Zion Williamson (New Orleans Pelicans) Over 30.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-130)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Keep your eye on the New Orleans Pelicans' powerhouse, Zion Williamson, in their showdown against the Phoenix Suns this Saturday. Williamson has been on fire on the road recently, hitting the over on points, rebounds, and assists in five of his last six away games. Moreover, his performance against the Suns specifically has been nothing short of stellar, with his average combined stats even higher when playing in Phoenix's backyard. Even though he's on the road, his combined points, rebounds, and assists against the Suns typically exceed 30.5, and that's just the kind of tenacity we're banking on this game. He's on an absolute tear, and there's no sign of this freight train slowing down. So, if you're looking for a smart bet this weekend, Zion's over 30.5 is one you won't want to overlook.
