Bulls vs. Pacers
Pascal Siakam Over 36.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-115)
By Chris Prince
This is a smash spot here for Pascal Siakam against this awful Bulls defense that has really struggled with bigs this season.
Chicago ranks 24th overall in defensive efficiency, and no team has allowed more points per game to power forwards than the Bulls.
Chicago is also in the bottom-10 in both rebounds and assists allowed to power forwards, and Siakam has shown a nice all-around game this season, with this number set just slightly above his season average of 34.8 PRA.
He has eclipsed this number in five of his last six games, with the only miss coming against the stout defense of the Thunder.
In two games against Chicago this season, Siakam has gone over this number in both games, averaging 42 PRA.
Pick: Pascal Siakam Over 36.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-115)
Lakers vs. Cavaliers
Donovan Mitchell Over 31.5 Points (-120)
By Chris Prince
Donovan Mitchell has been on an absolute tear of late, taking a whopping 80 shots over his last three games and averaging 38 points per game over that span.
The Cavs will be without two key offensive contributors, Darius Garland and Evan Mobley, and with those two off of the floor this season, Mitchell has seen a whopping 5.3% usage bump (on top of his already sky-high usage rate).
Between his already massive shot volume and two of their better offensive pieces missing, I like Mitchell's chances to stay hot and put another big number on the board.
Pick: Donovan Mitchell Over 31.5 Points (-120)
Magic vs. Heat
Noah Penda Under 4.5 Rebounds (-125)
Noah Penda had a nice run of elevated playing time to start the month, but Orlando has since gotten healthy.
Penda has been limited to 14.8 minutes per game over the past five games. He's averaged three rebounds on six rebound chances in that stretch.
Franz Wagner is the only regular who is listed out on the injury report tonight.
So, Penda is probably looking at minutes in the mid-teens once again.
Pick: Noah Penda Under 4.5 Rebounds (-125)
Hornets vs. Grizzlies
Jock Landale Over 21.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-110)
By Chris Prince
While the Hornets have been much improved against bigs this season compared to what we have seen over the past few seasons, this number feels light, with Jock Landale playing a much bigger role without Zach Edey and Brandon Clarke.
He has posted back-to-back double-doubles and has shown the ability to beat this number in points alone.
He has topped this number in seven of his last nine games, and he has averaged 32 PRA over his last three games.
Pick: Jock Landale Over 21.5 Points, Rebounds, & Assists (-110)
Timberwolves vs. Mavericks
Max Christie Over 16.5 Points (+100)
By Chris Prince
We're getting a great number here on Max Christie, who has really stepped up for this Mavericks team in the absence of star Anthony Davis.
Christie has gotten much more aggressive on the offensive side, taking at least 13 shots in four straight games and 34 shots over the past two games.
He has scored over 20 points in four straight games and has gone over this number in seven of his last 11 games.
We also get the added benefit of Cooper Flagg potentially missing this game as well, which would put more on Christie's plate and likely send this number even higher.
Pick: Max Christie Over 16.5 Points (+100)
