Magic vs. Raptors

Friday, March 15
7:30 p.m. ET
NBA League Pass

Jalen Suggs

Over 2.5 Assists (-140)

Suggs has been trending up in assists, averaging 3.3 helpers in nine games since the All-Star break after averaging 2.4 in 50 games prior.

The Raptors defense is one of the most generous when it comes to opposing assists, allowing 28.5 per game overall and 9.3 per game to point guards, per Hashtag Basketball, both third-most. Suggs has notched three or more assists in six of nine games since the All-Star break and dished four dimes in just 21 minutes in his lone matchup with the Raptors this season.

Bet to -170

Pick: Jalen Suggs Over 2.5 Assists (-140)


Hawks vs. Jazz

Friday, March 15
9:30 p.m. ET
NBA League Pass

John Collins

Over 9.5 Rebounds (-123)

Collins is averaging 10.1 rebounds per game in nine games since the All-Star break after averaging 8.2 rebounds per game prior.

Over his last 20 games, he has collected 10 or more boards 13 times. That trend should continue against his old Hawks squad – one that according to Hashtag Basketball has allowed the fourth-most rebounds per game to opposing centers on the season (16.0) and the third-most over the past month (17.1).

Bet to -185

Pick: John Collins Over 9.5 Rebounds (-123)
