As Tre Jones steps onto the court against the Wizards, expectations for his three-point shooting should be tempered. While he's had a decent overall hit rate recently, the numbers tell a different story when he's away. In his last five games on the road, he's averaged just 0.8 threes made, and against the Bulls specifically, he's only managed a paltry 0.2 per game. With the Wizards' defense focusing on limiting perimeter shots, it's hard to see him surpassing the 1.5 mark. Jones has found success at home but struggles significantly on the road, particularly in this matchup, where he hasn't hit a three in his last encounter. Given that the odds suggest a 72.5% chance of him staying under, this bet seems like a smart play, especially considering the context of his recent performances. Keep an eye on this one; it feels like a solid under wager.
Leonard Miller (Chicago Bulls) Under 1.5 Threes Made (-161)

As the Wizards gear up to face the Bulls, all eyes will be on Leonard Miller, but I'm eyeing the Under on his threes made at 1.5. Despite Miller's potential, he's been a bit shaky from beyond the arc, averaging just 1.6 three-pointers made in his last five games, which also includes an alarming trend against the Bulls-he hasn't made a single three in their last encounters. Going into this game, the data points to a considerable dip in his shooting against Chicago, particularly as an away player where he's struggled to find his rhythm. With a solid hit rate of 10 out of 16 overall but only 3 out of 20 while on the road, the conditions suggest that his scoring from deep might falter this time around. Given these factors, the Under 1.5 seems like the savvy move for this matchup.

As the Wizards gear up to face the Bulls, targeting Anthony Gill for under 5.5 rebounds feels like a savvy play. While playing at home, Gill has averaged just 5 boards over the last five games, and when the Bulls visit, his numbers dip even further-he's pulling down a mere 1.6 rebounds in their last encounters. With the Wizards grappling for consistency, it's telling that in his last 20 games, he has only exceeded this mark three times at home.Moreover, the context of this matchup plays right into our hands. Chicago typically limits opponents' rebounding opportunities, making it even harder for Gill to hit that 5.5 threshold. As he's projected for only 4.53 rebounds tonight, the under is not just a hunch; it's grounded in recent performances and matchups. With Gill's hit rate favoring the under significantly, this is a bet you can confidently place.
Collin Sexton (Chicago Bulls) Under 3.5 Rebounds (-135)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As the Chicago Bulls head into Washington, all eyes should be on Collin Sexton's rebounding numbers, particularly when considering the under at 3.5. While Sexton has shown flashes of brilliance, his recent performance tells a different story. Averaging just 2.0 rebounds in his last five away games, he's clearly struggling to make an impact on the boards outside of Chicago. Against the Wizards, where he's only managed 2.5 rebounds per game historically, the trend does not favor a breakout performance. Moreover, Sexton has hit the under in 8 of his last 8 away contests, and with a hit rate of 6 out of 7 overall recently, it's a pattern you can't ignore. With the Bulls focusing more on perimeter play and less on crashing the glass, it's tough to envision Sexton surpassing that 3.5 mark. Betting the under feels like a smart move in this matchup.
