Yves Missi (New Orleans Pelicans) Under 6.5 Rebounds (+102)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As Yves Missi steps onto the court against the Sacramento Kings, the spotlight is on his rebounding prowess, but we might want to lean towards the under on his total of 6.5 boards. While he's shown flashes of brilliance, averaging around 5 rebounds in his last five games, his consistency on the road tells a different story. In fact, on the away court, he's averaging just 5 rebounds-far from the 6.5 line we're looking at. Even against the Kings, where he's historically managed 7.5 rebounds on the road, his recent form suggests he might struggle to meet that mark. Plus, with a strong hit rate of 4 out of his last 4 games, this might be the perfect opportunity for regression. Given the matchup dynamics and his current form, targeting the under feels like a savvy play as the game unfolds.

Jeremiah Fears (New Orleans Pelicans) Under 1.5 Threes Made (-132)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look at Jeremiah Fears ahead of his matchup against the Sacramento Kings, the under on 1.5 threes made seems like a savvy play. Despite his recent surge, where he's hit the mark in three consecutive games, let's consider the context. On the road, he averages just 1.6 threes, which dips to 1.0 against the Kings. This team knows how to defend the perimeter, and Fears has only managed to net 1.5 threes per game in their past encounters. With the Kings' defensive focus, expect them to close out on him tightly, limiting his opportunities. Moreover, his expected stat value sits at 1.1, suggesting that the odds are stacked against him reaching that 1.5 mark. Given the current trajectory and matchup dynamics, taking the under feels not just prudent, but likely.
