Moussa Diabate (Charlotte Hornets) Under 10.5 Points + Assists (-132)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Charlotte Hornets head to San Antonio, all eyes might be on Moussa Diabate, but betting on him to surpass 10.5 points and assists feels like a stretch. His recent numbers tell a compelling story: over the last five games, he's averaged just 7.8 points and a mere 1 assist. When playing away, those figures dip further to 4.4 points and 1.2 assists. Against the Spurs, Diabate has struggled, netting only 2.8 points per game historically, and when on the road, that drops to a dismal 1 point. His overall hit rate is impressive at 13 out of the last 16 games, but the recent trend shows he's hit under in 6 of his last 7 away games. With the Spurs' defensive schemes likely focusing on limiting him, taking the under on 10.5 feels like a smart play here.

This is a prime opportunity for Wembanyama to showcase his versatility and contribute significantly in an essential statistical category.
