Gui Santos (Golden State Warriors) Under 5.5 Rebounds (-172)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Golden State Warriors gear up to face the Phoenix Suns, keep an eye on Gui Santos' rebounding total, specifically the under 5.5 line. Santos has been a valuable contributor recently, but he's not quite the rebounding machine some might expect. Averaging just 4.8 boards over his last five games, his numbers dip further against the Suns, where he's managed only 4.2 rebounds in their recent matchups. Away from home, that number barely edges up to 4.8. Given the Suns' pace and the presence of strong rebounding bigs, it's plausible Santos may find himself outside of the paint more often than not. With a hit rate of 9 out of his last 13 games falling under this mark, betting the under at 5.5 feels like a strategic play. He may impress in other areas, but on the glass, the odds favor a quieter night for Santos.
