As the Detroit Pistons gear up to face the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes will be on Daniss Jenkins, but not for the reasons you might think. While Jenkins has shown flashes of brilliance, we're leaning towards the Under on his assists prop at 7.5. Over the last 20 games, he's hit this mark just 3 out of 20 times, demonstrating a concerning trend. At home, things don't get much better; he's only eclipsed this number in 3 of his last 16 appearances at Little Caesars Arena.The Pelicans generally play at a slower pace, which could further limit his opportunities to dish out assists. With an expected stat value of just under 5 assists and a hit rate that's been as low as 17% recently, it feels prudent to bet against Jenkins breaking the 7.5 threshold in this matchup. Trusting the trend here could pay off handsomely.

As we gear up for the clash between the Sacramento Kings and Orlando Magic, keep an eye on Malik Monk and consider taking the under on his assists at 5.5. While he's averaged 6 assists over his last five games, a deeper dive reveals a trend worth noting. On the road, Monk's average dips to 4.6, and against the Magic, he's at just 3.5 assists per game away from home. Given that Monk has hit the under in 17 of his last 20 away games, it's clear that he tends to distribute less when playing outside Sacramento. The Magic also present a solid defensive challenge, limiting opponents effectively. With an expected stat value of just 3.37 assists, it's hard to envision Monk soaring past that 5.5 mark tonight. This matchup seems ripe for the under to hit, so let's ride that trend.
Devin Carter (Sacramento Kings) Under 20.5 Points + Assists (-125)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
When the Orlando Magic face off against the Sacramento Kings, Devin Carter's recent performance suggests a compelling case for betting the under on his combined points and assists total of 20.5. Over his last five games, Carter has averaged just 12.6 points and 2.4 assists, numbers that simply don't align with the lofty total he's being asked to reach. What's even more telling is his performance on the road, where his scoring dips to 11.6 points and he struggles to make an impact with only 3.2 assists. Against the Kings, he's found the scoring tougher, averaging just 6.7 points, and shockingly, he hasn't recorded any assists in their last matchup. With a hit rate of 18 out of his last 20 away games staying under this number, it's hard to envision him breaking through against a defensive-minded Sacramento squad. This under bet feels like a solid pick.
Devin Carter (Sacramento Kings) Under 25.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-122)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Orlando Magic prepare to face off against the Sacramento Kings, all eyes will be on Devin Carter, but not for the reasons you might think. His recent performance suggests a modest night ahead, particularly when we consider his average of just 12.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.4 assists over the last five games. Playing away from home, those numbers dip even further-11.6 points and under four total contributions, which paints a stark picture.Against the Kings, he's averaged a mere 6.7 points and has struggled significantly in previous matchups, failing to register points, rebounds, or assists when playing in Sacramento. With an impressive away hit rate of 18 out of the last 20 games for unders, it feels like the smart play to bet on Carter falling short of the 25.5 mark tonight. Expect him to be a quiet contributor as the Magic look to rally on the road.
Devin Carter (Sacramento Kings) Under 20.5 Points + Rebounds (-106)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
Devin Carter's matchup against the Orlando Magic is shaping up to be a challenging one, particularly when you consider his recent performance on the road. Averaging just 11.6 points and 3.6 rebounds in his last five away games, he's well below the 20.5 mark for this prop. Against the Magic specifically, his average dips even lower, with only 6.7 points and a dismal 2.7 rebounds over their last five encounters. The numbers paint a clear picture: when he's away from home, Carter has failed to find his rhythm, hitting the under 17 of his last 20 road games. Given his current form and the defensive intensity the Magic bring, expecting Carter to suddenly leap past that 20.5 threshold seems optimistic at best. The data suggests a strong case for hitting the under here-Carter's struggles on the road are too significant to ignore.
Daniss Jenkins (Detroit Pistons) Under 25.5 Points + Assists (-118)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Detroit Pistons gear up to face the New Orleans Pelicans, all eyes should be on Daniss Jenkins, particularly for the under on his points and assists total set at 25.5. The numbers tell a compelling story; Jenkins has been a fixture in this line, falling under this mark in a staggering 18 of his last 20 games. At home, that trend only solidifies, with an equally impressive 18 for 20. While the Pistons will look to Jenkins for offensive spark, his recent performance suggests he's been more of a facilitator than a high-volume scorer. With an expected stat value of just 17.52, the under feels like a savvy move. Plus, the Pelicans' defense has shown a knack for stifling opponents in crucial moments. With Jenkins likely to find himself under pressure, betting the under on his combined points and assists seems like a smart play here.
