Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Coby White has been on a roll lately, and with the Spurs facing off against the Hornets, this could be the perfect opportunity to back him for over 2.5 assists. Over his last five games, he's averaging a solid 4.4 assists, which includes an impressive 4.6 assists against Charlotte in their recent encounters. The Hornets have been generous defensively, allowing opposing guards to dish out about 4.7 assists per game, which bodes well for White's playmaking potential.What's striking is his current form: he's hit the over in all four of his last games, and in seven of his last eight at home, highlighting a growing chemistry with his teammates. Given that he's expected to deliver around 3.99 assists, the likelihood of him surpassing that 2.5 mark feels almost certain. With a hit rate that suggests he's finding his groove, it's time to ride the wave with Coby White.

Moussa Diabate (Charlotte Hornets) Under 10.5 Points + Assists (-135)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look ahead to the matchup between the Charlotte Hornets and the San Antonio Spurs, targeting Moussa Diabate for under 10.5 combined points and assists feels like a savvy play. The young talent has struggled on the road, averaging just 4.4 points and 1.2 assists in his last five away games. Notably, against the Spurs-who can be tough on defense-his scoring dips even further to a mere 1 point per game. His recent form is also concerning; over his last five outings, he's managed a meager 7.8 points and a single assist, which further underscores his inconsistency. With a hit rate of just 1 in his last 7 games away, it's clear that Diabate is finding it difficult to make an impact outside of familiar surroundings. Given these trends, it seems prudent to expect him to fall short of that 10.5 mark.

Luka Doncic (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 8.5 Assists (-147)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Lakers gear up to host the Nuggets, all eyes will be on Luka Doncic, but betting on him to fall under 8.5 assists seems like a savvy play. Over his last five games, Luka's averaged just 5.8 assists, and the trend continues to dip at home where he sits at 6.4. The Nuggets have shown they can stifle playmakers, with Doncic managing only 7.2 assists against them in their last home matchup. When you look at his recent form, he's hit that under in 9 of his last 12 games, showcasing a clear pattern of struggle in the assist department. At the current implied probability of 59.5%, it feels like a smart move to expect Luka to focus more on scoring against a tough Denver defense rather than dishing out assists. Look for him to be more of a scorer in this high-stakes clash.

Quentin Grimes (Philadelphia 76ers) Over 2.5 Assists (-625)

Averaging 5.8 assists in his last five games, he's well above the threshold of 2.5, and he's proven capable of distributing the rock effectively against Brooklyn, averaging 2.4 assists against them recently.What stands out even more is his impeccable record-hitting the over in all 11 of his last games. The 76ers' offense is humming, and with Grimes' growing chemistry with his teammates, it's hard to envision him not surpassing this modest line. Expect him to facilitate beautifully in this contest, making the over a compelling play as he looks to continue his stellar assist streak.
