worth considering a different angle for the young forward. Despite averaging 5 rebounds over the last five games, his away performances tell a different story, where he's only pulling down about 4.4. Against the Jazz, his numbers dip even further, averaging just 2 boards when playing in Utah. With the matchup leaning toward a more perimeter-oriented game, Williams might find fewer opportunities to grab those rebounds. Moreover, his recent track record shows he's hit the under in 7 of his last 9 games, including 3 out of 4 away contests. Given these trends and the expectation around 3.74 rebounds, betting on him to stay under 4.5 offers a compelling narrative. It's a calculated play that aligns with what we've seen lately.
Kyle Filipowski (Utah Jazz) Under 9.5 Rebounds (+100)
Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Utah Jazz gear up to take on the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes might be on Kyle Filipowski, but this matchup could spell trouble for his rebounding totals. Despite averaging a solid 10.4 rebounds over his last five games, his numbers dip when he's on the road, registering just 8.2 rebounds on average away from home. The Jazz have a knack for boxing out, and Filipowski's numbers against them suggest this could be a tougher night-he's averaged only 8.4 rebounds against Utah, and if you look at his last six away games, he's hit the Under on 5 of those occasions. With an expected stat value of 8.7 and a recent hit rate of 75% on the road, betting the Under 9.5 rebounds for Filipowski seems like a smart move in this matchup.
Brice Sensabaugh (Utah Jazz) Under 4.5 Rebounds (-114)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Utah Jazz gear up to face the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes will be on Brice Sensabaugh and his rebounding performance. But here's the kicker: targeting the under on his rebounds at 4.5 seems like a smart move. Over his last five games, Sensabaugh has averaged just 3.8 boards, and when we zoom in on his away outings, that number dips even further to 3.4. Against the Pelicans, he's averaged only 3.5 rebounds per game, which is below our threshold. With the Jazz's current rotation and the Pelicans' frontcourt presence, it's hard to see him surpassing that mark. His recent performance also suggests he's only hit the over in one of his last six games. Given these trends and his expected stat value hovering around 3.51, putting your chips on the under here feels like a solid, data-backed play.
Saddiq Bey (New Orleans Pelicans) Under 5.5 Rebounds (+108)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Pelicans prepare to face the Jazz at home, Saddiq Bey's rebounding numbers suggest we should lean towards the under on his 5.5 total. In his last five outings, Bey has averaged just 4.6 rebounds, with a slight uptick to 5.8 when playing in New Orleans. However, against Utah, he's managed only 4.6 boards on average, with 5.2 at home-numbers that indicate a struggle to consistently hit that mid-range mark.Moreover, his recent form shows he's only cleared 5.5 in five of his last eight games, and overall, he's hit the under in 10 of his last 20 home games. Given these trends and the Jazz's solid rebounding defense, it feels like a smart play to back Bey to stay under that threshold. With an expected stat value of 4.9, the under seems not just reasonable but a compelling choice as well.
