Cade Cunningham (Detroit Pistons) Over 39.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-161)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When it comes to the Detroit Pistons' Cade Cunningham, there's more to the story than just great stats. This lad's been on fire, consistently hitting the mark on the home court. His recent average of 28.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 9.2 assists per game at home are impressive, to say the least. Now, he's up against the Oklahoma City Thunder, a team he's already run rings around, with an average of 16 points, 9 rebounds, and 8 assists per game at home in their recent meetings. His overall hit rate is solid too, with 8 out of the last 10 games and 4 out of the last 5 home games scoring above our target. With Cade's numbers and the Thunder's struggling defense, betting on him to go over 39.5 points, rebounds, and assists seems like a slam dunk.

Isaiah Joe (Oklahoma City Thunder) Under 3.5 Rebounds (-172)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Picture this: Isaiah Joe, the sharpshooting guard for the Thunder, is heading into Detroit to face the Pistons. Now, Isaiah's got a slick jumper, no doubt, but rebounding? That's not really his forte. In his last five games, he's averaged a measly 0.6 rebounds. When he's on the road? It’s marginally better at 1 rebound. Against Detroit? He's only managed to scrape together 2.2 rebounds, 2.5 when away. Essentially, Isaiah's more likely to sink a three-pointer from the logo than to grab 4 rebounds in a game. We've seen it time and again, nine straight overall, ten straight on the road - he consistently falls under the 3.5 rebounds mark. So, if you're looking for a prop bet for Thursday night's Pistons-Thunder game, you might want to consider betting under for Isaiah Joe's rebound total. Trust me, the stats don't lie

Julius Randle (Minnesota Timberwolves) Over 0.5 Threes Made (-233)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Alright, chaps, let's talk some roundball. Julius Randle has been on fire lately, to say the least. With a scorching average of 2.8 three-pointers made in his last five road games, he's been nothing short of a flamethrower from downtown. Even against the Blazers, he's managed to sink an average of 1.2 triples per game. Now, I know his average dips to 0.3 when playing in Portland, but we're betting he only needs to hit just one tonight. Let's not forget, he's been knocking down threes in 17 of his last 20 games overall, and 10 out of his last 11 on the road. Quite the sharpshooter, huh? Our model agrees, giving this bet a healthy 14.2% edge. So, I'd say Randle sinking one from the arc tonight is as good a bet as any. Lock it in!

Paolo Banchero (Orlando Magic) Over 0.5 Steals (-135)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Keep a keen eye on Paolo Banchero as Orlando Magic faces off with Los Angeles Lakers. Banchero's been in fine form lately, snagging an average of 0.6 steals in his last five outings, with that number climbing to 0.8 when he's jet-setting on the road. He's certainly no stranger to capitalizing on the Lakers' offensive slips, averaging 0.5 steals against them. And though it's true that his stats are lower when facing them away, it's worth noting his overall away hit rate is a solid 13 out of 17. The numbers suggest a great chance that Banchero will notch up more than 0.5 steals in this clash. So, taking the over on this prop could be a smart move for savvy punters. After all, Paolo Banchero seems to have a knack for getting his hands on the ball when it counts.

Rudy Gobert (Minnesota Timberwolves) Under 1.5 Blocks (-161)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

Let's talk about Rudy Gobert. He's a blocking force no doubt, but looking at his performance on the road, we might want to reconsider. When faced against the Portland Trail Blazers, he averaged a mere 0.8 blocks per game. Also, in his last 5 away games, his blocking numbers averaged at 1.6, just scraping over our 1.5 target. But here's the clincher, in recent games overall, his average blocks slip down to 1. Gobert's been a little block-shy, it seems, and it's hard to envision any surprising leaps against the Trail Blazers. So, as Rudy takes on the Portland hardwood, we're looking at a solid bet for him falling under 1.5 blocks. It's an intriguing play, one that's backed by a consistent trend in Gobert's away performances. Let's just say, we're not banking on a blocking spree from him tonight.

Isaiah Hartenstein (Oklahoma City Thunder) Under 4.5 Assists (-161)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

If you're looking for a solid under play on Thursday night, set your sights on Isaiah Hartenstein. The big man's been struggling to dish out dimes, especially on the road. In his last five away games, Hartenstein averaged a paltry 1.2 assists. Even when squaring off against the Pistons, his assist numbers don't exactly soar, averaging just 2 assists in his last five away matchups. Now, here's the kicker: Hartenstein's been batting a perfect 100% on hitting the under in his last 17 games overall and his last 11 road games. So, while the Oklahoma City Thunder venture into Detroit, consider Hartenstein for under 4.5 assists. The data strongly indicates that his passing game isn't likely to heat up in the Motor City.
