Action PRO projects 76ers guard VJ Edgecombe for 7.22 rebounds today, an excellent 29.1% edge against the market when compared to his 4.5 line.
He has surpassed this line in four of his seven games in December, with totals of 6, 6, 5 and 6 rebounds in those games.
Edgecombe could benefit from facing a Dallas offense that ranks 25th in the NBA in points per game (113.0) and has a 46.0 FG%.
Back him tonight to go over his rebounds line against the Mavericks.
