Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Let's put our focus on Andrew Nembhard as the Pacers face off against the Lakers this Saturday. Nembhard's been a bit under the weather in terms of performance, notably, when the Pacers hit the road. If we look at his last five away games, he's averaged just 10.6 points and 3.6 rebounds - quite a fall from the lofty 17.5 mark set for this match. He's also had a less than stellar showing against the Lakers, managing only 9.7 points and 2.3 rebounds in away games. Now, don't get me wrong, Nembhard's a solid player, but the numbers speak loud and clear. His scoring and rebounding combo has fallen under the 17.5 mark in 10 out of his last 12 games, including 4 out of his last 6 away games. Today, it seems like the under on Nembhard's points and rebounds is the smart move.

When you're eyeing the Denver Nuggets' clash with the New York Knicks this Saturday, one name that should pique your interest is Jonas Valanciunas. See, when Valanciunas squares off against the Knicks, he's been known to bring his A-game. In their last five matchups, he's averaged a solid 16.8 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. It's clear he's got their number. Now, let's consider his recent form. Across his last five overall games, though his points may have averaged out to around 5.8, he's shown impressive rebounding prowess with 6.4 boards to his name. But it's on the road where Valanciunas really shines. His 'home away from home' stats are worth taking note of, with an average of 5.4 points and 6.4 rebounds. Out of his last 20 overall performances, he's surpassed our target of 10.5 points + rebounds

As we sink into our couches for an exciting Saturday night matchup between the Houston Rockets and Portland Trail Blazers, the talking point that's really got us buzzing is the player prop on Clint Capela. Now, Capela's not exactly a name that lights up the marquee - but when it comes to banking on over 3.5 points, this guy's a real thoroughbred. Just look at his recent performances. An impressive overall average of 7.4 points, hitting over 3.5 in his last five outings. And on home turf? Even better, averaging 8.8. Against the Trail Blazers specifically, he's been clicking at an 8.5 clip. So, while the Blazers are allowing an average of 15 points to their opponents, Capela's track record suggests he's more than equipped to clear that 3.5 mark. Backing Capela to hit over 3.5 seems like a slam dunk to me. Let's ride this

Kris Dunn (LA Clippers) Under 12.5 Points + Rebounds (-132)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

There's a certain allure in the underdog story, but when it comes to Kris Dunn's performance against the San Antonio Spurs, it's a smarter move to take the under on 12.5 points + rebounds. Dunn's recent track record tells us a story of struggle rather than triumph. Over his last five games, he averaged just 5.8 points and scrapes up around 3 rebounds. Even when surrounded by the hustle and bustle of away games, his numbers don't see much of an uptick, with a modest 7.4 points and 2.4 rebounds on average. When facing the Spurs, his averages aren't any more promising - a mere 6.8 points and about 3 rebounds. The model's implied probability of almost 57% and a 15.2% edge lean heavily towards under 12.5 points + rebounds. So, while we love an underdog, betting on Dunn to underperform seems the safer and wiser
