Luke Kennard (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 19.5 Points + Assists (-106)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Lakers gear up to face the Thunder, Luke Kennard's scoring and playmaking might not make the impact many expect. Over his last five games, he's averaged just 9.6 points and 3.6 assists-numbers that fall significantly short of the 19.5 line we're eyeing. When playing at home, his contributions drop even further, with averages of only 6.4 points and 1.6 assists. Against the Thunder, Kennard's history is underwhelming too; he's managed just 4.6 points and 2.8 assists at home in their recent matchups. His overall hit rate shows a striking trend-only 2 out of his last 20 performances have seen him exceed this mark, including a remarkable 19 out of 20 at home. With those numbers in mind, taking the under on Kennard feels like a smart move in this matchup.

Luke Kennard (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 23.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-110)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Lakers prepare to face the Thunder, Luke Kennard's numbers suggest a solid opportunity to take the under on his combined points, rebounds, and assists set at 23.5. In his last five games, Kennard has averaged just 9.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 3.6 assists, which totals about 18.6-a far cry from the line we're looking at. When it comes to home games, his output dips even further, with averages of 6.4 points and only 1.8 rebounds. Historically, he's struggled against the Thunder, averaging a mere 7 points and 2.2 rebounds in their last encounters. With an impressive 14 out of 15 hit rate recently, and a perfect record of 7 for 7 at home, Kennard's recent form paints a clear picture: he's unlikely to breach that 23.5 mark on Wednesday night. This one feels like a no-br

Cooper Flagg (Dallas Mavericks) Under 39.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-112)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Clippers face the Mavericks, all eyes will be on Cooper Flagg, but betting on him to hit the over of 39.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists might be a stretch. Flagg's recent performances indicate a downward trend, averaging just 30.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 3.6 assists over his last five games. On the road, those numbers dip further; he's scoring only 23.4 points while dishing out a mere 6 assists. Historically against Dallas, he's averaged 23 points and has a solid rebound game, but his recent away form shows he's struggled to maintain offensive production, notably with just 2 assists. With a hit rate of 14 out of his last 19 games, including a perfect 10 for 10 in his last away contests, it might be wise to lean into the under here. Expect a defensive battle, and Flagg's numbers to fall short of that high mark

Luke Kennard (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 14.5 Points (-102)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Lakers face off against the Thunder, all eyes will be on Luke Kennard-but not for the reasons some might expect. With a points line set at 14.5, the under feels like a savvy play. Kennard's recent performance has seen him score an average of just 6.4 points at home over his last five games. Even against the Thunder, who he's averaged only 4.6 points against at home, his scoring has been muted. Additionally, the numbers tell a compelling story: in his last 20 home games, he's only eclipsed that mark twice, hitting the under in an impressive 18 of those contests. With an overall hit rate of 13 out of 15, it's clear that Kennard isn't the focal point of this offense. As the Lakers gear up for a crucial game, expect Kennard to play a supporting role-one that likely keeps him under that 14.5 threshold.

LeBron James (Los Angeles Lakers) Under 9.5 Assists (-139)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Lakers gear up to face the Thunder, all eyes will be on LeBron James, and not just for his scoring prowess. However, with the assist line set at 9.5, there's a compelling case for taking the under. Over his last five games, LeBron has averaged 8.6 assists, and at home, that number dips slightly to 7.6. He's also faced the Thunder recently, averaging just 5.6 assists against them, which drops to 6.6 when playing at home.This matchup favors a more scoring-centric LeBron, especially with the Lakers' offensive focus likely shifting to capitalize on the Thunder's vulnerabilities. Recent trends show he's hit the under in 16 of his last 20 games, with an impressive 8 out of 9 at home. Given these insights, it seems prudent to expect LeBron to fall short of that 9.5 mark against Oklahoma City.

Cooper Flagg (Dallas Mavericks) Under 32.5 Points + Assists (-112)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the Mavericks gear up to face the Clippers, all eyes will be on Cooper Flagg, but betting on him to exceed 32.5 points and assists feels like a stretch. His recent performances tell a story of underwhelming production, especially on the road, where he's averaged just 23.4 points and 6 assists in his last five outings away from home. While facing the Clippers, Flagg has managed only 23 points on average in their previous matchups, and he's struggled to make a significant impact, hitting the under consistently. With an impressive hit rate of 14 out of his last 19 games overall, it's clear he's more likely to stay below this mark, especially given that he's only eclipsed 32.5 points and assists once in his last five games. With the Mavericks away, the narrative leans heavily toward Flagg falling short of this total. Bet the under confidently!
