Isaiah Collier (Utah Jazz) Over 2.5 Rebounds (-169)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

When the Portland Trail Blazers face off against the Utah Jazz, all eyes should be on Isaiah Collier for a solid over on his rebounds prop at 2.5. Collier has been in impressive form, averaging 3.4 boards over his last five games, and he's even upped that to 3.8 when playing on the road. Against the Jazz, he's averaged 5 rebounds in their previous matchups, which rises to 6 when factoring in away games. With his rebounding prowess translating well against this opponent, it's no surprise he's hit the over in 7 of his last 8 outings. The numbers speak volumes; Collier is not just a player to watch, he's a player to bet on. Expect him to exceed that 2.5 mark comfortably as he continues to assert himself in the paint.

Brice Sensabaugh (Utah Jazz) Under 2.5 Assists (-179)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

As we look ahead to Saturday's matchup between the Portland Trail Blazers and Utah Jazz, targeting Brice Sensabaugh for under 2.5 assists feels like a strong play. Sensabaugh has been solid lately, averaging 1.8 assists over his last five games, but there's a tale to tell when it comes to his performances on the road. Away from home, he's managed just 2.8 assists, which is a step down from what you'd expect for this line. Against the Jazz-who have stifled playmaking lately-his average dips to 2.3 assists, and it's even lower when considering his away performances against them. With an impressive 8 out of 9 hit rate recently, it seems like he's been finding ways to contribute more in other areas rather than distributing the ball. Considering all this, the under on Sensabaugh's assists seems like the smart bet in this matchup.

Deni Avdija (Portland Trail Blazers) Under 17.5 Rebounds + Assists (-909)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Portland Trail Blazers gear up to face the Utah Jazz, all eyes will be on Deni Avdija, but betting on him to hit the over for rebounds and assists feels risky. He's been solid lately, averaging 10.8 rebounds and 6 assists over his last five games, but against the Jazz, those numbers dip. At home, he's pulling down just 10.2 boards and dishing out 5.6 assists. Against Utah specifically, his averages fall to 8.8 rebounds and 4 assists. So, when you do the math, his expected stat value hovers around 12.45, well below that 17.5 mark. Plus, the Jazz have a reputation for tightening up defensively, which could further limit Avdija's contributions. With an implied probability of 90.1%, it's hard to overlook this play. Betting the under here seems like a savvy move.
